At one time, a commercial pop artist, jazz-blues improvisationist, award-winning classical pianist and soundtrack composer, music producer and session musician, Suzanne Grosvenor awoke to the power of Sound and Vibration for Healing and Personal Growth in the early 1980s when she began hearing music in association with people and life situations.
Since that time she has facilitated personal, custom music sessions that are valued as an effective therapeutic, healing modality for emotional, mental and physical support. Suzanne's 'Sound Portrait' Improvisations are considered a dynamic tool for stimulating insight, personal awareness, and personal growth, in these private sessions, as well as group gatherings and her concert performances.
An avid music teacher since the 1960s, Suzanne has taught Music for Self Development techniques to musicians since 1986. Music is a language for self expression and tool for self-knowing for those who are drawn to music. A teacher may foster musical facility in students; experientially, creating space for the student to express musical feelings and creativity early on, with emphasis on hearing, feeling and self expression in much the way that language is learned in early life.

SOUND PORTRAIT TESTIMONIES
In private sessions, Suzanne interprets the music she hears for people.
TRAUMA: "I suffered a trauma years ago and felt a deep physical imbalance in my body ever since. I tried conventional medicine and alternative therapies but no doctor could help me. As soon as I received my music from Suzanne, my whole body came into alignment and I felt strong. My outlook completely changed. I now have a balance I haven't had in years."
BACK INJURY: "My 12-year injury healed spontaneously during the music with Suzanne. It is my first awareness of a spontaneous healing."
"MY CHRONIC EAR INFECTION cleared up completely as Suzanne played for the group. I was able to cancel my doctor appointment. There was no more pain. The infection did not return."
TRAUMA: "We spent two hours in this transformational process which mysteriously healed trauma and provided me with greater strength, confidence and spiritual connection.The music provided a healing, positive presence in which I gained insights into being my best self."
Bobbe, Ma, HHC, BHT, ITE, Recovery Educator
QUANTUM-LEAP: "Suzanne's work with music has quantum-leaped my life. I've never felt anything this powerful before."
DEEP FEARS: "My inner strength skyrocketed, surges of what I think was adrenaline caused an intense tingling sensation throughout my body. I got in touch with a deep fear that had been controlling my life. I became at peace with myself. I have a new outlook on life....Everyone should get to experience this. It is incredibly exhilarating."
DEPRESSION and ANGER: "I experienced six months worth of therapy in one session. A miracle!”
GRIEF: "I listened to the music Suzanne made for me 7 nights in a row. What happened to my body was amazing...”

Music reaches such deep, archetypal
material. It should be an essential part
of every analysis.
