What is The Self-Reclamation Project?
The Self-Reclamation Project (SRP) is a guided path to personal development, designed to help you reconnect with yourself — your values, your boundaries, and your emotional needs — in a steady, compassionate way.
This isn’t about fixing yourself or becoming a “better” version of who you are. It’s about learning how to listen inwardly, notice patterns with curiosity, and make choices that feel more aligned with what actually matters to you.
The SRP offers structure without pressure, support without judgment, room to grow, and space to slow down in a world that rarely invites you to do so.
The Self-Reclamation Project might be for you if...Â
- You’re doing the “right” things, but still feel disconnected or unfulfilled
- You’re craving more intention and meaning in your daily life
- You want to learn to accept yourself without judgment
- You value reflection, curiosity, and self-compassion
- You’re tired of feeling like you need to push, fix, or perform in order to grow
This SRP is a helpful, supportive place for folks who want to deepen their relationship with themselves.
What can you expect from The SRP?
The Self-Reclamation Project is designed to meet you where you are.
As a member, you can expect:
- Monthly guided reflections and writing prompts that support self-connection and self-alignment
- Thoughtfully designed tools and practices you can return to again and again that will truly change your life
- An inclusive community space (without pressure to overshare)
- Invitations to intentionally slow down, check in, and realign with your values
- A pace that respects your nervous system and your real life
There are no deadlines to keep up with and no expectation to engage in a particular way. You choose what feels supportive for you.
How The SRP works
The Self-Reclamation Project offers a thoughtfully curated library of content along with a supportive community space, allowing you to engage with the work in a way that feels steady, flexible, and aligned with your needs.
The SRP Member Library serves as the central space for the experience. Each month, new content is added to guide you through developing insights and intentional living, including:
- a monthly newsletter
- guided journal prompts
- meditations
- reflective exercises
If you join at the beginning of a month, you may see only the newsletter at first. Additional content is added gradually as the month unfolds, keeping the experience spacious rather than overwhelming.
You’ll also have access to the SRP Community, where you’re welcome to connect with other members, share reflections if you choose, or participate in the optional monthly challenge. Participation is always optional; you decide how visible or private your experience is.
There’s no required pace and no expectation to keep up. The Self-Reclamation Project is designed to be a steady place you can return to, month after month, in a way that fits your life.
I'm here to help you heal and take up your space.
The Self-Reclamation Project is guided by me, Suzanne Manser, PhD. I’m a licensed clinical psychologist based in Portland, OR. I created this online space for people who want an effective, intentional path to reconnect with themselves — without pressure, judgment, or the expectation to “fix” who they are.
I've been guiding patients along this path for 30 years. All of my work is grounded in helping people develop a more compassionate, acceptance-based relationship with themselves and learn how to take up their space in the world in ways that feel fulfilling and authentic.
The Self-Reclamation Project is rooted in my years of experience with my patients, as well as my own healing journey. While this is not therapy, the work is informed by my clinical background and my commitment to creating spaces that feel emotionally safe, ethical, and deeply respectful of your lived experience.

The Self-Reclamation Project is not therapy and is not a replacement for psychotherapy, mental health treatment, or crisis care. Participation in this project does not establish a therapist–client relationship with me.
While my clinical training and experience inform the work, The SRP is designed as a reflective, educational, and supportive experience. If you are experiencing acute distress or are in need of therapeutic care, I encourage you to seek support from a licensed mental health professional in your area.
