A Few Easy Steps

You Pick Your Session

• Decide what session is best for your needs

• Pick your day and time

• Make your payment

• Fill out your forms

• Send a picture of the animal(s) you want to connect with (sending a picture in which I can see their eyes ensures that I connect with your fur/scale/hide-baby and not some random internet cat)

We Connect

• 24 hours before your appointment, I will send you a Zoom link

• You click on that link a few minutes prior to your appointment time and the fun begins

• We have a 3-way conversation - you, me and your animal (don’t worry, you’ll only see my lips move) this gives us an opportunity to clarify information and ask questions as they come up

• I record this conversation and give you a copy when it’s finished for you to replay whenever you’d like

• If you’ve opted for the 45 or 75-minute session, this is when we’d schedule your follow-up

Don’t get me Confused with Someone with a Degree!

Please note that I am not, nor do I claim to be, a Veterinarian or Animal Trainer. I am simply a bridge to help you communicate with your animal and he or she communicate with you. I may also share my opinions, but no part of this information should be used in lieu of professional medical or training advice.

Technically Speaking…

Animal communication is a bridge between the animal(s) and the practitioner’s minds that allows information, emotions, intentions, and images to move between these minds without the use of speech.

I use telepathy (direct mind-to-mind communication), clairvoyance (visual images or scenes), clairaudience (auditory messages in forms of words or sentences), clairsentience (feelings, emotions or impressions) and claircognizance (just knowing without knowing how I know) to receive and translate these nonverbal messages.

The Translation is Where it gets Tricky

(Really, Cathy, THAT’S where it gets tricky?) Yeah, actually, it is. I have to use the culmination of my knowledge, experiences and feelings to interpret all this information, so it’s always going to be biased and tilted toward my understanding and interpretation. This is why 5 different animal communicators will get 5 different twists on the same message from one animal. I originally thought that if I’m connecting to the right animal and I’m talking to them, I should be 100% accurate 100% of the time. I quickly realized that communication doesn’t work that way - even if you’re the same species speaking the same language. It’s always going to be filtered through the speaker’s lense, the interpreter’s lense and the listener’s lense. It’s an imperfect art - interpreted, translated then fed back to you.

So how does it work?

Honestly, I don’t think anyone really knows. I have some ideas - like somehow, I’ve been given a gift from God. Or everyone has this ability, I’ve just had a lifetime of developing it and going down the paths that have led me here. There’s the theory that all information is floating in some energetic cosmic plane and some people can tap into it. What I do know is that just like a cell phone, computer or even prayer, I don’t know how they work but I still utilize them and benefit greatly from doing so. Maybe the value isn’t in the understanding of it. I can talk to and understand animals. I love to share that gift with others. It makes my world a better place and it really helps the animal kingdom. I’m an animal lover. If I can make their world a better place, too, I’m all for that.

Some Ways it’s Helped

Most people seek an animal communication session for

• behavior issues - to help iron out the rough spots when integrating a new dog into the family with established pets or random fighting that happens between pets

• end-of-life process, to express what your animal may be feeling about it and help to ease your mind

• easing human guilt and unease in how they passed or how things might have been different if the human had known it was coming

• reveal their pasts so that the humans have a better understanding of what rescued animals may have been through - if they’re sensitive to certain noises or smells or activities

If you can think of how communication may help a human-to-human relationship, chances are it will help an animal-to-human or animal-to-animal relationship. It replaces chaos, confusion and judgment with peace, calmness and understanding - on both sides of the leash.

Why do They do What They do?

Animals have reasons for their actions. Sometimes it’s pain, sometimes it’s confusion or an old fear. Sometimes (a lot of the time) it’s a desire to please but no clear path on how to go about that. A communication session brings out what your pet can’t tell you in words—helping you address needs you never realized were there. You might discover your dog’s “bad behavior” is actually anxiety about a new routine, or your cat’s distance is about wanting more personal space. It helps us as humans reach understanding and compassion while the animals feel heard and seen - helping to eliminate the animals’ need to act out in inappropriate ways to get our attention. Let me be your bridge to a deeper, more balanced relationship with your beloved animal companion.
