About Dr. Suzanne Meunier

The Journey That Led Me Here

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience, but my path to Soul Bloom Coaching began with my own profound spiritual awakening and transformation. While I built my foundation in evidence-based psychology, I discovered that the most meaningful healing happens when we integrate both scientific understanding and ancient spiritual wisdom.

My journey has taken me from the prestigious anxiety treatment centers to the sacred ceremonies of modern shamanism—and ultimately to this beautiful intersection where psychology meets spirituality, where ego death becomes rebirth, and where our external world reveals itself as a mirror of our inner landscape.

Professional Foundation

I earned my Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the University of Arkansas and am licensed to practice independently with extensive training in cognitive-behavioral approaches. My clinical experience includes work at some of the most respected treatment centers in the country, including the Anxiety Disorders Center at the Institute of Living and the Center for OCD and Related Disorders at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School.

This foundation in evidence-based psychology provides me with a deep understanding of how transformation happens—the interplay between thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and beliefs that shape our experience. These insights now inform my coaching work, helping clients understand the psychological patterns underlying their spiritual growth and conscious evolution.

The Call to Deeper Work

While my clinical training provided me with powerful tools, I always felt called to understand the deeper dimensions of human healing and consciousness. This led me to pursue comprehensive training in psychedelic-assisted therapy through the Integrative Psychiatric Institute, where I discovered the profound healing that can happen when we create sacred containers for transformation.

I also studied modern shamanism and earned certification in shamanic coaching and energy medicine. This wasn't just professional development—it was a personal calling to understand how ancient wisdom traditions could enhance and deepen the healing work I was already doing.

Walking the Walk

I don't just teach these approaches—I live them. I have personally navigated my own ego death and rebirth processes, experienced the dissolution of old identities, and learned to hold my goals and expectations lightly while remaining fully engaged with life. I have worked with my own shadows, released attachments that no longer served me, and discovered what it means to see my external world as a reflection of my inner state.

This personal journey through transformation gives me authentic understanding of both the challenges and profound rewards of conscious spiritual growth. I know intimately what it feels like when the old self falls away and something new wants to emerge—and I understand how to navigate that sacred passage with grace and courage.

Why I Created Soul Bloom Coaching

Through my years of clinical practice, I witnessed how traditional approaches, while valuable, sometimes fell short of addressing the soul's deeper calling for meaning, purpose, and spiritual connection. I saw clients who had overcome their symptoms but still felt something was missing—a deeper sense of authenticity, purpose, and connection to something greater than themselves.

Soul Bloom Coaching emerged from my recognition that many people are experiencing what I call "spiritual growing pains"—the ego death and rebirth that naturally occurs when we outgrow our old ways of being. These aren't pathologies to be treated, but sacred passages to be honored and supported.

I realized I could serve as an "ego death doula"—someone who guides souls through the profound process of releasing who they were to become who they're truly meant to be. This work combines the practical skills I've mastered through decades of psychology practice with the spiritual wisdom I've gained through my own journey of awakening.

My Approach to Sacred Relationships

Having experienced my own relationship challenges and breakthroughs, I understand deeply how intimate partnerships can serve as our most powerful mirrors for growth. I've learned firsthand how to transform triggers into opportunities, how to see projections as invitations for self-examination, and how couples can create sacred containers for mutual evolution.

This personal experience, combined with my professional training, allows me to guide couples who choose to explore growth together with both expertise and authentic understanding.

What Drives My Work

I am passionate about helping people remember their power as conscious creators of their experience. I believe that when we understand how our external world reflects our internal state, we step out of victim consciousness and into empowerment. When we learn to hold our attachments lightly, we discover a freedom that doesn't depend on circumstances aligning perfectly.

Most importantly, I've witnessed the profound transformation that happens when someone learns to trust their own inner wisdom while having practical, spiritually-grounded tools to navigate life's challenges.

My Commitment to You

When you work with me, you receive support from someone who has not only mastered evidence-based approaches to transformation but has also walked the path of spiritual awakening personally. I bring both professional expertise and authentic lived experience to our work together.

I believe that everyone has the capacity for profound transformation and that your external circumstances, no matter how challenging, are perfectly designed to support your soul's growth. I am deeply honored to serve as a guide and companion on your journey toward greater authenticity, inner freedom, and conscious living.

Beyond the Practice

In my personal life, I continue to explore what it means to live with non-attachment while remaining fully engaged. I practice the principles I teach—seeing my own challenges as opportunities for growth, holding my goals lightly, and trusting that everything in my life is serving my evolution in some way.

This ongoing personal practice keeps me grounded in the reality of what I'm asking of my clients and ensures that the guidance I offer comes from a place of authentic understanding rather than theoretical knowledge alone.
