• About: Over the past 24 years I’ve enjoyed sharing knowledge, training groups, and creating project with the intention that people live extraordinary, authentic and joyful lives. Since discovering the Sedona Method I realized that releasing suffering, desiring, and the sense of a personal I are, by far, the easiest way to become, get and enjoy whatever is for the Highest and Best. I believe the Sedona Method is the greatest gift to humankind as tool to Self realization, happiness and freedom, and I feel blessed to be able to share it with you.

Katja Törmänen

• About: The Sedona Method arrived into my life in 2013, and right from the beginning I was impressed how simple, yet effective it is. Since then, the method has just kept on giving, and one of my favorite things in life is guiding and showing people how to learn and use this magnificent method. I love to help people to let go – whether it's about dwelling on the past, worrying about the future, or believing in limiting thoughts. After releasing, it's easy to notice and experience courage, confidence and joy again. Happiness and peace of mind are often just one release away - without the need to change anything external first. I've written a book about the Sedona Method (in Finnish, published 2023), and I'm now sharing the method via courses and other training (online and in person), and via online one-on-one coaching - both in English and in Finnish.

Susanne Kappes

• About: For over 27 years, I’ve been devoted to one mission: supporting people in living extraordinary, authentic, and joyful lives. Whether in one-on-one sessions, groups, workshops, or global support calls, I’ve guided thousands of individuals to uncover the limitless peace, love, and joy that already reside within them. Since discovering the Sedona Method in 2005, I’ve experienced firsthand that letting go—of suffering, striving, and the illusion of separation—is the most natural path to freedom. This method, simple yet profoundly effective, has been the greatest gift I’ve encountered, both personally and professionally. I am passionate about supporting others in seeing how even life’s deepest challenges can become gateways to transformation. It is a great joy for me to witness someone realize they are not broken, they are not lacking—they are whole, and free, right here, right now. Whether you’re navigating grief, anxiety, or uncertainty—or seeking greater fulfillment in your relationships, career, or inner life—I create a safe, grounded space to release what no longer serves and reconnect with your natural clarity, creativity, and joy. My approach is rooted in compassion, presence, and deep listening. I meet you where you are and support you in discovering that what you’ve been looking for is already here. If you're ready to let go of the stories holding you back and live from your natural peace and pow- er, I would be honored to walk with you. Freedom is not somewhere far away—it's here, now, waiting for your gentle welcome.

Wai Hin Chan

• About: The Sedona Method (TSM) found me in 2004 when I was experiencing a health crisis with my pregnancy and TSM became the one steady and reliable tool that has helped me stay afloat in the often tumultuous ocean of life. I retired from an esteemed and progressive career in healthcare that spanned 3 decades (as a physiotherapist, a servant leader, and wholistic administrator) and set up my coaching/consulting practice in 2019. I am now fully immersed in holding space for my fellow human beings as we walk each other home, in the form of 1:1 coaching and group learning. I have a wholistic approach and focus on integrating body and mind while also welcoming the spirit and soul to inform and move each of us towards our birthright of Freedom and Love. We all hold limiting beliefs that get in the way of our dream jobs, optimal health, loving relationships, etc, and it is so much fun (at times, it is also super hard) to support each other to transcend these limitations and find our Ultimate Joy.

Yvonne Spence

• About: I have been using the Sedona Method since 2008. Early on, I knew I wanted to support others with this powerful tool. I particularly found its welcoming process to be effedctive when dealing with difficult situations. It also proved effective for letting go of self-criticism and as a support to grow in self-compassion. When coaching, I love to support people to release self-judgments, find self-compassion and kindness and to recognise the love that we all already are. As well as coaching one-to-one, I run support calls, workshops and other events.
