Stories Of Clarity
Read what they say about us from their words!
"My first experience with tapping was with Susan. Her ability to make me feel at ease created a warm and open environment that allowed me to release the blocks that have been holding me back. After the tapping session was complete I felt a sense of clarity and renewed purpose. It was a wonderful experience.."
Wendi O'Neill - Mother & Entrepreneur
"Working with Susan has been life-changing. Her calm presence and deep understanding helped me process years of stress and self-doubt. Each session felt safe, supportive, and empowering. I walked away with practical tools I use daily to stay grounded and confident. Truly a gift."
James R. – U.S. Army
Veteran
"Susan has helped me to get through a recently-
developed fear of flying and significant
procrastination around money matters. She was able to identify issues and layers that I couldn't see for myself. It is my honor to endorse Susan Ahlstrom and to give her my highest recommendation as an EFT practitioner!!
