Animal Communicator and Behavior Specialist - Nationwide
Sudden (or slowly building) problem behaviors, aggression, fears/anxiety. For issues that come up around household transitions(changes in routine, a move, new animal or human member of household, grief and loss). Also helpful for any kind of adjustments and for senior and end of life passage.
Animals can't speak in words--so they try to tell us with their behavior--that they have an issue or need help. Sometimes, like us, they need so much to be heard! We humans don't always understand what they are trying to say.
As an animal communicator, I help you bridge that gap. I not only help you understand your animals but also learn how to hear them and communicate better with them.
What makes my work even more effective is that I combine communication with several energy healing techniques (Reiki, Resonance Repatterning and Flower essences). As an energy healer I help your animal to clear negative memories, trauma and issues from the past.
Why seek my help? Common reasons people ask me to help their furry family members are things like:
Sudden changes in habits or mood, negative behaviors like aggression or inappropriate peeing, conflicts with other animals in the household, difficulty adjusting to a new environment, and grief.
All animals have some history, some old patterns that need to shift. The good news is that my work can often help, and quickly. Animals tend to be very open to the work I do.
With rescues especially I've seen some very moving results--they really need the energy healing work I do. They so often have had some form of abuse, abandonment and other trauma before they come to us. We often know nothing, or very little about what happened to them (and even if we do, what then? The repatterning work can really help).
Even with non-rescues who had a happy childhood, household changes (new animal, new baby, new partner, a move, other changes in routine and schedule) can create upsets and problem behaviors.
More about me and how I work:
I've been working as an energy healer for close to 30 years--with humans and with animals. I'm certified in more than 8 different modalities, 5 of which can be used for animals. I combine Animal communication, Resonance Repatterning (addresses emotional/ behavioral patterns), EFT, Reiki and flower essences. I sometimes suggest essential oils as well.
We do an initial consultation to explore what you need, how I work and whether there is a fit. The next step is to set up the first session, and we go from there. Often an animal needs just one or two sessions, sometimes with some follow-up. Most of the time it works quite quickly.
As a follow-up and way to enhance the healing/communication sessions, I may offer Reiki energy healing (by distance), or recommend flower essences. I find the best essences for animals are Alaskan flower essences, Spirit-in-Nature, and the Flower Essence Society essences.
I've mainly worked with dogs and cats, a few horses, and a wolf-dog, but any animal can benefit.
Please contact me to explore whether this work could help your beloved animal companion in a 20 minute consultation.

Pricing Packages
Includes the following: 1) Initial consultation 2) The session itself of animal communication and/or energy healing. 3) Conversaton after the session, to review what was covered in the session, plus other follow up recommendations. May include suggested flower essence if called for. 4) The package fee is based on up to 2 hours of my time.
Note: This work is effective! Usually a single package is all that is needed. Once in a while, if the animal has had a lot of trauma or difficult situations, or the situation is complex (eg multiple animals, a move, change in the household) one or two more sessions may be needed.
We explore your reason for wanting healing or communication services--what is going on with the animal. I will make recommendations, and explain how I do my work. I also let you know how we will proceed, if you decide to work with me. If you hire me, the initial consultation fee is counted towards your first session.
