"These methods are distilled from over three decades of full-time professional practice, ceremonial leadership, and thousands of client sessions worldwide.. My work has been featured on television and in the press. I understand both the depth and responsibility of professional space-holding — and the challenges that can arise, as explored in my book: Becoming a Healer for Yourself & Others.

I offer grounded guidance, structured supervision and clear professional standards as you expand your skills, strengthen your practice and deepen the outcomes you create for clients."

"I would wholeheartedly recommend this course.

Sue is extremely authentic and teaches from the heart. From her experience she is able to offer you tremendous insights into healing and combines this with a real, down-to-earth and practical approach.

On the course you meet amazing people with incredible skills. You also receive and give a great deal of healings in the sessions so brilliantly led by Sue.

It was a great experience and has kick-started a great adventure for me. Thank you.”

"‘Sue’s healing course was amazing!

Sue completely steps aside and holds a powerful, safe healing space.

You are taught to journey into the hidden realms to find lost fragments of your soul, and into your shadows to bring them into the light.

You learn to open up to your true self, to stand in your own power. It is a process of becoming whole. We were given tools to live in alignment and sovereignty so we can be of the highest service possible.

These tools are helping me to navigate my way through this time of great change and uncertainty and to help others to do the same."
