I’m Susan, the heart behind Hummingbird Holistics—a space devoted to energy healing, soul exploration, and the beauty of becoming. I’m a therapist-turned-energy alchemist, blending the transformative magic of Reiki, chakra work, Gene Keys, Human Design, and intuitive guidance to help you remember who you truly are.

Over twelve years ago, I knew nothing  about the energetic body. “Chakras” were just words I’d heard in passing—until a dear friend and healer introduced me to the world of energy work. What began as curiosity soon became a path of deep healing. Reiki/energy healing, meditation, and energy awareness helped me through physical pain, grief, anxiety, and years of disconnection from my body. Slowly but surely, I began to feel rooted, peaceful—even blissful—simply by being still and learning to tune in.

As someone who naturally lives in my head but feels deeply with my heart, energy work brought me home to myself. I followed the threads of my curiosity through training, personal practice, and eventually into sharing this work with others. I never set out to be a Reiki practitioner —but the more I surrendered to the process, the more I saw its impact, not only on my own life but in those I worked with.

Professionally, I have a diverse background—from corporate life to academia, two master’s degrees, and years spent raising my children. But at the center of it all has always been a call—a quiet, persistent voice urging me toward something deeper. I finally stopped ignoring it. Helping others reconnect with their inner light, heal from old patterns, and grow into the fullest expression of themselves is my life’s work.

Today, I walk the edge where healing meets mystery. My work blends the wisdom of the chakras, the Gene Keys, Human Design, and intuitive insight—always with compassion, presence, and a deep respect for your personal path. I believe that healing is for everyone. You don’t need certifications or perfect practices to begin. You just need willingness, a little curiosity, and the courage to begin again.

I’m also a mother, wife, sister, daughter, and loyal friend. I love live music, hiking in the woods, wandering new places, and dreaming of warm winters in the rainforests of Costa Rica or Panama. I’ve known grief, joy, trauma, and transformation—and I hold space for all of it, in myself and in you.

This is your invitation to explore your energy, deepen your self-compassion, and remember who you are.
