Testimonials

“Susanne helped me discover my inner strength by tapping into my existing knowledge and true capabilities, while setting goals that genuinely matter to me rather than what I thought I “should” want.

~ Eileen P., Non-Profit Professional

“I had a complimentary session with Susanne yesterday and it was quite helpful in bringing more clarity to a new and rather complex project I am working on.”

~ Anyes G., Entrepreneur

“I appreciate the thoughtful, clarifying questions that helped me process a dilemma in a relationship I’ve been struggling with. I felt seen and supported.“

~ Lynn F., Retired Teacher

“Just had my first Coaching Seminar and can I just say how excited I am to put things into action. Susanne asked the right questions and brought new things to my attention so that I feel confident in taking the steps needed to move forward with my goals.“

~ Heather P., Veterinarian Tech

“ARISE has significantly contributed to my personal and professional growth. It has helped me to clarify my long-term goals and understand the motivations behind them. I’ve become more self-aware and confident, especially considering my age and the unique paths I’m exploring. The most impactful coaching strategy has been the use of thought-provoking questions, which have pushed me to delve deeper and reflect on aspects I wouldn’t normally consider.“

~ Mariam M., Student

“ARISE has helped me become more intentional about my goals and more confident in how I approach challenges. I’ve noticed positive changes in my self-awareness, communication, and ability to reflect rather than react.”

~ Mehlika A., Student

“ARISE coaching has been a positive and empowering experience. It has been the perfect combination of encouraging and challenging while allowing me to address areas of change with excitement and confidence for what’s ahead. Dr. Suzanne has been absolutely wonderful. She has listened, reflected, supported, and offered resources for my continued growth. As a very busy business owner, I was reluctant to add coaching to my schedule, but I am beyond grateful that I did and it has greatly impacted me and my community.”

~ Jewels, Business Owner
