Dr. Suzy Ross, a trusted therapist, professor, and transformation expert, offers a clear and research-based way forward through her Tool of Transformation. This 30-day program supports deep personal healing, growth, and a renewed sense of wholeness.

Who Is Dr. Suzy Ross?

Dr. Suzy Ross is an Associate Professor at San José State University and a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS). With over 20 years of experience, she has studied how people change after facing life’s hardest moments. Her work blends academic insight with heartfelt compassion, guiding individuals toward emotional, mental, and spiritual balance.

What Is the Tool of Transformation?

The Tool of Transformation is a step-by-step process based on 13 emotional and psychological phases people experience during personal growth. These phases offer a roadmap to understanding your journey, whether you're going through major change or simply seeking clarity. Some key phases include:

  • Seed – The beginning of something new

  • Disintegration – When old ways fall apart

  • Stillness – A pause for reflection

  • Spark – A return of hope and direction

  • Wholeness – A sense of being centered and complete

Each phase is designed to guide you with compassion, helping you move through life’s transitions with intention.

The Map to Wholeness: A Deeper Look at the Process

In her book The Map to Wholeness, Dr. Ross brings these phases to life through real stories and relatable examples. It’s a powerful resource for anyone seeking to understand where they are in their personal journey-and how to keep going.

Tools That Support Your Growth

To help make the journey smoother, Dr. Ross offers additional tools and resources:

  • A self-assessment quiz to identify your current phase

  • Short videos that explain each step of the process

  • Private coaching for personalized guidance

  • Community support spaces for shared experiences

These resources are built to meet you where you are-whether you’re new to personal growth or well along your path.
