CLIENT REVIEWS
Dr. Lissa Rankin - Internal Family Systems & Memoir Writing Retreat. November, 2024. Malta.
This retreat far far far exceeded my hopes & expectations for Memoir Writing. We were together with magical souls on a special journey together.
Susan McConnell - SIFS. Retreat. October, 2024. USA.
Embodied self-energy is my biggest take-away from the retreat; I have such a different sense now of what self-leadership feels like. -
A. B, USA
I found Susan to be warm, inviting and nurturing as she used experiential exercises to connect her IFS approach to body, mind and spirit. I was deeply and profoundly moved and gained a greater understanding of myself through this retreat experience. -

Pamela Krause - Self Energy and Self-Like Parts Retreat. October 2024. Ireland.
An incredible, heartwarming and growth experience. Pam's warmth and generous sharing of wisdom was a thrill to experience. Ciara and Souliology are fantastic and professional. I cannot fault this retreat. I have many wonderful memories to take home and knowledge/insight to integrate my work and personal IFS therapy. Very grateful. Well worth the expense and distance travelled.
Daniel Foor - Ancestral Lineage Healing Retreat. October, 2024. Northern Ireland.
Having just completed this 5-day retreat with Dr Daniel Foor, I feel more resourced, confident and at ease with my linages and my origins. We were taught a series of steps of being, to explore our connection with those who have went before us and the patterns in our lives that play out as a result. Deeply healing and well held event. Thanks Paul, Ciara and Daniel. Come back soon.
"The ancestral healing retreat was a powerful dive into liberating access to a part of me that I didn't even know was repressed, explicitly access to my ancestral heritage and lineage. Daniel is a skilled facilitator with great gifts and clear mastery in the craft of healing ancestral lineage. If you have an interest in connecting with your heritage, I highly recommend studying with Daniel. "
Stuart Motola, U.S.
Once again, I had a profoundly transformative experience while participating in your retreat. I sincerely appreciate the consideration invested in every aspect of the event.
Kara. USA.
The ALH Retreat revealed how much Dr Foor's teachings are desperately needed across the globe to help understand the benefits of healing our Ancestor lineages to help guide future generations towards a more moral and ethical way of being on our dear Mother
Earth. Teresa, Ireland
The ancestor healing retreat was brilliant, deep and powerful. I had never done anything quite like this retreat and I found it fascinating and helpful. Daniel's teachings are unique and make shifts on different levels. He has great knowledge, and does important work so respectful of the land and culture. I loved it and hope he comes back to Belfast next year.
Souliology hosts are very kind, helpful and organised. They went out of their way to deliver a wonderful retreat experience in Belfast -- I highly recommend their offerings and would definitely attend more of their future offerings.
I learned so much at this retreat that I have already put into practice. Patriarchal, hierarchal religions are so dominant- at least in American culture - it's life-changing to be introduced to spiritual and ritual practices that remind us we can all access at least some of the wisdom and blessings of our ancestors by simply remembering how to ask and how to listen.
Cece Sykes - Heart Lessons of the Journey Retreat. October, 2024. Ireland.
Both Cece Sykes and Souliology make life better. Highly recommended!
Griet, Belgium
The retreat was held in a heartfelt way, warm and supportive, well organised. Much appreciation 💛
Marie le Mahieu, Netherlands
What an extraordinary week of such riches, travelling with like-hearted people… learning, sharing, healing. This is a retreat for every therapist. Such a treat for ourselves. Cece is a wonderful teacher and role model for Self energy holding the space with care, authenticity, humility and humour. What a pleasure and privilege to have had this experience with her and Joan! And Ciara made sure that every need of us all was met. Beautiful people, beautiful country and wonderful week… thank you…
Lisa M, UK
Beautifully held and supported nourishing retreat - good for the soul.
AA England
Ciara, Joan and CeCe were all warm, engaging and present. Their warm, hospitable and open energy allowed for great connection to oneself and to others creating a really healing space throughout the retreat. I would highly recommend this.

This was my first time in Ireland, while my ancestry is Irish. It was lovely to be looked after so well and feel the warm heartedness of the Irish people I met. I was surprised at the international nature of the workshop participants, many from North America, and also The Netherlands. It was lovely getting to know many of the participants, both in and outside of the formal retreat . There was a good mix of activities provided to help the socialising .

Chris Burris - IFS Experiential Intensive Workshop, June, 2024. Ireland.
This workshop was a true gift for my heart, mind and soul. Incredible teacher, wonderful group, heartwarming surroundings. A big thank you.
Griet Op de Beeck, Belgium
Ciara is one of the kindest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. She was lovely from the beginning, so helpful, and genuine. Chris was exceptional - I left this workshop feeling so fulfilled, I’m so glad I made this trip to continue my IFS journey.
Just attended the Souliology IFS Experiential Intensive Worskshop with Chris Burris. Chris is an excellent trainer and modelled new depths of understanding. He showed us how to hold space with compassion and expertise. I will take a lot from this course. Thanks.
Ciara was an excellent host. I received such a warm welcome. She asked every day how I was doing and was very quick to take the necessary action to get my needs met. I will definitely be back.
Susan McConnell - SIFS Retreat, April, 2024. Malta.
Ciara's attention to detail and level of care towards the experience of participants can seen in every part of the retreat process. I highly recommend Souliology as a safe place to land in your travels for training.
The Souliology team is a top notch professional in organising this kind of events. Ciara made the event feel special and I felt taken care of at the highest level.
Souliology offers a one of a kind experience for healers in this world. Thank you for taking such great care of those of us who attended, as well as offering a variety of experiences to deepen our learning of how to heal and to be healed ourselves. I will absolutely be attending another training with you.
I feel like I just spent a week marinating in self-energy and my heart feels so open. I feel refreshed and deeply seen and witnessed.
Slowing down and opening up! My body is still connecting into the deep healing from the SIFS Retreat and my system feels very calm. Ciara, you were a fabulous host, and thank you to Susan and the team for the wonderful SIFS experience, thank you, thank you, thank you. I appreciate the new Somatic IFS connections made and I look forward to more somatic training in future!
Steph, London
You are the best. Thank you.
A few more comments: I'd love to do another retreat since it was an incredible experience, but as an under-resourced person, I can't foresee a time when I could justify the expense for myself. I did this because I am very interested in SIFS and taking Step 2 as soon as possible. I need to save my funds for things that will help me in my career, even though this was SO important for me as a person and for my own health. Testimonial: Susan and staff created and held a space that allowed me to move through my own protective layers and deeply connect with my body in ways that had been unavailable for so many years. It was a profound experience and I learned so much about myself and about how I might share this work with others.
Toni Herbine-Blank - Getting to the Heart of the Matter - A Couples Retreat. April, 2024. Ireland.
Our retreat experience was outstanding! Ciara was masterful at taking care of the details so that the group could be fully present with the content. Toni, the retreat leader, was so excellent, I really don't have good enough words to describe. Far above and beyond our expectations, and we came away deeply nourished and enriched. Simply wonderful! -
Eleanor, Seattle, WA, USA
I gave a "3" for likelihood to attend another simply because it's quite expensive to make it all the way to Ireland and I'm not sure we could do that again some time soon. However, it was a wonderful experience.
Ciara - You did a great job putting together this retreat and then taking such good care of all of us. You made me in particularly feel very comfortable and glad to be part of this experience. A heartfelt thank you!
What a wonderful experience for my spouse and I to be in retreat with Souliology. The space created was lovely and the healing between us was tender, authentic and deeply meaningful. Thank you Toni for offering us your IFIO teachings that supported our journey along the way. This was a wonderful way to bring my spouse into the IFS community :-)
LaDonna S. California, US
We greatly appreciated all the time, attention and care Ciara put into the retreat and helping us get a taste of Ireland. And the workshop with Toni Herbine-Blank was incredibly rich and moving - we thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
This was a wonderful, deepening experience and it helped us tune in to each other and listen in a different way. Slowing down, getting away and investing this time in each other is priceless!!! Highly recommend!
Faye & Nate ~ Hawaii, USA
Kay Gardner - A Legacy Burden Retreat, February, 2024. Ireland.
The retreat was well organized from all aspects. I felt very cared for and safe! The Legacy Burden with Kay was so powerful and deep. Thank you so much Ciara and your team for all that you do!
Tamar Berry California US.
The retreat with Kay in Killarney was truly a gift. Kay and Souliology created such a beautiful space to explore, create, gain clarity, and be in community while honoring our selves, our ancestors, and the full depth of our emotions. I met such lovely people, who I am sure I'll continue to be in touch with. Thank you! -
Laura D
I miss everyone involved already. Thank you so much for such a special experience! -
My time at this retreat was one of the best weeks of my life. It was the perfect combination of travel, relaxation, learning, and healing. You can tell when an organization is run straight from the heart and Souliology is from the heart, and for the soul.
Donia from Denver.
Laughter, grief, curiosity, magic, exploration, divine witnessing, ancestral communion, new learning, healing, surprise, connection, and delicious food. This retreat exceeded my expectations, my only complaint is we couldn't stay together longer.
Jordan, USA.
Ann Sinko - The Grief retreat, November, 2023. Ireland.
This is the best IFS training I have ever been on. I've met some fabulous people who will be in my life forever. Thank you :)
A lovely time. My only criticism is the hotel in the city. A country location would have supported the grief work better.
Thank you for all you do!
Thanks so much!!
