-About-

Hey, I’m Joanna

Animal Lover, Gardener, Trekkie

I create a safe space for you to communicate with your animal companion and truly understand how they feel and experience the world

Communication is key to healthy, loving relalshionships

(including with your pets)

It’s not easy to get out of your head and move past the projections of what you think is going on with your pet. This can be especially tricky if you are empathic or energy-sensitive.

You and your animal friend are already beautifully tuned in to each other’s everyday needs. But when something feels off—when you sense a shift in behavior the noise of your own worry, insecurities and grief can quickly clog up your intuitive channels leaving you trying to guess and form assumptions about what you think might be going on with them… Before you know it, you're left guessing and assuming instead of truly understanding.

But here’s the thing—assumptions and projections don’t create connection. In fact, they block intuitive communication faster than a dog can hear cheese hit the floor.

That’s where I come in. Let’s gather around the Zoom cauldron and have a real, heart-to-heart conversation with your animal companion. As an animal communicator, I’ll help you understand what’s on their mind, how they feel, and what they truly need—so your bond stays strong, rooted in love, trust, and deep understanding.

Your animal friend has so much to talk with you about

Let’s give them the chance to share

Hey, I’m Joanna

I believe that our connection with our animal friends is one of the safest places to be our true selves.

Animals see right through our masks and past our B.S., and remind us—again and again—that we are lovable and worthy just as we are.

Animal communication gives you the chance to talk with your pets about it all, offering life-changing glimpses into the unique ways they see and experience the world.

For over 20 years, I’ve helped sensitive animal lovers have deep, meaningful conversations with the animals in their lives. And, dear intuitive one, I’d love to support you too.

How I became an animal communicator

My deep dive into all things witchy and intuitive began at the wee age of 12. As a teen, I eagerly attended every kid-friendly class I could find—learning Reiki, channeling, automatic writing, and, of course, animal communication. Even back then, I was hooked.

I officially opened my healing practice wayyy back in 1996. (Eeek! I was SO YOUNG!!) At the time, my focus was on intuitive massage therapy and embodied shamanic healing.

After decades of practice, I shifted gears in 2008 to offer intuitive animal communication full-time—and I haven’t looked back since.

In every way possible, I am wired for this work. I have a knack for seeing the big picture, holding space for tender matters of the heart, and using my finely tuned intuitive goggles to sense and transform the emotional and spiritual baggage that can get in the way of true connection.

I will tell you like it is

I will share what I hear from your animals as clearly as possible and I share it in a common language- with the perfect amount of swearing. I’ll deliver your pet’s insights with profound integrity, healthy boundaries, and heart-felt transparency.

Intuitive one, I am honored to begin with you.
