Frequently Asked Questions

In my experience we all have the ability to talk to animals. We all have intuition and this may have been lying dormant or been suppressed in some way, often from childhood. As a child we are free to express our intuition and it may be labelled as fantasy or make believe. As we grow up, we may be encouraged to set aside our vivid imaginations and this can lead to us not developing our natural abilities. I have had the joy of teaching animal communication to more than eighty people and they all had experiences of being able to connect with animals and are feeling that they can understand the animals in their lives on a deeper level after taking a class.

Animal Communication - Talking to and Listening to Animals.

Animal communication is a beautiful way to support your animal and to understand them better. I tune in to your animal’s energy and talk to them to find out how they are feeling and what they are thinking. I ask you to send me questions to ask them and messages to give them. It can help an animal to feel safe to express what is going on for them, from their perspective and can help to address behavioural, emotional and physical issues. It can help to bring you closer together in love and understanding.

Why is animal communication important? My top 5 reasons.

Transformational Bodywork is an incredible healing method that looks at an animal or person as a whole, on a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level. It’s extremely popular with the animals I connect with. A session may include a chakra balance and alignment, aura healing up to the seventh layer of the aura, past life healing, soul retrieval, attunements, messages from angels and ascended masters, clearing of old stagnant energies and deep grounding.

Reiki is a well-recognised healing method that can bring deep relief, clearing, support and improved energy levels. I channel this healing energy through my body and through my hands and I am directed as to where it is most needed in the body. It works on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level and focuses on clearing and healing the major chakras in the body. When the chakras are aligned, connected and clear this can bring an improved flow of energy through the body. Reiki can help to support and enhance an animal or person’s natural healing process.

Multidimensional healing is a more advanced version of Transformational Bodywork. It explores what we need on a multidimensional level, to feel whole and to feel in balance on a mental, emotional, physical and spiritual level. A session may include healing for the aura beyond the seventh layer, advanced chakra healing and clearing beyond the seven major chakras of the body, release of curses, oaths and vows, advanced past life healing, future life healing, DNA activation and connections to Source, High Masters and Higher Angelic realms.

Past life healing is a method I use to access past lives for an animal or person and to explore these in a gentle and supportive way. This is not a regression therapy and there is a focus on healing anything that may need to be healed and then bringing the gifts back from the past life to the present lifetime. In my experience we can carry echoes of past lives that affect our everyday wellbeing and this is true for animals too. A fear or behaviour in this lifetime may have been brought through from a previous lifetime and past life healing can help to release this and bring a change that is helpful and relieving.

An attunement is a blessing for you or your animal that is channelled through me from an Archangel, Ascended Master or Guide. An attunement is a message of love and support, that can bring guidance and direction. It also raises the vibration of the recipient and this can make it easier to cope with life and to bring a higher perspective above day to day living. The additional bonus is that the being who asked for the attunement to be directed to you or your animal, is doing so because they want to support you and it opens up a way of you asking for help from them whenever you feel you need it.

An Animal Attunement is directed by your animal to bring a deeper connection between themselves and their guardian and family. It brings through blessings for everyone involved.

How animals can guide their own healing.

Yes, you can. I’m so sorry if you are reading this because you have lost a loved one. I understand what that is like, as I too have lost family members. One of the services that I offer is to communicate with animals in spirit and to find out how they are, what their experience is like and if they have any messages for you. I encourage you to send me questions and messages that I can ask and convey to them. Connecting with your animal in spirit, in this way, can really help you with your grieving process and bring greater peace into your life.

You can read more in my blog, "Animal past lives, animals in spirit and animal transitions."

Yes, you can! This is one of my favourite things! Angels are trying to connect with us and support us in our lives. I am very blessed to be able to channel messages from the angelic realms for both animals and people. You can request this as part of a healing or animal communication session.

Animal communication can be an important key that uncovers why an animal is behaving in a certain way. Understanding “why”, helps in working out how to help an animal to change their reactions and responses. I have found many times, that the root lies in an experience that was scary or unsettling for an animal. Giving them the opportunity to talk about and share their experience with their guardian, is frequently the way forward in changing a behaviour.

You can read more about this in my blog, "How animal communication can help you and your animal."

If your animal expresses anxious behaviours you may like my online mini class:

Easy Animal Communication for Anxious Animals.

Healing is one way to help an animal that is behaving in a stressed, anxious or aggressive way. In my experience, there is often an emotional source to the behaviour and healing for the emotions can help to start addressing the behaviour itself. It may take several healing sessions to get to the bottom of why an animal is behaving a certain way and to start seeing a change in behaviour. I may suggest a combination of healing with applied zoopharmacognosy and animal communication.

Applied Zoopharmacognosy is a holistic healing method, whereby animals are offered natural plant remedies for self selection. Self selection means that the animal chooses what remedy they would like and how they would like to experience it. This may be by licking, inhaling, rolling in it or by having it applied to them. (This is slightly different for cats and they self select by rolling on herbs and clays and inhaling some essential oils and plant extracts).

Remedies may be self selected for a range of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual issues. The remedies include essential oils, plant extracts, CO2 extracts, hydrosols, herbs, plant powders, beeswax, oils and clays.

It’s important to note that this is different from adding herbs or remedies to your animal’s food and these are mainly not foods being offered, but plant remedies that are self selected for their medicinal values. It helps to enrich the life of a domesticated animal, by giving them the opportunity to choose their own natural remedies for their wellbeing, in the same way that their wild ancestors and wild peers have been seen to do. 

You can hear me speak about Applied Zoopharmacognosy in this interview.

I am so sorry to hear that you have lost a beloved animal. I know just how difficult this can be, having experienced this myself. One of the things that I have found that can really help with the grieving process, is an animal communication session to connect you with your animal in spirit. I ask you for questions and messages and I connect with your animal and find out how they are doing and if they have messages for you too. It can really help to have some of your unanswered questions answered. I do all of this with love and respect and with the intention to support you during this difficult time.

Animal Communication Top Tips to Help Dogs and Cats with Holiday Separation Anxiety

Animals are very sensitive to human emotions and they often pick up when we are sad, upset or angry. If we don’t let them know what’s happening and the reasons for our emotions, they can sometimes feel they’ve done something to cause it or start behaving in an out of character way. If you’re going through an emotional time, it may be helpful to have an animal communication session with your animal, to explain what you’re experiencing and to give them the opportunity to understand.

You can read more in my blog, "Can my animal feel what I am feeling?"

In my experience animals grieve the loss of their animal and human friends and family. This can be quite profound and show itself as a loss of appetite, losing interest in activities they used to enjoy, overgrooming, depression and anxious behaviours. You may have lost a family animal or a family member and noticed a change in the way your animal is behaving since this happened.

One of the things that can really help is to explain to your animal what has happened and for you to share how you feel about your loss. I find that if you include an animal in the grieving process, it can really help them to deal with their own emotions.

An animal communication and healing session with me would be a good idea if you are worried about the impact of grief on your animal. A session gives your animal the opportunity to express to you, how they are feeling. I am often guided to link an animal to a loved one in spirit, during a session. This can bring great comfort, reduce stress levels and provide a much needed emotional release. I offer suggestions for how to further support your animal in their grief and if you are grieving too, it can bring support and release for you as well.

This is far more common than you may expect and I have heard countless accounts of family members hearing, sensing, or glimpsing their animal after they have passed into spirit. I have had these experiences too. You may even have an experience where it feels like your dog or cat has jumped onto the bed or onto the sofa beside you. You may notice your other animals or children interacting with what could be described as a “spirit visitor”.

These “visits” and interactions often happen because an animal you have lost is wanting to still connect with you, check in to see how you are and bring you some much needed comfort.

Having an animal communication session with me, to connect with your animal in spirit may help you to understand if there is a message for you behind these visits and what that message is. It can be a huge comfort to have a session where you can ask questions and find out how your animal is now that they have transformed into spirit. This can help to support you in your grieving process and enable you to talk to your animal even though they are no longer with you in physical form.

Animal communication is so important if you want to develop an even closer and more loving relationship with an animal in your life. Animals are “talking” to us all the time! They have a certain “look” for a treat, a certain bark or miaow for food, a certain wiggle when they greet someone they adore. They are also talking to us with visual images, with their inner voice, through their feelings and emotions. Many times you may feel that you are being asked a question by your animal, but you don’t know what that question is or how to help your animal.

I strongly believe that animal communication is an ability we can all access. It’s simply a question of understanding what your own strengths are in receiving and sending messages. For example you may be amazing at feeling an emotion from your animal, or you may sense that something is wrong. These are clues for you to be able to find out what your animal needs. When you are helped to explore and unlock your own innate abilities, through my animal communication classes, you feel more empowered to help your animal and to talk to them on a completely different level.

When an animal knows that it is heard and understood, it can bring them emotional support, a shift away from unwanted behaviours, an increase in confidence and a deepening of their relationship with you and their family. Most of all though, I feel that when you make a commitment to learning to speak their language, it unlocks something very deep in your relationship and the trust and love expand, bringing a new level of joy to your very special connection.

My blog, "Why is animal communication important? My top 5 reasons," looks at this in more detail.

I love teaching animal communication and have a range of online classes available.

Yes!

☆ When an animal has the opportunity to share things from their perspective it leads to greater understanding of who they are.

☆ We can find out what they want or need.

☆ We can find out how they feel!

☆ All of this makes it possible for you to develop an even deeper bond with the animals in your life and to bring you greater peace and a sense of empowered guardianship.

"Heart led" communication and healing means that you and your animal will always receive the most compassionate and kind support. I am passionate about ensuring you both feel cared for, nurtured and as if you can tell me anything. You will be met with unconditional love.

Animal Attunements are an exciting area of my work that I am now offering to animals and animal guardians worldwide. They have evolved from my deep connection with animals and especially when I have been healing with Animal Communication. I have found that some animals may need a stronger energetic connection to their guardian, in order for them to feel safe, to be able to release fears and tension and to heal. I am guided by the animal to give their ‘human’ an attunement to their own specialised and unique animal energy signature. This brings amazing connections of deeper understanding and compassion and has also resulted in some instances, in sparking the owner being able to communicate with their animal and vice versa.

You can read more in my blog:

Holistic care for bees with animal communication and animal attunements.

My approach is "Animal led", meaning that when I connect with your animal, I allow them to guide the healing and communication that best matches their needs. In my experience animals know what they need in order to achieve balance and wellbeing. This is why it's so important to listen to them and allow them to fully participate in their sessions.

During a session I allow an animal to guide the way their healing comes to them and what sort of healing they would like. They communicate what they need for their highest good and it may be that they want to receive emotional healing first, before having healing for a physical issue. Because I can talk to animals, I find it easy to find out what they need. I often combine animal communication with past life healing or transformational bodywork, for example, so that an animal receives what they need for their overall wellbeing and healing. When you’re booking a session with me, I will often connect in with your animal to see what their preference is and let you know this.

Animal communication is always a good place to start, because this enables you to get a clearer picture of what your animal may need.

I highly encourage you having a free discovery call with me, so that we can talk over the options and you can feel confident in your decision about how to proceed with help for your animal.

The short answer is yes! From my experience with animal communication, I can see how it impacts on the relationships people have with their animals. It can lead to a deepening of love and trust and bring a new level of understanding. It can help to open up a dialogue, especially in cases where the relationship seems strained, or you feel that you can’t get through to your animal. By being able to explain how you feel to your animal and finding out how they feel in return, you can find a way forward in building a trusting and easier relationship.

How Animal Communication can help you and your animal.

Does my animal know that I love them?

This has come from the animals themselves! They are really bringing through the energy of family and partnership in their interactions with me and it feels much more fitting to describe the love people share with the special animals in their lives, as guardianship rather than ownership.

This can vary, depending on what the issue is. Every animal and every situation is unique and I will make suggestions depending on how long an issue has been going on or how acute a situation is. My aim is to provide you and your animal with the support you need.

Sometimes one session is enough to achieve balance and then you can contact me for further sessions in the future as and when you need them. I often recommend booking in for 3 sessions which can be used over a period of 3 months, so that you feel supported as you and your animal work through some issues or heal from a physical or emotional issue.

Some issues and behaviours that are being experienced, need longer term support and I will work with an animal over the course of a year. For example, animals who have suffered abuse or cruelty at some point in their lives may need regular check ins and sessions to help them to adjust and recover from their experiences.

I feel very blessed, in that I have many regular clients who return to me for support throughout their animal’s lives. You and your animals matter to me.

Yes, I send a fortnightly newsletter. You can sign up here. 

Yes, I have a regular blog 

There could be a number of reasons! In my experience though it is most frequently because an animal is trying to get a message across to you and you can’t quite get what it is. I can help with that by finding out what their message is!

Sometimes, the stare can be about wanting or needing something (hands up if you are stared at, when it’s time for food!) A stare can also happen when a dog or cat are trying to read your expression. They live with us as family and they may be looking to us for social cues to see if they are ok in doing what they are doing. In those instances, a word of reassurance ought to bring relaxation.

You can read more about this in my blog, "How animal communication can help you and your animal."

Animals are so good at picking up on emotions and they feel love very clearly. One thing I recommend trying with your animal is to sit quietly with them and show them the way you feel about them by connecting to your heart and sending them love. I’d love to hear how you get on with that!

An animal communication session can be the perfect way to check in on how your animal is and to send them special messages of love through me. I can then bring you back messages of love in your animal’s words.

You can read more in my blog "Does my animal know that I love them".

One of the biggest reasons that I’m so passionate about animal communication is because I see it deepen the love and trust between an animal and their guardian. It brings a new level of understanding for one another. You can understand what your animal is thinking and feeling and they can understand what you are thinking and feeling too.
