People I Work With
These are some of the most common themes clients bring to our work together.
These patterns often intensify during midlife transitions — but this work is for any woman
who recognizes them, regardless of age or life stage. If you’re unsure, feel free to reach out.
I’ll help you figure out whether we’re a good fit.
Women with chronic anxiety patterns
If anxiety has been a constant undercurrent — not crisis-level, but always there — I personally understand that experience. I work with women who are ready to stop managing it and start changing the pattern beneath it.
Chronic stress patterns
If stress has become your baseline — not tied to any one situation but just always running in the background — that's not a personality trait. It's a pattern your nervous system learned, and it can be changed at the level where it was formed.
Overthinkers and high-functioning worriers
You appear capable and composed on the outside, but inside your mind rarely stops. I work specifically with women who are exhausted by their own thinking — and ready for something that reaches below the thought level.
People-pleasers and perfectionists
If you've spent years prioritizing everyone else's comfort over your own, or holding yourself to impossible standards, I see that clearly. These patterns run deep — and they respond beautifully to this work.
Entrepreneurs and professionals
High-achieving women often carry their anxiety most quietly — because functioning well has always been the expectation. I work with driven women who are ready to stop trying to act calm and actually feel it.
People who've tried therapy or mindset work without lasting results
If you've done the work and still feel stuck, you're not the problem. Understanding a belief and actually releasing it are two different things — and they happen at two different levels. I work with women who are insight-rich and change-ready — and just haven't worked at the right level yet.

About Susan
A little context to help you feel the person behind the work.
My background is in engineering, where I was trained to find root causes — not manage symptoms. That lens shapes everything about how I work. I came to MAP through my own experience: patterns I'd carried since childhood that therapy, mindset work, and multiple other approaches hadn't been able to touch. When subconscious repatterning work shifted something at a level nothing else had reached, I needed to understand why — and eventually became certified in the method myself.
Today I work with women carrying chronic anxiety patterns — overthinking, overwhelm, people-pleasing, perfectionism, negative self-talk — who are done trying to cope their way through it. Sessions are on Zoom, in group or private format.
If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

What Clients Love About Susan's Work
A few words from people who've experienced their work. (Individual results may vary)
"I know I was skeptical before I tried this approach, but it works so well. I was struggling with fears about my work and my life choices — and both are resolved. I no longer felt that way after only one session. It is extremely relaxing and takes very minimal participation."
Carey
"Something that was so vivid and had such a strong emotion for me now — three weeks out — seems so far distant. The emotional connection to this is amazing. And I didn't even have to tell you what it was. My HRV has been consistently up by 10 points since our session. My body's resilience and stress balance seems measurably better."
Lea, Licensed Nutritionist
"The session itself was so relaxing and...easy! It really required little effort on my part."
Karin, Entrepreneur
"I'm emotionally lighter. I don't feel so heavy in my mind, so pessimistic, so angry. There are different layers that are peeling off. I just don't feel as emotionally bogged down as I used to."
Cynthia
"Before, if I got triggered, I would get really angry — it was almost like PTSD. But it doesn't affect me now. I'm not triggered by those memories anymore."
Joan
"Everything we have worked on has 'disappeared' from my thoughts — as well as negative thoughts and things I used to say to myself. I feel 'freed' from them. I am grateful!"
Lynn
"Through this work, Susan has helped me release a lot of subconscious baggage, including grief, fear, and complex emotions — and I no longer struggle with chronic anxiety."
Esther, Professor
"It's amazing how my life has changed! I keep saying, 'Where are these symptoms that I've been dealing with these past two months?' I don't get panic and anxiety attacks anymore!"
