Animals can become sick or injured for most of the reasons that humans do. They catch a biological illness from the air, from contact with other animals, from tainted food or water, or they have emotional difficulties or stressful situations that cause physical symptoms or behaviors to manifest. They can develop ailments from old age or are prone to ailments due to their particular physiology. Animals can also act out when they become confused or frustrated or their needs are misunderstood.
Healing for many behavioral problems, emotional distress, and physical ailments can be facilitated by cooperative treatment provided by the owner or responsible party, a qualified veterinarian or specialist, and a trained healer. Working together with the animal we can determine the cause(s) of the symptoms displayed and what course(s) of action would best support the animal in its healing. Not all situations can be healed so please be prepared to do what is most responsible for the animal once all the facts have been determined.
***** Before seeking any advice or remedy for an animal in distress please contact a qualified veterinarian or animal specialist!
I have trained with the elders of my people and several other tribes for many years and learned the techniques of healing used by us to heal animals, totems, and familiars for centuries. These healing ways look at the animal as a small “person” with their own needs and ways of being which are to be honored and supported just as our must be to heal. I look at the physical manifestation of the illness, be that physical illness or behavior, as well as looking at the animal’s energetic vibration or soul to see where there may be disharmony or imbalance. Working with the veterinarian or animal specialist involved with the healing process I can devise a treatment plan which will guide and support the animal in healing. Each animal and each dis-ease is unique and each healing plan is individually developed specifically for that animal to best meet their needs.
In the matter of behavior problems, like all other relationships, your relationship with the animal, be they pet, familiar, livestock, or wildlife visitor, requires conversation, flexibility, and patience. Not all behaviors are personality traits that are doomed to go on forever or must be trained away. Some are stimulated as sign posts pointing towards other issues to be resolved. They can be caused by allergies, personality conflicts, or confusion as to expectations or the meaning of events and surroundings. They can stem from emotional distress, simple confusion, or unmet needs. Some have simple remedies and others take drastic measures to resolve. Only the animal themselves knows for sure what these issues are and communication with the animal is the one sure way to resolve them.
If your animal is in need of support and healing or you just want to get to know and understand them better, please contact me and I will do my best to set the wheels in motion. First appointments are used for intake evaluations, although some simple problems or issues may be clarified within the first appointment. These appointments are scheduled for two hours and subsequent appointments can be scheduled at that time. Intake appointments are $50.00 at the time of the appointment. For phone consultations payment arrangements must be made in advance. To make an appointment please contact me at (503) 493-9560 or you can send email to teri@spiritwithinus.com.
Blessings to you and all your loved ones.
