Go Beyond Symptoms: End the Overwhelm in Your Animal’s Healthcare.
Experience personalised support and practical tools to weave together your animal’s health in The Liminal Keys™ Wayfinding Wellness Program and transform how you manage your animal’s health.
Welcome to Willow Wise Therapies
The internet whispers a thousand conflicting remedies. The market is flooded with products that make grand promises. It’s easy to feel lost, questioning your own intuition in the noise.
Between what the experts say and what your heart knows, there exists a liminal space.
This is where true health unfolds — your deep bond with your animal is the source of profound knowledge. Yet in a world of overwhelming information, finding your way into this sacred space can feel impossible.
Are you ready to trade the endless search for answers for the quiet confidence of knowing the way?
We don’t offer another quick fix.
We are here to help you translate your profound connection with your animal into confident stewardship.
We help animal companions live happily with their animal by confidently making smart, healthy choices centred on the preferences & needs of their animal.
Because, true health is not found by reducing health to a single shortfall to be corrected. It’s so much more than that.
Who we help
This work is for horses, dogs and cats
— and for the human companion who knows them best.
Often the animal is doing something demanding. An assistance dog holding public access. A horse who competes, travels, or has been asked to change jobs. A working dog whose day is long. Sometimes the animal is ageing, chronically unwell, or moving through a passage — a retirement, a diagnosis, a loss in the household.
And you're the one holding their story: the repeated observations, the preferences that never show up in a clinic room and the knowledge what has already been tried, received, resisted or endured.
Meet the Veterinary Herbalist
Hullo, I'm Susan Johnson
You feel it. The chaotic scramble of coordinating your animal’s healthcare.
You are the one who listens to the quiet language of your animal. You feel their joy their discomfort and their deep and unspoken wisdom. You hold the profound, experiential knowledge of their world in your hands and you have a resolve to care for them in the best way that you can.
Yet you find yourself navigating a labyrinth.
The disconnected advice. The unanswered questions. The worry. It’s a journey that asks you to be more than just a loving companion. It requires you to be a strategic steward.
This is where my work began.
Willow Wise Therapies is built on a rare foundation, me.
I am forged by three decades of shaping complex systems. Seeing the entire maps of patterns and people. Transforming chaos into clear confident action.
I am also deeply rooted in the ancient wisdom of the earth. Fluent in the science of plants like Salix alba and Sambucus nigra and passionate about bringing the soul-stirring magic of wholistic healing to your animal companion.
In a time of fragmented care and conflicting advice where my own deep knowing felt lost in the noise. I needed a connection, a friend to help make sense of the chaos and a partnership that respected me for being me, but I didn’t know that I did. My animals, my mare Lakota and my assistance dog Isabella, were my guides back to myself.
Lakota grounded me in the strength and power of transformation.
Isabella mirrored my own nervous system, a constant, living reminder that true health resonates far beyond the physical.
They offered a knowing collaboration that allowed the merging of the two halves of my S-Elf.
They taught me the simple, profound truths at the heart of our shared lives:
♥ How to truly nourish and be nourished;
♥ How to lead and be led; and
♥ How to be understood and to understand.
This is the wisdom that sits at the heart of Willow Wise Therapies. It is the journey for profound and lasting transformation, this I learned from them.
A path that, I hope, we may walk together.
