The Journey Together
Reflections on healing, growth, and the sacred bond between humans and animals.
Animal Communication
Healing & Insight
Behavior & Harmony in the Home
Addressing anxiety, aggression, and household dynamics.
Jennifer L., Charlotte, NC “I had searched how to understand my anxious dog for months. After just one session, we finally understood the root cause of his anxiety. The connection Susan made was immediate, and we have seen a huge improvement in his behavior. She is truly gifted! Thank you so much for helping Buster.”
Catherine S, Saratoga Springs, NY “I recently adopted two senior male cats. They had some behavioral issues and fought often. I reached out to Susan to help me understand why they exhibited these aggressive behaviors and what I could do to improve their relationship. Susan had insights into what caused the behavioral problems and how to address them. Their relationship has improved significantly as a result of Susan’s recommendations.”
Jean M., New Rochelle, NY “Problem solved! I had worked with two trainers on how to get our one dog stop pulling while we walked. I had Susan ask our dog, “Will you please quit pulling?” and our dog replied, “Why don’t you get a longer leash?” I bought a retractable leash, and we’ve been enjoying our walks ever since! I had always thought that this type of leash would have made our walks much more difficult. Susan also helped us to better understand some of the stress and anxiety that our dogs were feeling.”
Lisa N., Long Island NY “Susan is one of a kind. I’m extremely skeptical about animal communication as a whole but Susan really amazed me. I’ve got multiple cats, she was spot-on for each and every one of them. I was impressed by her skills and guidance in helping my feline tribe.”
Michelle B., Neustadt-Germany “I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your guidance and help with our newly acquired rescue Liam. I am so glad we had our session. Some of the things you said didn’t immediately resonate with me or seem to apply to our dog but man was I wrong. As the weeks went on I continued to hear your voice in my head as time and time again the things you said began to ring true. I certainly plan to contact you again for more help and insight as we grow together. Thank you will all my heart.”
Kirk W. Johnson., Northern New Jersey “I had adopted a dog last September from a rescue organization that told me the dog had been traumatized and needed a nice, quiet home where she would be the center of attention. This described my house perfectly… She got on that bed and didn’t leave it except to go outside or eat. Despite my talking and petting and soothing her, she never interacted or even looked at me. This went on for three months with no change until I sought Susan’s help… Susan told me that the dog was longing to be in a home with lots of activity, children, dogs and bouncing balls… The dog, now named Zoe, started running and playing the afternoon she got there. Now, nine months later, she is a happy, well-adjusted active dog… All of this occurred due to Susan’s ability to communicate with animals. I can’t recommend her services enough, she changed this dog’s life for the better!”
Tamara S., Long Island, NY “Sue was so professional and compassionate in helping my family with my brothers dog who experienced an epileptic attack. She was less than a year old at the time and we were all so nervous. Sue tapped into what the dog was going thru and gave us very helpful suggestions on how to best relate with her. I am so grateful that it’s been over a year with no further episodes! The family has learned a lot on how to relate together and create a more harmonious environment at home. In addition, Susan helped understand what happened to our pussycat, Mozart, who disappeared about 3 years ago. We are finally able to put that story to rest, honor his memory, and move on. Thank you Susan for helping us!!!! You are truly gifted!!”
Yvonne G., Northern New Jersey “There are gifted people who see beyond the veil of physical; Susan is one of them. Susan came highly recommended to help me with an important decision with my foster dog, BEAR; Do I keep him or re-home him? She was able to communicate with Bear and share with me his feelings, my feelings, and an attitude prescription for me. It was an awakening, we kept Bear! He is fabulous. I needed to change. I am forever grateful to Susan and highly recommend her.”
Amy S., Upstate New York “I was skeptical about doing an animal communication session with my four dogs, but after hearing what Susan had to say it was clear she was very real and genuine. Everything she told me was right-on and I would definitely recommend her.”
Grief, Loss & The Afterlife
Connecting with beloved companions who have passed.
Grace R., Los Angeles, CA “Losing my dog, Fluffy, left me heartbroken, so I reached out to Susan for an Animal Afterlife Communication Session. Right away, I knew she truly connected with him—Susan knew specific details about Fluffy’s personality and our private routines that she couldn’t possibly have known beforehand.
The most incredible surprise was that Fluffy wasn’t alone. Susan revealed that both my late mother and my aunt came through, sharing validating details that proved they are watching over him on the other side. Knowing Fluffy is with them has brought me a profound sense of peace. Susan has an extraordinary, sacred gift, and I cannot recommend her afterlife sessions enough!”
Paige R., King George VA “When my small animal, Henry, passed unexpectedly, I felt something so much more than grief. I was shattered to the core. I sought Susan’s counsel to explore WHY this felt so different than other animal losses I’d experienced. After our session, I felt like a huge weight had been gently lifted off my heart. Susan helped me explore the intricacies of my relationship with Henry, in this life and others. True healing took place during my chat with Susan. I can’t even describe the feeling, it was so profound. I highly recommend Susan’s guidance, healing, and special soul skills to anyone seeking truth and healing.”
Dick H., Colorado “I lost my best and dearest companion last year. I was devastated and inconsolable without hope for comfort or resolution. I found Susan and Two Bear Healing Arts and she contacted my little guy in the afterlife. I wasn’t convinced before our session but during and after, I am certain that Spanky is in the afterlife and doing quite well. Our contact did not minimize my hurt and longing but it was real and moved me forward in acceptance. I’m very grateful for Susan and her unique gifts.”
Shalon C., Baltimore, MD. “I was completely lost and devastated after the tragic passing of my soul dog Gizmo… I literally lost my sense of self and no longer trusted my judgment or feel any joy for all things that I once cherished. I knew in my heart I wanted/needed to reach out and find a way to communicate with my fur baby. I was guided & blessed to find Susan… Giz just came bounding in with all his love & exuberant energy. It was him.. completely him… After our session, I felt a wave of calm.. of the release of all the guilt & pain… Without getting into details, the bridge that Susan provided.. the fact that I was able to communicate w/ my dear beloved fur baby, healed my heart beyond words.”
Anthony P., Marlton, NJ “After losing my beloved companion (twelve years), Cleo, my heart was broken… I was in deep grieving until my session with Susan Squittieri. Susan helped my family and me better understand our physical relationship with Cleo and our spiritual relationship with her. Our session started our healing journey and our path forward to exist without her and be at peace knowing that we still have our spiritual relationship and connection.”
Nancy M. Elgin, IL. “I was so upset after my wonderful dog Ricky died. I had a hard time grieving. Talking to Susan helped my grieving process knowing that my beautiful Ricky was at peace and happy. It helped me to move on with my grieving.”
Lisa R., Upstate New York “I lost my beloved pet, Rusty this year and had contacted Susan to connect with him… During the session the name MARK arouse, but I do not know a MARK. Days later I encountered a MARK and thereafter came across a dog of a friend of my husband’s. The dog acted so much like my Rusty and was very loving with me. Its owner commented that she never saw her dog respond to anyone like that before. I feel that this encounter with this dog was a message from Rusty letting me know that he was ok.”
Dawn McM., Catskill, NY “I was suffering and grieving from a few great losses… Reaching out to Susan was a godsend. She not only gave me the peace and connection I so needed and craved but also the guidance and direction from my furry guardian angels that helped me get thru such a painful time and begin to make sense of it to move forward.”
Melanie K., Athens, Georgia “Susan is a blessing. She has helped me understand my animals needs and wishes during her death and dying process and put me at ease. Thank you so much for your incredible love for animals and gift to communicate. Without your guidance and support I don’t know what I would have done. Many thanks and much love.”
Judith L. & Bob C., Teaneck, NJ “We came upon some literature on Susan and Two Bear Herbs. We had Susan see one of our beautiful cats when he became terminally ill. We did so figuring what we could lose. However, what we gained was both very helpful and comforting to us. We have always been open minded but never anticipated that through the use of her gift of Animal Communication we have added a new dimension of our understanding of reality. We were amazed at the things Susan communicated to us through our baby. She relayed so much that there was absolutely no way she could have known and has helped us through the grieving process of having now lost him. Reiki is a wonderful energy healing practice and her gift of being so in tune with it is a blessing that we are so happy to have had and will continue to have her be apart of our lives with our beloved animals. Thank you so much again Susan and we really do look forward to our future experiences with you. Bob went on about his wonderful conversation with you. You really are so centered and a genuine soul that is to help people like us and our most precious treasured animals. Always our best.”
Lost Pets Found
Recovery stories with remarkable accuracy.
Cathy N., Allentown, Pennsylvania “My indoor cat, Big John, went missing inside the house, and after hours of frantic searching, I was completely panicked. I was convinced he had somehow slipped outside and was lost in the neighborhood. During the session, Susan was incredibly calm and grounded. She tuned into Big John and immediately assured me that he had not escaped the house. She explained that Big John was showing her a clear visual image of a chair, and she got a distinct impression of him being trapped and unable to move. I immediately knew that Susan was referring to my husband’s reclining chair. Sure enough, I went back and checked the mechanism under the recliner, and there he was—stuck and completely unable to free himself. If it weren’t for Susan, I would have spent days searching the streets while my poor cat was trapped right in my living room. Her accuracy, compassion, and specialized guidance during a terrifying time brought Big John safely back into my arms. She is the real deal!
Jonas and Claire., Georgia “My husband and I were completely desperate when our cat, Lennon, went missing for several days, so I reached out to Susan for a lost animal session. From the moment we connected, she brought an incredible sense of calm to a terrifying situation. Susan tuned into Lennon’s energy and told us he was stuck high up in a tree, completely paralyzed by fear. She provided specific visual images of his location, which allowed us to find him. It took time but we found him. Because of his height and terror, Susan recommended a specific rescue plan: calling a professional tree company to go up and get him. Amazingly, they agreed to come out and successfully carried out her plan. Susan’s unique gift and deep compassion didn’t just help us understand Lennon’s predicament—she gave us the exact guidance we needed to get him home safely. We are forever grateful!”
Christine C., Lagrange, NY “We contacted Susan when our cat Zazu went missing in August of 2014… Susan called us and gave us some details on what surroundings he was in. We went looking, using the description that Susan had given us, and after multiple phone calls back and forth, and constant questions, we were able to find Zazu. Zazu was in the exact spot that Susan had described. We were amazed and shocked how she was able to pinpoint his whereabouts with such accuracy.”
Anne P., River Vale, NJ “When our cat, Minoussa went missing, we relentlessly searched our neighborhood… That is when our neighbor told us about Susan… Susan told us to focus our search on a neighborhood 3 miles away from our house. She also said something that smelled was or had been around his neck… Ultimately we were able to locate our cat and bring him home. Although he did not have anything around his neck anymore, we noticed a strong smell. In the end, if it was not for Susan, we would never have extended our search so far away.”
Linda S., Woodcliff Lake, NJ “Susan Squittieri helped me find my cat Rusty who was missing for one month! With the aid of two separate animal communications between her and Rusty, I was able to place him in an approximate location by using landmarks given to me. Then she told me to put up signs everywhere. Near that location, someone who was taking care of him saw the sign!”
Mark and Sarah J., Scarsdale, NY “When our Golden Retriever, Bailey, bolted during a thunderstorm, we were frantic. We spent two days searching the local woods with no luck. Susan told us that Bailey was ‘resting near a structure that looks like a red shed but isn’t a house’ and that he was near running water. We realized there was an old pump house by a creek a half-mile away that we hadn’t checked. We found Bailey sitting right there, tired but safe. Susan’s ability to see through his eyes saved us days of heartbreak.”
Elena R., Danbury, CT “I was skeptical about animal communication until our indoor cat, Pete, got out. He had been missing for several days and we were losing hope. Susan told me he wasn’t far, but that he was ‘trapped behind something heavy and grey.’ She insisted he could hear me but couldn’t move. After a second, more thorough search of our own garage, we found him wedged behind a stack of grey cinder blocks and a heavy tarp. He had been there the whole time. Susan gave us the specific clue we needed to stop looking outside and look right under our noses —she truly saved his life.
David K., Warwick, NY “Our Beagle, Buster, is a wanderer, but this time he was gone for four days. Susan mentioned he was with a ‘kind person in a house with three front porch steps leading to a “blue door’ and that he was being fed. We canvassed the area looking for that specific house. Three blocks over, we found the house with the blue door—the owners had taken him in but hadn’t seen our flyers yet. Susan’s description of the environment was the key to bringing Buster home. I immediately got him a GPS tag after that so I never have to feel that helpless again!”
Michelle T., Bergenfield, NJ “After three weeks, we had almost given up on finding our dog Chloe. Susan spoke with her and told us Chloe was confused after running through the woods but could see a ‘large silver tower.’ This led us to focus our search near the local cell tower area, which was much further than we thought she could or would travel. We put up bright neon signs in that radius as Susan suggested, and a hiker called us that evening. Susan’s guidance on where to pivot our search changed everything. We now have our girl back thanks to Susan.”
Patty L., Garrison, NY “Susan provided such comfort during a terrifying time when our indoor cat, Pip, vanished. She told us Pip was very close to home and hiding under a ‘wooden porch with lattice-work’ and that there was a ‘smell of pine needles.’ She encouraged us to go out late at night when it was quiet. Following her advice, we did a midnight walk-through of the neighbor’s yard and heard a faint meow from under their lattice porch. Without Susan’s specific landmarks, we would have walked right past him.”
James W., Mahwah, NJ “Our cat, Jasper, had been missing for four days during a very hot week, and we were terrified. When I spoke to Susan, she told me that Jasper was alive but ‘contained’ in a place that smelled like old wood and felt very quiet. She described a structure with a ‘slanted roof’ nearby. We focused our search on a neighbor’s detached shed that had a lean-to roof. It turned out the neighbor had been working in there and Jasper had accidentally been locked inside right before the neighbor left for a weekend trip. Because of Susan’s specific description of the smell and the roofline, we were able to get our neighbor to open the shed and get him out just in time. He was severely dehydrated and very hungry. Susan’s accuracy allowed us to reach him before it was too late—she truly saved his life. Thank you!”
Valerie D., Nyack, NY “Our cat, Luna, had been missing for six days in the middle of a heatwave. Susan told us she saw ‘a lot of white lattice,’ a ‘water fountain,’ and felt a ‘cool, damp breeze.’ She explained that Luna was very close by but was too frightened to come out because of a fox that had been prowling the neighborhood. We checked our neighbor’s porch, which has white lattice skirting and sits right next to a stone water fountain in their garden. We found a small hole leading to a crawlspace, and Luna was tucked way back in the dirt where it was cool and she felt safe from the fox. Susan’s specific mention of the lattice and the fountain gave us the exact location to stop and listen until we finally heard her tiny meow.”
Brendan H., Clarkstown, NY “When our dog, Max, went missing after a car accident, we were terrified he had run for miles. Susan calmed us down and said he was ‘near a big green box’ and could hear ‘rushing air.’ She insisted he wasn’t as far as we thought. We walked the perimeter of the accident site and found a large green electrical transformer box near a highway overpass—the ‘rushing air’ was the sound of the cars overhead. Max was hiding in the thick brush right behind that green box. Susan’s ability to interpret what Max was hearing and seeing is the only reason we found him so quickly.”
Medical Insight & Reiki Healing
Understanding physical needs and energetic well-being.
Frances C., Nevada “Susan, is beyond amazing. We first contacted her when our six year old Maltese was experiencing long term health issues, and the veterinarians didn’t seem hopeful. It was when we contacted Susan and had a session with her, that we became enlightened through her telepathic communication with our pet and learned of our pets feelings and desires. We followed through with Susan’s suggestions and things improved immensely. Today, our pet is on the road to health and the doctors are amazed at her energy and vitality.”
JoAnn Finger., North Bergen New Jersey “The thing I’m most grateful for is the help she gave with my dog’s health issue. She saw an issue with her thyroid that my vet didn’t see. I got the right supplements for my dog and sure enough… she lost weight and her anxiety went away! Whenever there’s an issue I can’t figure out, I call Susan. She’s amazing!”
David C., Texas “The communication and healing work Susan did for our horse, Blue, was profound. Her ability to pinpoint the source of his discomfort was accurate, and the follow-up Animal Reiki healing helped him move much more freely. Highly recommend.”
Lauren L., New City, NY “Luna had been urinating outside her litter box for quite sometime so I contacted you to talk with her. With your communication and intuition you said there was something going on around the kidneys – they were energetically off. Well about a day or 2 after our phone session, Luna was distressed, restless and urinating very little and it was rust colored. I took her to the vet where she had an injection of amoxicillin. Ever since her infection has cleared, she has used her litter box.”
Camille L., Brooklyn, NY “I have 2 Red-eared Slider turtles and I use Susan Squittieri’s services to check on their inner well-being from time to time… Susan is able to accurately describe their personalities and relay to me any issues or imbalances that may not be visually apparent… In addition, the turtles seem to perk up after the Reiki that Susan provides as part of her sessions. Having Reiki skills in addition to animal communication abilities distinguishes her from other animal communicators.”
Elizabeth P., Northern New Jersey “I just wanted to let you know that during the reading you did indeed connect with my Luna. You said that she was not feeling well and I didn’t believe you because she had been fine that morning but when I got home she was indeed very ill. You have blown me away with your sensitivity.”
Mark D., Seattle, WA “I was skeptical about remote healing, but after my senior Golden Retriever, Max, stopped eating, I reached out to Susan. She immediately picked up on a sharp, localized pain in his back molar that we hadn’t noticed. We took him to the emergency vet and she was spot on. The Reiki she sent afterward seemed to speed up his recovery significantly. Max is back to his old self, and I am a true believer in Susan’s gift.”
Sarah T., Asheville, NC “Susan is a lifesaver. My rescue cat,Puss, was incredibly skittish and prone to sudden bouts of aggression. Through her communication, Susan explained that Puss was holding onto trauma in his nervous system. After just two sessions of communication and energy work and following her advice on adjusting his environment, Puss is calm, cuddly, and finally feels safe in our home. Her insight into his emotional state was incredibly precise.”
Michelle K., Scottsdale, AZ “Our show jumper, Starlight, was performing inconsistently, and we couldn’t figure out why. Susan did a remote scan and mentioned that Starlight felt a ‘pinching’ sensation in her hock that only flared up under certain pressure. She provided Reiki to balance the area, and we adjusted her tack based on Susan’s intuitive feedback. The difference was night and day at our next competition. Susan’s ability to bridge the gap between horse and rider is unparalleled.”
Robert H., Miami, FL “Susan’s medical intuition is uncanny. She mentioned that my dog, Finn, seemed to have an ‘itchy’ or ‘irritated’ feeling in his gut long before he showed clinical signs of an allergy. Because of her early warning, we purchased the gut microbiome test she suggested and switched his diet based on the results. We avoided what could have been a very expensive and painful crisis. She hears what our pets can’t say out loud.”
Elena G., San Diego, CA “What makes Susan special is her compassion. When my rabbit, Tula, was nearing the end of her life, Susan’s communication allowed us to understand Tula’s final wishes and comfort levels. The Reiki sessions provided Tula with such peace, and it provided me with the closure I needed. Susan doesn’t just help animals; she heals the whole family. I can’t recommend her enough for her sensitivity and accuracy.”
Insight, Intuition & Classes
Professionalism and deepening the human-animal bond.
Theresa J., Riverdale, NY “Susan is compassionate, genuine, and honest but most importantly she really cares. She effortlessly bridges the gap between the human and animal world. There is no denying her innate ability to communicate with our animal companions… Susan is truly indispensable to both humans and animals a like!”
Kate D., Upstate New York “The information I had received from the vet was confusing and contradictory and I really just wanted to know what Garfield was thinking and feeling so I could proceed according to his wishes… Susan was so spot on with her descriptions and detailed in her explanations that I had no doubt her talent to speak with animals was for real. It’s also quite funny to hear what your animals think of you and their environment!”
Kaitlin B of Lady’s Legacy Equine Rescue, Inc. “Lady’s Legacy Equine Rescue, Inc. has been utilizing Susan’s skills for 2 years now. We take in abused, neglected and slaughter-bound horses… Susan nailed it. She knew things about these horses that only we knew. She was able to determine who was slaughter-bound, who needed calming supplements and who had trust issues. We have never seen such a fast turn around in a horse.”
Susan R., Saugerties, NY “Susan works with great compassion, patience, and professionalism. Her animal communication session gave me great comfort and aided in the healing I was looking for. The animal communication class was very thorough… the groundwork has been well laid out by Susan.”
J.A., NY, NY “Susan has amazing insight. She works on the phone from a picture of your dog with an appointment set up in advance… All of us were skeptical, not expecting much. We received so much more and were truly amazed.”
Marlene S. Manhattan, NY “Susan is the real deal. She has an incredible gift for connecting with both people and animals. She will tell you things that will help you, your family and your pet, and that might even change your life!”
Kathleen A. “My one pug mentioned he wanted night lights and we recognized that his vision had taken a turn for the worse. He kept showing her his big brown eyes and now I know why! If you want to feel closer to your pet, need help solving problems, or for any reason really, I would highly recommend consulting with Susan!”
Elissa V., Northern New Jersey “The readings that I have had with Susan for my cats and dogs have been absolutely amazing! She connected very quickly and accurately with my animals after receiving no information from me. She described their personalities very well and indicated health issues that we had been dealing with. Most importantly, she provided feedback from my animals that helped me deal with some behavioral issues at home. Susan truly has a gift!”
Regina F., Valley Cottage, NY “Hi Susan, Just a quick note to say thanks so much for the session on Pharaoh. It was everything I expected. I feel it has brought me closer to him, in that I understand who he is, and what I need to do to make our life together happy, and joyful! I feel like we are becoming a team, and will keep moving forward in that direction. Thanks again, you are awesome!! Sincerely, Good and Plenty,”
Mary M., Rockland County, NY “Susan’s intuitive understanding of energy and her ability to connect with animals is quite remarkable. I would recommend her to those individuals who are interested in getting to know their animals on a deeper level.”
Kevin K., New City, NY “Susan went out of her way to accommodate us, despite very inconvenient circumstances. There were incredible “coincidences” (if you believe in such things) that occurred even before we met. Her kindness, abilities, and unselfishness can assist you in many ways, on many levels.”
Dawn S., Maryland “Hi Susan! Thank you so much for Teddy’s and my session with you. I love Teddy so much and the communication between the two of you did help me understand him so much better. Understanding Teddy is so important to me. I thank you dearly for this. Your gift of communicating with animals is truly beautiful. You are so exact with what they feel, what type of personality they have, their aches and and pains and how they feel about others in their life. I knew you would be good but I didn’t know you would be perfect! I thank you again for helping me understand my precious “little man” Teddy!”
Susan P., Mahwah, NJ “Susan is a compassionate, caring, and honest person who has a wonderful gift: she can connect and communicate with animals. I have had many animal communication sessions with her for many different reasons. I have always received valuable insight that has helped me to understand my pets. Really knowing your pets makes it easier to care for them. Understanding why they do the things they do can take the frustration out of a situation. Susan has helped me to strengthen the bond I have with each of my pets. She can help you find the answers you seek. She truly is amazing.”

Susan A., New York State: “You’re great! And I’m grateful! What a wonderful class and gifted teacher. Thank you so much for the opportunity to take your animal communication class. So interesting, down to earth, and informative with the added bonus of a well-thought-out manual to take home. It was perfect! Thank you again on thank you on behalf of all the animals and their people who you’ve helped and healed to better understand each other.”
Nancy C., Yonkers, NY: “I’m so happy that I attended Susan’s Beginning Animal Communication class. As a Master Dog Trainer and Animal Reiki practitioner, I am always trying to develop a deeper understanding of pets. Susan’s class was certainly the best step I could have taken to achieve a deeper connection with the dogs I work with. She is a gifted and disciplined teacher with a sincere approach to listening to the internal voices of our beloved pets. I would recommend her class highly as a way to have a more meaningful relationship with your furry family members and friends. Additionally, her well-developed manual serves me well as a reference guide.”
Michelle M., Nanuet, NY: “I attended this class to give me a better understanding of what I was sensing over the years with various animals, both my own and others. Susan’s teaching approach gives you the full background on the topic, practical advice, proper guidance as well as pointers on when you may be heading off the path. The written materials are well-researched, and the layout is logical and encompassing. Plus, what I call sensing experiences in class brings you full circle.”
Hanna M.: “I took Susan’s Beginning Animal Communication class. The class was very informative and easy to follow. Susan is an awesome teacher! She makes you feel at ease and welcome in her class. She has also transformed my life in many other ways by her suggested reading material. I highly recommend Susan as a teacher and her classes.”
Karen L., Fairfield, CT: “I was so impressed by how much thought went into the course materials. The manual is something I still refer to weeks later whenever I feel stuck. Susan has a way of making a complex topic feel very accessible and grounded.”
Skill Development & Real Results
Students share how the class helped them successfully communicate with animals and see immediate, tangible changes.
Elissa V., Northern New Jersey: “I had the pleasure of taking Susan’s “Beginning Animal Communication” and was very impressed! She is a wonderful teacher! Her class is very well organized, the information is easy to follow, and she is very clear with her presentation. She offers easy-to-use, simple, and effective techniques on how to begin communicating with animals. After instruction, we got to practice on several different animals and I think just about every single one of us, got some information about the animal we were communicating with correctly! Specific information like a favorite toy, favorite food, and personality. The class I participated in was small, intimate, and personalized; held in her comfortable home. She is highly skilled and a very good instructor because she is so clear in how she presents her technique. It was a fantastic experience and I would recommend her class to anyone interested in learning about animal communications whether you already have a little experience in doing so or are completely new to the idea. Susan definitely has something to offer! Best wishes!”
Sarah M., Nyack, NY: “I have taken an animal communication class with Susan and I have had several sessions with her for my 5 cats. The class was wonderful! I met some lovely, like-minded people and I learned some basics of animal communication. It was a relaxed, fun day and we all heightened our skills. It takes a lot of practice and I’m not entirely there yet, but Im much more confident after taking the class and learning to trust my intui1tion… With Susan’s help I was able to give Fia what she needed emotionally and literally the day that she spoke to Susan, the problem stopped. I am forever grateful for Susan’s help and so is Fia! I now have a different respect f2or Fi and our relationship is so much be3tter.”
David F., West Nyack, NY: “I’ve recently taken the Animal Communications course with Susan because I’ve always wondered if such a thing was possible. Well, I’ve learned that not only is such a thing possible but it is also easy to learn and apply to everyday life. All animals are in some form of communication all the time. It’s just learning to tune into their realms psychically4 to pick up on information. Like tuning your TV to the right station. It does take some practice in concentration however Susan’s style of teaching will help you to achieve a higher level in a very short amount of time. I can say that I had many connections with other people’s animals and they were able to validate my findings for me. This course on animal communication is invaluable to anyone who is looking to do this as a profession or just become closer with their animals.”
Jenna M.: “I attended a workshop about energetically connecting with animals. The group learned how to create a powerful and meaningful connection with an animal, to get into their headspace. The group was able to do this and even gain information from their own pet! It was an unbelievable experience.”
Robert P., Bergen County, NJ: “I went into the class a bit of a skeptic, but I was blown away when I was able to pick up on specific details about a classmate’s dog that I couldn’t have possibly known. Susan provides the tools to prove to yourself that this is real.”
Supportive & Personalized Environment

It meant so much that Susan took the time to conduct a full day’s class with just me. Her passion and love for her craft come through from the moment you walk in the door. Susan took the time to make sure I was comfortable with the material before moving on and allowed me to share personal experiences as they applied to the class.

Personal Growth & Connection
Students describe the spiritual and emotional impact the classes had on their lives and their relationships with animals.
John T., New Jersey: “Two Bear Healing Arts “Awesome Classes” I attended The Animal Communication Class, with no expectations and with truly not knowing what to expect. After taking the class I was more than just fulfilled, I was left enlightened and it opened my eyes to a doorway into a perspective I had not seen before. Three classes later, I have learned and grown that much more, all because of Susan. She helped me find my inner strength, my true inner self, and my abilities. Susan is far more than just a teacher, she is a mentor, a guide, and a friend.”
Serena H., NYC: “…I started out with animal communication sessions, then took the Animal Communications I Class, and have also booked a reiki session with her. I cannot recommend Susan enough, I feel so lucky to have found her. Thank you, Susan!”
Cindy M., Rockland County, NY: “I recently took the Beginning Animal Communication Class with Susan. Susan is a great teacher, warm, intuitive, and funny. She says that we all have the ability to “listen” to and communicate with our animal friends. We j8ust have to take the time to listen. I got so much from this class and it has really helped me to be able to communicate with both my own pets9 and animals in general. Thanks, Sus10an!”
Susan, White Plains, NY: “I thoroughly enjoyed the beginning animal communication class. I learned a lot about communicating intuitively with animals and about myself.

Thanks again. Peace and Light.”

Diverse Offerings (Reiki & Communication)

Rich T., Lyndhurst, NJ: “I recently took Susan’s class for Reiki and Animal Communications. The class was wonderful and Susan was a knowledgeable instructor.

Animal Reiki
Peace & Comfort
Rescue & Adoption Support
Karen W., Philadelphia, PA “Very calm and patient, Susan truly has a gift when it comes to animals. A dog named Sally that I had adopted from a local shelter 5 months prior to our session was still having a difficult time adjusting to her new home with me. Susan helped to communicate Sally’s needs to me and was able to help her to feel more comfortable. Susan also did 3 distant Animal Reiki sessions. Since then, Sally has become less anxious and is more trusting of me. Outstanding work and I would highly recommend Susan.”
Jessica H., Rockland County, NY “Susan has a way of speaking to the soul of an animal. My rescue dog, Cooper, had a severe fear of loud noises, but after a few combined communication and Reiki sessions, he is a different dog. He is more grounded and looks to me for cues rather than panicking. I can’t thank her enough.”
Robert P., White Plains, NY “The transformation in my dog Buster’s confidence after working with Susan is incredible. She didn’t just ‘fix’ the behavior; she helped me understand the root cause of his nervousness. Susan is truly an advocate for the animals.”
Remote & Distant Sessions
Sarah T., San Diego, CA “I was skeptical about a remote session, but the shift in my cat, Finnegan, was undeniable. Even though Susan was thousands of miles away, I watched Finnegan go from pacing the room to falling into a deep, peaceful sleep the moment the session began. Her insights into his joint pain were spot on.”
Michael B., Austin, TX “Susan conducted a distant Reiki session for my horse, Dakota, who was recovering from a leg injury. The reports she provided after each session were incredibly detailed and matched exactly what I was seeing in his physical recovery. It is amazing how the energy transcends physical space.”
Ellen S., Miami, FL “We used Susan’s remote communication services when we moved to a new city and our dog, Bella, stopped eating. Susan was able to connect with her from afar and explain Bella’s confusion about the new house. After the session, Bella finally settled in and her appetite returned immediately.”
David K., London, UK “Distance is no barrier for Susan’s gift. Our elderly Golden Retriever, Barnaby, was struggling with end-of-life comfort, and Susan’s remote Reiki sessions provided him with a level of serenity we didn’t think possible. It gave us such peace of mind during a difficult time.”
Behavior & Anxiety Support
Patricia R., Rockland County, NY “My dog Jasper absolutely loves his Reiki sessions with Susan. The energy calms his anxiety and puts him at ease.”
Vicki J., Pearl River, NY “I have to laugh at how excited Tonka gets when Susan arrives. He literally throws himself at her and lays on her lap, well half on her lap. It’s like he knows she is there to make him feel better. Tonka has had several sessions and I do see improvements with his behavior. I recommend Susan, she is a natural with animals.”
L.S., Orangeburg, NY “My dog Benjamin is not the kind of animal who warms up easily to strangers but, with Susan he purrs like a kitten in her hands. I contacted Susan because Benny was having separation anxiety. After a series of Animal Communication and Reiki sessions we were able to resolve his issues so that he is much more content in my absence. I’m so grateful for using Susan’s gifts and following her guidance. It took time and was worth it! If I did not call her, I would have had to put him on anti-anxiety medication. Thank you, we are both much happier : )”
Brenda S., Mahwah, NJ “I reached out to Susan because my two cats were no longer getting along. Through her communication work, she helped me understand the territory issues from the perspective of Milo and Otis. With her Reiki and some simple environmental changes she suggested, our home is finally peaceful again.”
Deep Connection & Communication
Judith L. & Bob C., Teaneck, NJ “We came upon some literature on Susan and Two Bear Herbs. We had Susan see one of our beautiful cats when he became terminally ill. We did so figuring what could we lose. However, what we gained was both very helpful and comforting to us. We have always been open minded but never anticipated that through the use of her gift of Animal Communication we have added a new dimension of our understanding of reality. We were amazed at the things Susan communicated to us through our baby. She relayed so much that there was absolutely no way she could have known and has helped us through the grieving process of having now lost him. Reiki is a wonderful energy healing practice and her gift of being so in tune with it is a blessing that we are so happy to have had and will continue to have her be a part of our lives with our beloved animals. Thank you so much again Susan and we really do look forward to our future experiences with you. Bob went on about his wonderful conversation with you. You really are so centered and a genuine soul that is to help people like us and our most precious treasured animals. Always our best.”
Mary M., Rockland County, NY “Susan’s intuitive understanding of energy and her ability to connect with animals is quite remarkable. I would recommend her to those individuals who are interested in getting to know their animals on a deeper level.”
Catherine D., Boston, MA “Even through a distant session, Susan picked up on a specific nickname I have for my dog, Wrigley, that I had never told anyone. Her gift is real, and her Reiki energy is profound. She has helped our entire family understand our pet’s needs on a whole new level.”
Health, Senior Care & End-of-Life
Liana M. & Tyra Barks., Northern New Jersey “Susan is a very powerful Reiki healer as well as a talented animal communicator. I can always feel the Reiki energy very strongly as soon as Susan starts the session. Both of my dogs and myself go to Susan for Reiki and my dogs have communicated with Susan as well. My dogs look forward to sessions with Susan and back into her hands for the Reiki energy. One session my dog Tyra had her session before mine and decided that she enjoyed the Reiki energy so much she wanted to be a part of MY session too! She tried to jump up on the Reiki table until Susan helped her up. Then she just laid on top of me and soaked up all the beautiful Reiki energy! We both thank you Susan!”
Megan L., Phoenix, AZ “Susan provided a remote session for my parrot, Sky, during his final days. The communication she shared brought me to tears because it was so clearly ‘him.’ It turned a heartbreaking time into a beautiful experience of closure and love.”
Linda V., Bergen County, NJ “Susan is more than just a communicator; she is a bridge between us and our pets. Her Reiki sessions have helped my senior dog, Gus, manage his arthritis naturally, and the communication has deepened our bond more than I ever thought possible.”

It was an intimate class which made for a comfortable learning environment.

I can’t wait for Reiki 2 + Animal Reiki Training.”

Success Stories & Results
Susan R. “I have attended three of Susan’s classes – Animal Reik 1, Animal Reiki 2, and Beginning Animal Communication. I volunteer at Horse Rescue farms as well as giving Reiki to my three dogs and our horse. They respond instantly! I attend Susan’s Animal Communication class two years ago. I learned so much. Since the class, I have been practicing the skills I learned with my friends’ pet companions and have been very successful with the communication sessions. Just tonight I heard back from a friend that lost her cat 20 months ago. I’ve done two sessions for her since he ran away and was able to determine the cat was well and an approximate location on where the cat was living. She found her cat today!!!”
Janine G. “I took a class in Animal Reiki. The class was professional, well organized and all material was put into a book to keep, it was used in class and has been a good reference source. Susan is a good teacher and I have had good results, particularly on a neighbors 16-year-old cat. Blessings”
Anonymous Student “I was drawn to Two Bear Healing Arts because it was one of the few websites specifically offering animal reiki. I was so pleased with Susan’s teachings that I went back after my Animal Reiki I and received my Animal Reiki II, III and also took Susan’s Beginning Animal Communication class. The results are astounding and have been life changing, I owe it all to Susan’s thorough criteria. If I ever have a question she is always available to answer and help. I am grateful and so thankful for Susan and Two Bear Healing Arts!”
Teaching Style & Professionalism
Sarah F., Glen Rock, NJ “Reiki 1 + Animal Reiki Training with Susan was an absolutely amazing experience from start to finish! Susan is an incredible teacher who creates a warm, welcoming, and deeply supportive environment for learning. The class was the perfect balance of theory and hands-on practice. I left the training feeling completely confident in my ability to channel Reiki energy, not just for humans, but specifically for animals. Susan’s profound connection to the animal kingdom is inspiring, and she teaches you how to approach animals with the utmost respect and energetic awareness. If you are looking to start your Reiki journey or want to deepen your bond with animals through healing energy, I cannot recommend Susan’s workshops enough. It was truly life-changing! I look forward to continuing on to Reiki 2 + Animal Reiki Training this fall.”
Susan M. “Susan is a thorough teacher, her course material is easy to understand, and we went over every detail, I didn’t have any questions left after class. I highly recommend Susan.

Julie M. “I took the Reiki 1 with animal reiki class. Susan is a wonderful teacher. She presents all information clearly and makes it easy to understand and supplies a wonderful handbook.

Her passion for what she does really shows in her teaching. I look forward to taking my next class with her!”
Alexis C. “I loved the intimacy of the class, had I not had any of that I would most likely have been very lost. You are a great teacher who is very confident in the information that you are teaching and I think that was what I needed to see from a strong female presence! thank you for teaching me! Warm regards.”
Eileen D., White Plains, NY “Susan is an effective, charismatic, dynamic teacher who can make Animal Reiki easy to understand! Her humor and good nature are contagious and make her classes fun. She is able to create a nurturing, energized environment which aids each student in connecting with each other. I highly recommend her classes!”
Cathy H., New York State “I recently participated in Susan’s “Animal Reiki For Reiki Practitioners” class. The material was comprehensive and well researched. Not only is Susan a delight to spend time with, but she is a professional committed to giving her students a quality program. I came away feeling I was more than prepared to step out in the world of Animal Reiki. This class exceeded my expectations and I feel safe in saying any one of her classes will meet the same excellent standard.”
Karin F., Manhattan, NY “Thank you so much for being my guide in Animal Reiki. I do not think I know a person who on the one hand is so knowledgeable about what she is doing and on the other hand makes the material so accessible. I just find you a very amazing human being. Warmly,”
Continuing Education & Mentorship
Tanya R., Fair Lawn, NJ “I have used Two Bear Healing Arts for Reiki Level 1 with people and animals and most recently intro to animal communication. I love the way Susan teaches.

Definitely recommend her to everyone I know that is interested in these types of classes or just getting this type of healing done.”
Jenny S., Brooklyn, NY “I took Reiki I, II and III with Animal Reiki Training from Susan.

She truly is amazing.”
Patti K., New York State “Hi Susan, I wanted you to know how much I enjoyed Saturday’s Animal Reiki class. It was one of the best and most informative Reiki classes I’ve ever taken.

Jo Anne L., Manhattan, NY “I was Susan’s student for her Animal Reiki for Reiki Practitioners and Master Certification courses with an emphasis in Animal Reiki training. Susan is a very thorough teacher who is very knowledgeable and experienced in her subject matter. She brought much compassion and caring to each student as she made sure that each of us learned each aspect of her curriculum before moving on to the next one.”
Susan P., Mahwah, NJ “I have taken two classes with Susan: Animal Reiki Level 1 and Level 2. The classes are small, so you get all the attention you need. They are held in Susan’s home, so the atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. I received a manual which we went over in class page by page, any questions we had were answered, and we practiced giving Reiki. My dog was invited to class also! Susan has an energetic personality, a good sense of humor and is passionate about the subjects she teaches. This makes learning enjoyable. Susan also remains your teacher after the class is over. Anytime you have a question or need feedback, you can contact her. Thanks to Susan, Reiki is a part of my everyday life. She is a wonderful teacher.”
Allison Solimine, Wayne, NJ “Susan is a fabulous teacher who is patient and thorough. She shares her own experiences which help bring clarity to the material she is presenting. You can tell that this is her passion as her enthusiasm shines through. Probably the best thing about having Susan for a teacher is that she continues to be available afterward when questions come up and situations arise that that you couldn’t have thought of in the “what if” sense. Susan wants her students to succeed and goes out of her way to help them to do so…”
Gary B., Fairlawn, NJ “I had been looking locally for a Reiki Master to help me develop my Reiki, and saw Susan’s website. Susan is methodical and thorough in her presentation.

Christa M., Texas, USA “I talked to Susan many times – 1st when my beautiful cat Hallie disappeared. She told me exactly where she was… I have also had intuitive counseling for me with her a couple of times, and she is always straight forward and pretty much spot on. I would highly recommend her for either one. I have never met her, only talked to her on the phone, but, in my mind, she is a beautiful person.”
Regina F., Valley Cottage, NY “I have had 2 intuitive readings with Susan. One was for my precious cat Pharaoh, which brought us closer, and helped me to understand him better. The other was for me.

Not only is Susan the most amazing Reiki practitioner and teacher, she is also a gifted Herbalist. She put me on a daily program to help me with iron deficiency and hormonal imbalance. I was literally one day away from receiving iron infusions until I started following her program. Today, with the help of Reiki and herbs I am no longer sick, fatigued, or full of stress and anxiety. Meeting Susan truly saved and changed my life! She is a Godsend! She is a true healer, gifted, compassionate and kind. I feel so blessed to call her my mentor, teacher and friend! I would recommend Susan’s professional services time and time again.”
Mary H. (Tarrytown, NY): “Susan is a skilled Reiki practitioner as well as a knowledgeable herbalist. I had received Reiki with her several times and it worked well and I got excellent results. Her herbal counseling intake was very detail-oriented and I felt her enthusiasm for helping people. I strongly recommend her if you are looking for an herbalist with a special touch.”
General Healing & Environment
J.P. (Nyack, NY): “Susan creates such a comfortable environment you can’t help but feel safe and deeply relaxed. She brings incredible focus and passion to her sessions. I found that the healing process she initiated in me alleviated physical pain and released blocked emotions.”

Definitely recommend it to anyone serious about learning the art of healing!
Angela S. (New City, NY): Susan is an excellent teacher. I didn’t know what to expect going into the course, but as I walked in I felt comfort and belonging. Her teaching methods kept me engaged which helped me learn effectively. She’s a wonderful, kind person and am looking forward to continuing with her.
Carol T. (Queens, NY): Susan, sitting in class with you was an unbelievable experience! You truly come from your heart and as you said, this is your soul’s purpose. It shows in your gentle kind nature. You are a lightworker in the truest sense! I learned so much in Reiki I and can’t wait to take Reiki II with you. Thank you for being you!
Crystal C.: I had a beautiful experience receiving my Reiki 1 certification at Two Bear Healing Arts. It was an intimate class which made for a comfortable learning environment. It was a beautiful day and I truly feel like I opened myself up to a part of myself that has been waiting for so long to help others in their healing. It felt like coming home. I can’t wait for Reiki 2.
Janice C.: The class was very informative and a good entry into Reiki. The content was easy to follow and provided me with a great overview of the discipline and all the necessary tools to practice what I learned.
Monika R. (Nanuet, NY): I met with Susan when I wanted to become certified in Level 1 Reiki. She was so warm and welcoming, I instantly felt comfortable. She is not only a great teacher, but also made herself so accessible for any questions and concerns I had after my attunement. I am so pleased to have shared this experience with her.
Rebecca: Susan is a wonderful Reiki Master with many years of experience and in-depth knowledge of Reiki. I took the level 1 class (non-animal) and thoroughly enjoyed it. I learned a lot about the history of Reiki and the techniques used to not only heal others but also heal myself. I look forward to taking the level 2 class with Susan in the near future so I can continue to expand my understanding of this incredibly gentle but powerful energy healing technique.

Very much looking forward to Reiki II with her as my teacher.

Reiki Level 3 & Master Level Training
Darren M. (NY, NY): I did my reiki level 3 training with Susan and really enjoyed it. She is a great reiki teacher. I enjoyed the very relaxed atmosphere and personalized attention. She has made herself available to ask any follow up questions I’ve had over the course of the last several months which I really appreciate. Be it for reiki training or for a reiki session, I highly recommend her!
Lauren P. (Mahwah, NJ): Hi, I hope you are doing well. I still have your plants – thank you! Reiki 3 was a great experience! The class was very informative. I liked how there was a review along with new material. All of my questions were answered and I felt you really knew the topic well. My favorite part was trying out the master symbol. It was amazing how much energy I could feel coming from my hands! Overall, it was a great class and I am glad I went.
Michelle W.: My one-on-one private Reiki Master level class and attunement with Susan was an experience I will never forget. I was nervous prior to going, but she made every step of the day enjoyable and feel effortless. I felt empowered once I left and ready to continue on my Reiki journey. I highly recommend Susan!
Nicolás E. (Bronx, NY): I found Susan while searching online about animal communication. I signed up for her newsletter and received information about her Reiki classes. Prior to enrolling as a student for Reiki level three with Susan, I asked about the format for the class, the materials that she was going to cover, and the training in general. Susan answered all of my questions about the process very clearly. On the day of the class, I traveled from New York City to her place upstate. I arrived with the intention of learning, yet with no expectations about how things would proceed. Susan proved to be a caring teacher and her class was a thorough platform for learning new skills. I came away from the class feeling very good about the experience as a whole and I gained important information about energy healing. I highly recommend Susan’s Reiki workshops.
Specialized Classes & Unique Journeys
Michelle M. (Nanuet, NY): While on vacation the hotel I was staying at offered Reiki services, after the initial session I felt that there was something to this energy balancing practice. The intrigue was there to find out more and my journey led to Susan. Susan gave the class background on how Reiki came into being as well as how to handle it in practice. I can honestly say that I connected that day at a level I never expected. Susan sensed it as well. What makes classes with Susan different, is that she works with you and your higher spirit to achieve the very best in class as well as offers follow-up guidance when needed.
Rich T. (Lynhurst, NJ): I recently took Susan’s class for Reiki and Animal Communications. The class was wonderful and Susan was a knowledgeable instructor. Her ease with the material at hand made it very simple for me to understand. I was able to put this knowledge into practice quite effectively. Susan was very friendly and the environment was comfortable. I would recommend Susan to anyone who would like to learn about Reiki and animal communications.
