From the outside, you look like you have it all together, but inside you’re exhausted, disconnected and quietly wondering why a life that looks so good doesn’t actually feel like yours.

You’ve worked hard, survived a lot and learned how to be the strong one, high-functioning and dependable, often at the cost of your own needs, desires and truth.

You might question yourself late at night, wondering if you’re ungrateful, broken or asking for too much. Deep down something more honest and alive is calling you.

There is nothing wrong with you. You didn’t fail. You adapted. What you’re currently feeling isn’t bad or some kind of flaw. This is your intelligence, sensitivity and wisdom waking up, inviting you to stop surviving and begin coming home to yourself.

It’s by no accident that you have found me.

I’m here to support you in your homecoming, to help you establish a strong foundation for living well in a chaotic world.

Through somatic practices, nervous system healing, and Soul reconnection, I’ll guide you back to the wisdom of your body and the truth of your being.

Together, we’ll tend to the roots, not just the symptoms, so you can feel grounded, empowered, trusting and deeply at home in yourself.

This is a [w]holistic approach to mental health.

You don’t have to walk it alone.

For over a decade, I have had the opportunity to teach and support thousands of beautiful souls individually and through community classes, workshops, retreats and events.

I've had the privilege of walking alongside women, non-binary and queer folks during profound life transitions, through times of trauma, grief, mental health struggles, substance misuse, spiritual awakening, pregnancy, parenting, marital struggles and cancer recovery.

Some of the most rewarding opportunities came from teaching trauma-informed yoga to first responders and veterans recovering from PTSD at Bellwoods Health Services, holding space for Sacred Medicine Ceremonies facilitated by Eddy Tony and co-facilitating with the Now and Zen Collective.


MY APPROACH IS RADICALLY DIFFERENT

I’m not a psychologist or psychiatrist by choice. I’m a holistic practitioner with lived experience, advanced training and with a strong calling towards understanding the deeper layers and history of mental health: not just what’s wrong, but what’s needed.

I’ve experienced firsthand how the western biomedical model can cause more harm than healing and that is exactly why I do this work. I am here to radically change these structures and the way we approach mental health.

Over the past 15 years, I’ve immersed myself in the healing arts: somatics, trauma, the nervous system, eastern healing approaches, wisdom traditions, mysticism, and shamanic practice.

I’ve developed a trauma-informed, spiritually grounded, body-based approach to mental health.

It’s this integrative, compassionate, embodiment work that continues to support the transformation of my clients.

I offer a unique path to healing that honours the whole person: body, mind, heart and soul.

We do more than just treat the symptoms.

YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE IF:

  • You feel stuck in behaviours that you know are not benefiting you.

  • You don’t want to solely rely on medications to make you functional.

  • You feel frustrated with doctors, family members, and friends who continue to misunderstand you and can’t see what you’re going through.

  • You want to get a grip on your triggers and reactions.

  • You want to live in harmony with a routine that you enjoy and can stick with.

  • You want stronger and more meaningful relationships in your life.

  • You’re exhausted in unfulfilling situations and see no alternatives.

“It felt as if I was living in a mental prison, unable to make clear decisions or release things that I intuitively knew I should.

My experience was a very expedited stored trauma release along with completely unblocking my mental clarity & self concept.

Sessions were very comfortable, private and safe to be vulnerable and truly lean into the work.

After completing the program I feel like a different human. Completely aligned, clear and at peace with myself.

This is my new lifelong therapy of choice. A very worthy investment for anyone in need of self discovery or support in healing.”

—CAROLYN HASSON

 

The answers are inside of you.

I’m here to help you find them.

My method works.

It has supported hundreds of women, non-binary and queer folks

through profound life transitions.

 

“Suse’s expertise helped me process very difficult experiences with the mental healthcare system in Ontario.

She advanced my healing journey more than the psychologists and psychiatrists that I have had to work with. 

She really knows how to heal post traumatic stress disorder with her kindness, love, and support.  She made me feel safe enough to begin to open up and grow. 

I have the utmost respect for her healing work.  I highly recommend her No More Mind Games program.”

— ANGELA R.

 

Healing happens through the body from the bottom up.

Instead of focusing only on the mind, like traditional talk therapy, we work with the body (somatically) to access deeper layers of healing:

Soul & Spiritual Level: By clearing trauma and karmic imprints stored in the subtle body and nervous system.

Emotional Level: By attuning to the messages of the energetic heart and processing emotions somatically.

Physical Level: By using specific movements and breath techniques to release, recalibrate and restore harmony.

This is the best alternative to talk therapy.

The quality of life you want is possible. You are not a lost cause!!! This world needs you and your gifts.

“As happens in adulthood I was facing a variety of issues at the time including friends and family members with cancer, a breakup, and coming out “late” in life and associated feelings of hiding.

I had been in talk therapy for about 10 months and had recently canceled it because - though I very highly valued it - I had hit a wall. We were talking in circles. My therapist got me to the point where I could face unpacking my repressed memories but I couldn’t get them to release.

I needed something different, and I asked the Universe for a new teacher. That’s when I met Suse and it had to have been divine timing.

The program, having specific prompts each week to consider, allowed me take a second pass at many things I had already considered but the accompanying embodiment and breathwork was new. And it’s what helped me break through my wall.

Suse has been an excellent guide and companion on my inward journey. I will be forever grateful for her support, her insight, her joyful presence in my life at just the right moment, teaching me just the right things to give me the courage to continue to move forward. Suse’s intuition and heartfelt kindness created a soothing environment and I always felt safe and held with her.

The twelve weeks I spent working with Suse were an investment in myself that I will forever be grateful for and proud of. There was no one else that could have fulfilled my needs in a better way.

Suse, I appreciate you more than I could express with words. Your presence and guidance is imprinted on my heart.”

NO MORE MIND GAMES

AN EMPOWERING 12 WEEK 1:1 MENTORSHIP

WHERE OVERTHINKING ENDS AND SELF-TRUST BEGINS.

No More Mind Games is a combination of trauma-informed practices, with evidence-based interventions to rewire the mind, regulate the nervous system and clear all blockages on a subconscious level, somatically, with expert support.

Working with the wisdom of the body

is better than talk-therapy alone.

This is where real transformation is born.

I created No More Mind Games because all of us need this to live well and harmoniously. This mentorship teaches you how to develop resilience and be adaptable to ever changing environments (workplace, home, social, economical, environmental, political etc.) we find ourselves in without losing our Truth.

Everyone who has gone through this 12 week journey reports feeling: more at peace, more clear, more loving, more compassionate, and more confident in themselves, their choices and actions.

These transformations are meant to last well beyond the 12 weeks. You will have perspectives and tools that you can use in years to come and that will surely change your life.

“No more mind games - was a deeply transformative program.

Suse’s guidance and consistency was the framework for the magic to unfold. Each week our sessions were on time and full of potent reflections, exercises and explanations of homework for the next session. The Tao blessings Suse incorporates are really potent and well received.

I have found that the tools provided and exercises we did were easily integrated into my daily life. The shifts in my thoughts, emotions and behaviours are permanent and liberating.

I highly encourage anyone seeking a compassionate, loving and wise guide to contact Suse today, and take the worthwhile step forward for yourself and those around you. Thank you Suse”

“When I began working with Suse, I was feeling disconnected from my body and my life.

I was constantly feeling like my input and output were never balanced. On top of that I was feeling super stuck on the follow through required for meeting my goals.


In every session with Suse, I felt very supported and comfortable opening up to be all that I am.

Suse never made me feel strange or uncomfortable during our sessions, even when I got weird.

I would say that a few times I felt anxious going into a session, and even quite resistant to wanting to do the somatic work, but when I got there - Suse did an excellent job at adapting to my energy and helping me to be with what I was going through on the day.

Since we met, I'd say that
I've noticed some big shifts in my comfort with a slower life. I always wanted and craved the slow life, but it was hard to actually do (lots of unsafety in my body). Since working with Suse, I see my path now and am way more comfortable waiting for the things, rather than forcing them. I'd also say that I have finally begun healing my maternal wounding. That's also been really cool and fun.

My relationship with my body has also changed quite a bit. I came into the program frustrated with my chronic pain, and now I feel hopeful that my chronic pain stuff is on it's path to healing, which feels sexy tbh. For the first time in a while I thought to myself, I think we are on the cusp of feeling GOOD in my body, rather than just surviving through travelling pain.

My relationship with myself has shifted in that I deepened my trust with my body. I've trusted my body for a while and am not new to this kind of work, however there was a deeper layer that I felt less confident with that relationship. The work in this program really gave me back that confidence. I would say I can also feel like my issues with physical intimacy are no longer inaccessible. Intimacy was something I felt so confused about, like I couldn't get to the root of the problem, no matter how hard I tried. Now I feel like I've dug through 25 layers and I'm now just a few layers away from being able to move through that stuff. (this is something I've been struggling with for years now, so this is also a HUGE win for me!)

Working with Suse was truly like working with a friend. I always felt safe, supported, encouraged, and validated.
She's different from other mentors I've had in the way that she always asks for permission before going into new places. I felt like she was the second paddler in my canoe of healing.


My favourite part of the program: well, where do I begin I loved the hands on support, the flexibility to be in-person or online, the drive out to Suse's home, the holotropic breathwork, the random body shaking and new tools, the workbook. Honestly, this program was so fun and so well thought out.

If someone is thinking about working with Suse, I would say YES!! DO IT!”

—HEATHER LISTER


This program is for you if:

  • You’ve experienced something life-altering such as: a loss, betrayal, divorce, career change, hit rock bottom, displacement, abuse, spiritual awakening

  • You’re struggling with your mental health

  • You’ve experienced a mental health crisis or spiritual emergency

  • You’ve received a diagnosis

This program is NOT for you if:

  • You want medical advice or a diagnosis

  • You are currently in crisis and/or needing emergency care*

    *The holistic approach to mental health and healing arts services I provide are for long term growth, transformation and soul expansion, not acute crisis help.

“I began No More Mind Games at a stage of my life where I was emotionally and physically unhealthy.

It was a slow build up of life experiences culminating into an early sixties woman I was having trouble recognizing. To put it succinctly, I had lost the plot of my own life.

Suses 12 week program has been a wow. From my very first session with Suse I knew I was in safe hands. The 12 week program she has built herself has a very unique flow. Each week seems to build upon the last so organically, with tough weeks followed by a week of lightness and freshness.
With Suses wealth of knowledge and wellness tools she somehow helped a somewhat muddled and spiritually broken woman onto a great ride to recovery.

Key take aways for me are;
+ Grief counselling
+ Trauma counselling
+ Support for addiction…I quit smoking!
+ Coping with anxiety and depression
+ Healing old relationship wounds
+ I learned so many new coping skills I use now in everyday life.


I will be continuing sessions with Suse.
My door has just been opened and I know the possibilities are endless now for a healthier life. It seems every few days I am having simple breakthroughs in thought that have come from the layering of the program. I tell everyone Suse is the real deal!”

Although I had already done extensive work on my own healing

— everything from traditional therapy and EMDR to books, workshops, and deep self-reflection — I still felt profoundly stuck in both my grief and my life.

It felt as though I was endlessly pushing a boulder uphill, exhausting myself while never truly moving forward. I couldn’t fully explain or put a finger on what was missing, but deep down I knew I needed something different.

When I found Suse, I immediately connected with both her and her approach. From the very beginning, I felt seen, safe, and understood in a way I hadn’t experienced before.

Slowly and compassionately unpacking the layers of my grief and nervous system has not only helped me heal, but has completely transformed the way I show up in my relationships, my parenting, my work, and my life as a whole.

The somatic practices have felt profoundly different from anything I had previously experienced.

They didn’t just help me “cope” — they helped me reconnect with myself and truly begin to heal at a deeper level. I can honestly say this work has helped rewire my nervous system and created lasting change in my life. I am deeply grateful for Suse, her guidance, and the incredible work she does.

If you need to peel back your own onion, re-examine patterns and find stillness, then I can not recommend enough! 

—NATALIE COYLE


THIS program is specifically designed to give you the tools you need to transform and heal yourself.

You are your own best healer. I’m here to guide and teach you how to access your own healing capabilities and to support you along the way.


HERE’S HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS


We’ll meet weekly (12 weeks total) 1:1 online (zoom) or in-person (Baltimore, Ontario) for 2hrs.

Our first session will be an introduction where I get to learn more about you, your health and life history, ‘symptoms’ etc. to better understand your needs.

Each week you will be given soulwork (aka homework for the soul) to be completed during the time between our sessions.

During each session we will review the theme, your personal week and your soulwork. Then, inspired by that, we will proceed with an intuitively guided embodiment session.

Embodiment sessions may include:

  • Movement (trauma-informed yoga, restorative yoga, hatha yoga, functional movement, somatic movement, trauma release exercises, qi gong, dance)

  • Tao healing hands (soul level energy healing, soul song, soul language)

  • Sound healing (mantra, chanting, singing, sound baths, binaural beats, curated music)

  • Meditation (visualization journeys, loving-kindness, mindfulness, yoga nidra)

  • Breathwork (somatic breathwork journeys, various pranayama techniques)

  • Art making (various mediums)

  • Forest bathing

By the end of the program you will have a fully designed roadmap that you’ll use to nurture your healing journey afterwards; with the option to continue to work together and go even deeper into the topics and practices explored.

“Every week gave me something new to learn.

I feel I have a variety of tools and strategies to use to continue my journey of personal growth. Suse taught me with her intuition and adapted the teachings to what she felt I needed in the moment.

Her voice was so calming and powerful as she lead me through the breathwork, visualizations, healing words and movements. Thank you Suse, for the wonderful treasures throughout this course that you gave with your full heart. I am eternally grateful”

— PRABHJOT SIDHU

Topics that are covered include: 

  • navigating negative self-talk and self-sabotage 

  • getting to the root

  • inner-child work

  • nature and the psyche

  • breathing better

  • ancestral healing

  • future-self work

“Suse’s “No more mind games” 3-month program is almost indescribable until you go through it yourself,

but since I’m writing a testimonial I’m going to describe what it meant to me.

The program was nourishing for the soul both emotionally and spiritually, as Suse helps you ground in your own beliefs and truths while letting go of the outside noise. In addition, Suse also gives you tangible tools to assist in helping with the external noise and/or negativity when it surfaces.

The experience will probably mean different things to different people as there are so many good nuggets of soul work and emotional exploration, but for me the overall experience left me with a firm grasp & trust in myself, my abilities and that I deserve to show up as am.”

— ANGELA MAGILL

Imagine in only 3 months shifting from:

Constantly second-guessing yourself

and overthinking every decision…

. …to listening to your intuition with confidence

and acting from self-trust instead of fear.

High-functioning but secretly exhausted

and emotionally numb…

…to having steady energy, emotional clarity

and a sense of aliveness that carries into your work,

relationships and home life.

Lying awake at night questioning

your life and your choices…

…to falling asleep with ease, feeling calm in your body,

clear in your decisions and fully trusting yourself.


“Working with Suse has been unmatched. We dove in together for 12 weeks through her No More Mind Games offering.

I was unsure of how the program timeline would translate or if I would feel ready for each week’s topic or “soul work”, but each week everything seemed to fall into alignment.

Her somatic and breathwork woven into our time together felt truly transformative. I’ve done sound baths and breath at high end spas and yoga studios and nothing has felt as immersive as my experience 1:1 with Suse. I felt entirely submerged and able to find clarity and process tucked away thoughts and emotions.

I highly recommend — trust that you’re ready, you will not regret the work. Endlessly grateful to have crossed paths with Suse.
