Animal Communicator and Behavior Specialist - Nationwide

Verified Member since Nov 2019 Verified checkmark

As an Animal Communicator and Behavior Specialist, I am dedicated to bridging the communication gap between you and your beloved pets. With close to 30 years of experience in energy healing, I specialize in addressing emotional and behavioral issues through a unique combination of animal communication, Resonance Repatterning, EFT, Reiki, and flower essences. These techniques are not only effective for physical and emotional healing but also help in releasing negative memories and trauma.

My expertise covers a wide range of pet-related challenges, from sudden aggression and unwanted behaviors to complex transitions like moving homes or welcoming new family members. I am here to guide you in understanding and interpreting your pets' non-verbal cues, helping you forge a deeper connection.

Through my services, I focus on uncovering the root causes of your pet's distress, which can sometimes mirror your own emotional state or upheavals. This unique approach enables me to provide tailored guidance, not just for your pet, but for you as well, ensuring that both of you can achieve a harmonious balance.

I teach and empower you to hear your animal's messages intuitively (telepathically) and interpret their body language.

Whether your pet is a rescue with a traumatic past, or a cherished companion facing a challenges or a change, I am ready to help with communication and healing.

I invite you to take the first step by scheduling an initial consultation with me. During this session, we will explore how my services can best support your needs and those of your furry family member.

With my guidance, you can expect to see improvements in just one or two sessions, occasionally requiring additional follow-up for more complex issues. Let's work together to bring peace, healing and understanding to your beloved pet and your household. Ready to get started? Book me through Petworks today!

Pricing Packages

Communication & Healing Complete Package
$ 180.00 Per Package book

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.

Initial Consultation (20-30 minutes)
$ 50.00 Per 30 minutes book

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.
