I started to see and feel energy when I was 16 years old. I didn’t fully understand what I was perceiving, however, until I was in my late twenties. At that time my mother suggested I take some Healing Touch classes. I had always been interested in helping people overcome emotional difficulties, and I thought that energy work might be another way for me to help facilitate healing within people. I completed a B.A. and then an M.A. in Applied Behavioural Science and became a Registered Clinical Counsellor. I worked as a Counsellor at Hollyburn Family Services in North Vancouver, BC for 11 years before I was drawn to working with animals. I became certified as a Healing Touch for Animals Practitioner in 2015.
