FAQs

What is animal communication?

Animal communication connects with animals' energy via meditation somewhat like telepathy. By tuning into the same frequency as the animal, energy flows between us. My brain then translates the energy I receive into words, smells, feelings in my physical body, and emotions. Through this technique animals, if they are willing, can share their needs, their past, insights into their behaviour, and messages they have for their owners. Oftentimes, their messages pertain to traumas or needs of their owners. So through animal communication we can understand more about our animal but also about ourselves.

How do you heal animals?

Because I am neither a veterinarian or a medical doctor I prefer not to use 'heal' in my practice. However, I use Bach flowers, energy therapy (Usui Reiki), and naturopathy to support animals and humans. I also provide concrete canine behaviour tips and tricks for dog owners should they be necessary. Animals (and humans) often feel better after being listened to or putting words to what they feel. This is another most simplest way to 'heal'.

Can owners benefit too?

Yes, due to the well-documented mirror effect, pets can often reflect what owners are going through. In those cases the pets will often provide the means and the words to help their owners. Sometimes a pet will ask for a reiki session or a particular Bach Flower remedy or some other form of natural therapy to help their owner. In that way, I provide support to the animal and their owner for personal issues or traumas of owners. For established pathologies or for a diagnostic, please refer to a medical doctor or veterinarian.

What is the mirror effect?

The mirror effect highlights the intimate connection between owners and their pets. There has been many documented cases where an animal can develop a pathology or a behaviour like anxiety after their owner have been diagnosed with the same pathology or have experienced a trauma causing anxiety. This mirroring effect can also serve as a warning to the owner. Supporting the animal can also have the same effect and have a relieving effect for their owners.

Can the animal not want to communicate?

Yes it is possible that an animal may refuse a communication. This can be because they do not want to share the message or may feel that I or their owner, are not ready to transmit or hear the message or that the owner is not ready to hear the message. In this case, I will always respect the wishes of the animal and try to communicate at a later time.

I'd like an appointment. Now what?

Once I am contacted for an animal communication, we make an appointment via phone, WhatsApp, or Zoom so I understand the needs and boundaries for the communication. I do the communication and provide a detailed written report. Once the report is ready, I reach out to the owner to discuss the session, the conclusions, next steps and answer any questions before sending the report out to the owner(s). After a few weeks, I will check-in with the owner(s) on the progress.

What can I expect out of an animal communication?

Animals will provide answers to your questions (whether they are alive or have passed). They can communicate their needs about their health, environment, food, toys, pains, remedies, etc.... They can also address their emotional and spiritual needs (as in whether they are in their life's mission. However, at times it can be about the owner. Due to the mirror effect, animals can feel their owner's needs as well whether it is an old wound that is causing illness in their owner or an impending physical issue (heart attack, epilepsy, cancer, joint pain, or any other ailment) or even em

Can I take Bach Flowers if I am taking medications?

Yes - there are no proven interactions between Bach Flowers and medications.

What if I do not feel any different after a Bach Flower treatment?

Although rare, it can happen that there are no discernable results after a 21-day treatment. Sometimes there are multiple causes behind a certain emotion and behaviour and due to the subtleties of the flowers the wrong one may have been identified. If this is the case, we revisit the initial problematic and design a new mix (Maximum of 7 flowers) to be taken after a 7-day break.

Can I have a Reiki session if I do not like massages?

Yes. Reiki can be performed hands-on, hands-off and even at a distance from the privacy of your own home. As humans we have an energy field around us that spans from a few meters to many kilometers which makes it possible to have remote reiki sessions.

Would reiki work for me even though I do not believe in it?

Yes. We are all energy. What you feel during and after a reiki session depends on your level of sensitivity. You can feel warm, cold, tingling, shivering, tears, sadness, joy, laugh, see colours or have memories or images come to mind. You can also feel nothing but a deep sense of relaxation. Regardless of what you feel, or not, the energy channeled through me will go to where it needs to in your body to re-establish balance.
