"Sue’s nature and energy was astounding. She was able to understand me like no one had ever been able to, she allowed me to go through my process of letting go and out the other side with a rare clarity and steadfast strength.
I felt I was held in a deep loving kindness that allowed me to relax and go as deep as I needed to without fear. She felt to me as solidly rooted as a mountain and as peaceful & caring like a true mother and allowed me to grow like a wise one.
Thank you Sue for being the powerful kind and loving woman you are who helped me so deeply when I really needed to be freed from grief and mental bondage. I will always recognise your skill as a healer, teacher and medicine woman."

"‘When I met this amazing woman, I was searching for help and healing around certain issues which have plagued me my whole life, issues relating to addiction, toxic relationships and codependency.. and lots more besides.
I have worked with Sue both on a personal level (the inner) and also on my home, (the outer reflection of yourself) and my life has really blossomed in recent years and Sue has played an enormous role in my healing journey.
Sue is an incredible force for transformation, who has done the journey herself and walks her talk.
I know I wouldn’t be where I am now if I hadn’t met Sue.’"

"I really do appreciate what you have done for me in terms of facilitating my soul’s healing and allowing me to move forward from distress and despair to hope, peace, ‘living’ joy and contentment.
I offer my sincere gratitude for the profoundly positive effect of the deep ‘Rite of Passage’ healing you gave me and for the time you took during our session together to heal those emotional wounds and negative burdens that were so detrimental in inhibiting my path moving forward.
In essence, I truly feel like your healing has cleansed, reset and reconnected me with my soul and I am so thankful for your help."

"Eveniet quam natus et commodi minus consequuntur enim iure magnam nam fugit voluptas."

What other people say:
"It was deep joy to meet Sue and a true blessing to receive her powerful healings.
Sue helped me connect to a part of myself that I had been searching for since childhood, she also helped me to empower myself with strong boundaries and clear energies that did not serve me.
Since the healings, I feel, see and think differently, in a nutshell, it is a huge relief and my life is taking a quantum leap because of it.
A confident, gentle, sure and kind approach helped me to feel safe.
I thoroughly recommend working with Sue Holmes, a skilled and powerful woman."

"“There are no words to describe it! I received so many deep teachings.
The most incredible moment was when Sue returned part of my soul to me. I felt calm, peaceful and strong and that has remained. Sue held and guided the session with grace, ease and humility and I felt safe and held by her.
Each of my sessions with Sue has gone deeper. I feel refreshed, rejuvenated and brand new after each one. They have helped me to restore balance in my life, my fear and anxieties have lifted. I feel grounded, strong and powerful.
I've received a lot of sessions in my life, but Sue’s has been by far the most profound and life changing. Her experience and gifts are unique. She weaves so many elements together seamlessly with grace and presence. The clarity and creativity that have flowed into my life since know no bounds. I am now truly dancing with life.”

"I had the immense blessing of a shamanic healing session with Sue.
I entered into this sacred space not knowing what to expect but my guides had led me there and I nervously trusted the call to receive her healing.
What a gift this was to be.
Sue took me into a deep state of being with love, compassion, huge wisdom and complete competent knowledge of her craft.
I felt held, safe and was able to trust deeply in the medicine she channels and creates.
If you have the opportunity to take a journey with this wise sister….bless yourself. I’m glad I did.”."

What other people say:
"In the restaurant business you get star ratings and at the top you get Michelin Star Chiefs.
If I was a Healing Critic I would vote Sue as a top award as high as a Michelin Star Chief.
Sue is the genuine thing.
I would highly recommend her."

"'When I booked Sue Holmes, I trusted her completely but I wasn’t really sure what to expect. OMG! What a shift. I feel like my old pattern of over-giving and putting up with harmful relationships and clients has evaporated. Not only have I said no to a number of projects but I’ve said yes to myself and my next level. Sue is a powerful shaman for other shamans and powerful women. She’s professional and kind.’”

"Sue is amazing! She has this ability to make you feel at ease, with her infectious laugh, and at the same time deeply honoured and securely held, by the loving kindness she brings to all her work. She has such integrity and is really committed to being in service to others.
If you haven’t had the pleasure of working with Sue, then I’d suggest you hurry up. This lady is in demand!"
