Frequently Asked Questions

Where does an energy healing session take place?

Energy healing sessions for your animal friend are conducted long distance at an agreed upon day and time. The guardian does not have to be on the phone with me during the session, the connection is completely between the animal and I. With my training, and using a picture I connect to the animal that I am working with and then proceed with the energy healing session. Over the years the animals have shown me that this is their most preferred way of receiving energy healing work as it enables them to stay comfortable in their own home/surroundings without having to deal with the physicality of my presence, i.e., smell, touch, etc. For animals who are fearful, shy and/or uncomfortable with direct touch, this works wonderfully well.

How can you work with my animal friend without being physically with them?

Everything is made up of energy; humans and animals are energetic beings. Energy is what gives us life and connects us all to each other.

When we use our cell phones to call someone in another location, energy travels from one cell phone to another to make the connection successful. Although we don't actually see this line of energy with our eyes going from one phone to another, it is still being transmitted helping one person to connect to another. Energy healing work performed long distance is the same concept. The human eye cannot see it, but my energy is connecting to the energy of the animal I am working with.

How should I prepare my animal friend’s energy healing session?

The energy healing session for your animal friend should be at a time where there will be no distractions such as feeding, walking, visitors, etc. This is a sacred and private time of healing for the animal.

Many of my clients purposely leave their house so that the animal can have privacy and be able to fully concentrate on their own healing. For guardians who prefer to be at home for the session, I usually recommend that they go about doing something on their own, so that the animal does not feel they are being watched or needed by their human friend during their session.

When the session starts most animals find a comfortable spot to lay down and then fall into a meditative or sleep state. It’s important that the animal chooses an area that “they” feel is most conducive to healing for them whether that space be near other animals/humans or away from them.

What happens during an energy healing session?

After the animal gives me his/her permission to proceed with the energy healing session, I scan his/her energy field and take note of any energetic disruptions/blocks. I then begin helping the animal to release any blocks that are present to encourage a good overall energy flow in their system. The animal guides me to where healing is needed.

How long does an energy healing session last?

Energy healing sessions usually last approx. a half-hour. Every animal is an individual with their own unique situation, so there are times when sessions may go longer.

If there are other animals in the house, will this interfere with the session?

No. Animals are sensitive beings and are usually aware of the deep healing work taking place for a particular individual in their herd, pack and/or family. Most animals usually respect/support this process.

However, it is important that the animal receiving the session not be placed in an area with another animal they normally have violent conflicts with or heightened emotional reactions to as this sort of dynamic can cause a disruption.

What can I expect after the session is over?

After the session is over, the guardian will receive a typed full report of the animals’ session results. In this way, the guardian has a record of what transpired for future referencing. The report can be further discussed by email or phone.

After an energy healing session, animals begin an integration process whereby their bodies process the new energies they received. This can last for several days. While they process the healing work animals may sleep more, eat/drink more and/or be more energetic. Animals are individuals, so their responses can be different.

When an animal releases energy blocks in their system their body also may possibly detoxify itself and release toxins. Sometimes (but rarely) an animal may experience diarhea and/or vomitting.

When emotional blocks are released, the emotional energy will come to the surface for the animal to process. They will need to fully feel this in order to move past it. In this case, sometimes a behavioral issue may appear to worsen slightly before getting better.

How many sessions will my animal friend need?

The amount of energy healing sessions needed really depends on the animal’s situation and their response to the initial session. I work closely with the animal and guardian to determine if and when another session would be beneficial. On average, 2-3 sessions (one per week) usually works nicely as each session builds upon another. However, depending on the severity of their situation, some animals may need additional sessions sooner.

If energy healing is for maintenance purposes then I usually recommend one session per month. Healing is a process and should not be rushed as this can overwhelm animals who very sensitive beings. The processing time in between sessions is just as important as the session itself. Often our animal friends will indicate to us when it’s time for another.

Will energy healing hurt my animal friend in any way?

Absolutely not. Energy healing is a gentle, non-invasive healing modality and animals love to receive it for that reason. Rest assured your animal friend will feel comfortable, loved and completely supported during an energy healing session and he/she will be in charge of their own healing at all times.
