When Patrick's father passed away in 2019, for myself as a mother, I was constantly secretly worried about how Patrick would cope with the loss of his father. Also for me, as a single parent, to have the “EQ language” to bridge the gap between us, mother and son. Personally, I didn’t want a doctor or therapist because I didn't want to come from something was 'wrong' in the situation. I was looking for more of an approach about the language, and communication so he and I can express how we feel and our needs around this. When I met Susanna, her approach in the very first consultation session was to understand our family and our unique needs and what we wanted to accomplish through our communication. We both loved working with Susanna - she has great energy, and is accommodating, as she customized the program to meet our family's needs. 

Now, we have a set of tools and strategies, and the language to use which have helped us to become more aware, regulate our emotions, and change from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset. Our goal to help us move through this situation was accomplished, but there were even more bonuses, like we are closer than ever. Patrick is now able to express anything he feels, positive or negative to me, and I am able to receive it without reacting or judging – there’s really a flow between us. Out of this, he was also able to express himself clearly at school, and when someone hit him or did something wrong, he could express to the kids and his teacher. This is such a great foundation that I have provided for Patrick and I am so grateful to Susanna for providing this program. Our life is richer and we are more connected than ever!

We decided to contact Susanna, following a friend's recommendation, to help our daughter while dealing with some period of anxiety. We were not really sure about what to expect, but the empathy with Susanna was immediate.

As the sessions progressed, our daughter started to have a more accepting attitude towards her anxiety and started to be able to manage it better. Susanna taught her some techniques to relax and encouraged her to talk about her emotions openly.

In parallel, Susanna provides very good material for parents to better understand their children's feelings and to support them in their journey towards emotion coaching their children.

We definitely recommend Susanna's program for children and parents.

As an educator, I am generally very antsy and suspicious when I have to entrust my own child to someone else. Susanna is one of the few education specialists I've met that I have 100% confidence in.

She has helped me be a better parent and a better human, and is exactly the type of educator we need to help us build a better society, comprised of well-adjusted, growth-minded and kind individuals.

Susanna has a big heart. She connects with each child and dearly gains their trust. Children feel comfortable to be themselves and are curious to explore and learn. Not only does Susanna bond very well with the children, she fosters the safe and trusting environment for children to engage and collaborate with their friends to develop social skills and form friendships.

These are the golden years for learning and will lay the strong foundation for the child’s agility and positivity in learning. Susanna has played a major role in transforming my son to a confident young boy with the love of learning.

Times were a little difficult last year with COVID, and none of us knew how to handle it. I am so glad that we reached out to Susanna.

Through the EQ program, she helped us so beautifully and I couldn’t imagine my relationship with my daughter being that beautiful. The way we started to think and speak to one another, discussing and understanding each other changed for the better. My daughter still remembers the techniques Susanna taught her to calm down and manage her anger.

It wasn’t just for the children, it helped me personally to look at things in a different way. Reaching out for help was one of the best decisions we made as a family.

I'm so glad we found Susanna - she is warm and understanding! Susanna caters her program according to my child and my needs. Susanna has so much knowledge and information that benefits my child and myself as a parent. She delivers what she promises and beyond!

This course is life changing for me. I honestly can say I feel happier as a parent and I can also see my child is happier because I have learned ways to connect and speak with them. Instead of having power struggles with my child, we are now able to connect and understand each other more and move forward.

“Susanna helps me solve difficult problems that sometimes I can’t solve myself and she helps me let out my feelings. We do really fun activities together, too!

I learned that if you ever get stuck on a problem, you can talk to yourself in the mirror, try to figure out some solutions. You can also do something that makes you feel good!”

“I learned the way to solve all the problems that my family is having. Because of Ms. Susanna, she could make my family have a better relationship because of things she recommended to us.

I felt like it was very fun when we played the activities and I think I learned a lot from that because it had FUN and makes my brain work out. I know what anger is and I know how to control it.”

“You are the best teacher ever! Thank you for teaching us social-emotional learning and how it is really important! And thank you for being a great mentor to me.”
