“By using imagery, Jaqueline Sussman allows us to re-enter past experiences and understand unexamined emotions. She gives us a map for inner traveling"

-- Gloria Steinem

“Jaqueline Sussman is carrying on a quiet revolution on a small corner of learning. Mental images can be used to help identify blocks and inhibitions. They can be used to help connect a person to his or her main passion or drive, and to give them the energy or power to 'go for it'. Eidetic imagery can be a very effective tool in helping people resolve problems in the area of sex and relationships.”

-- Woman Magazine

“Women can also tap into hidden energy by following the imagery practices in Jaqueline Sussman's "Images of Desire" (Forge Books). The exercises aim to connect readers with their full sexual potential rather than media-generated
images of sexuality.”

--New Age Magazine

“Eidetic Imagery enabled me to pinpoint the sources of my character, its strengths and weaknesses, thereby helping me to understand how and why I have succeeded in business.

I believe eidetic imagery can be a useful tool for anyone in maximizing his or her business potential as well as personal development.”

--The Honorable William Simon
Former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury

“My experience with Jackie and her imagery has been in a group setting. She has worked with my team of designers within a traditional corporate environment. Through the use of eidetic images, the team was able to work through some destructive behavior that was based on their perception versus reality. The images revealed insights that words could not convey. The commonality of the message in the group images was shocking, yet each image was truly personal. In addition, the sharing of images created an exceptional group bond. The technique of eidetics along with Jackie's intuitive style of working was used not only for problem solving, but as a tool to bring forward my staff's individual and collective genius. I know of no other programs or techniques in my 20 years of corporate experience that has had such positive results as eidetics did with my staff.”

--Ivy Ross
President of Barbie, Division of Mattel Toys

“As a key commissioner, I have to deal with severe challenges as a lobbyist of my agency. I have to constantly deal with less enlightened legislators who have mind sets and attitudes that I must battle with regularly, since, these affect the lives of women and children in the state. Eidetic images have bolstered my self confidence, and made me feel invincible when I need it most.”

--Patricia Russo
Commissioner for the Permanent Commission

Some quotes on Eidetic Imagery and Akhter Ahsen, PH.D.

(Dr. Ahsen is the leading theoretician in the field of mental imagery and the developer of Eidetic Image Psychology. Jaqueline Lapa Sussman has collaborated with Dr. Ahsen for more than 25 years.)

“The value of Ahsen’s therapy is unquestionable... The use of ... imagery does cut through much of the verbiage with which we conceal ourselves from ourselves. There is an optimistic, hopeful and non elitist quality to Ahsen’s approach.”

--Journal of Personality Assessment

“Eidetic analysis is unique as a simultaneous blend of diagnosis and therapy...The possibilities for widespread self-directed lay therapy or personal growth are enormous.”

--Canadian Counselor

“Unmatched in the clinical literature... a methodological advance.”

--The American Journal of Psychiatry

“Eidetic Psychotherapy is a major innovation in the traditions of psychotherapy that is neurologically informed as it is humanistically and holistically conceived. Eidetics is emphatically not a new wrinkle in psychotherapy. It is, in fact, a new psychotherapy.”

--Somatics

“One of the most significant developments yet to emerge in psychotherapy since Freud’s psychoanalysis.”

--The Glasgow Journal of Psychology

“A unique and important contribution to the scientific study of healing with imagery.”

--New Age Magazine

“The principles of this approach rely on bright visual images and the feeling of reality they project inside the mind, so that inner and outer realities are bound together in the body of a single operation... (one becomes aware) of the fascination inherent in imagery, the tricks it can play with consciousness, and the benefits that may lie in its understanding and use.”

--Ernest R. Hilgard, Ph.D.

“Without a doubt, the method offers possibilities for rapid and deep investigative probe.”

--Swiss Archives of Neurology

“An exciting and ingenuous way of getting at conflict areas.”

--Contemporary Psychology
