"I would recommend Susannah a million times over if I could. She was the perfect guide for this experience. I have suffered from chronic restless legs syndrome for years, and it had recently become much worse. I've watched my mother struggle with it her entire life. She can barely sleep and has tried countless medical treatments, including prescription medications, without finding lasting relief. Seeing that, I became determined to explore other possibilities. That search led me to energy work, where I kept hearing that chronic stress and trapped emotions might be contributing to what I was experiencing. Eventually, that journey brought me to this guided psilocybin experience with Susannah. The experience itself was different from what I expected—but it was exactly what I needed. What stood out most was how incredibly intuitive, thoughtful, and prepared Susannah was. She anticipated needs and questions I didn't even know I had. Every detail was considered. I felt completely safe, deeply supported, and in exactly the right environment to do this work. It's now been two weeks since my experience, and my restless legs have improved dramatically. Beyond the experience itself, Susannah helped me process what came up and gave me practical tools to continue integrating the insights and extending the benefits into my daily life. I truly cannot recommend her highly enough. Her compassionate, therapeutic approach paired perfectly with the psilocybin journey, and I am incredibly grateful for her guidance."

“I have always felt apprehensive about plant medicine, but I had read the emerging evidence that they can be deeply healing for trauma wounds. Susannah skillfully and compassionately held me in my fears about the medicine. My journey wasn’t easy, but Susannah’s wise, grounded, and loving presence allowed me the reassurance and confidence to trust myself and my heart in the process. While in the medicine, she felt like a protector or an angel for me. That was deeply reassuring. Then, after the journey, using her skills as a psychotherapist, she helped me make sense of what I had experienced and develop a new understanding and internal narrative about my trauma history. Afterwards, with her help, I experienced a sense of liberation from old patterns that had caused such suffering over the course of my life. Now, eleven months later, I look back on that pivotal journey with the medicine and feel gratitude for Susannah’s wise facilitation. She helped me trust the process, integrate insights, and ground my healing in a way that has been lasting.”
