Animal Communicator (AC)
Animal Lover
I have always been obsessed with animals. As a child, I wanted to be a veterinarian. Obsessed with horses, I took years of English Saddle lessons throughout most of my life. I also participated in and volunteered at a variety of equine events through several different equine clubs. I presently volunteer as a healer and AC at Circle A Home for Horses, an equine rescue, in VA Beach, VA.
Healer
After college, I worked as a research assistant at Yale University’s Medical School, in the fields of neurology and psychiatry. I then attended Syracuse University and obtained a Master’s Degree in Psychiatric Social Work (MSW). After graduation, I worked in various medical settings. Years later, I broadened my healing knowledge and studied Eastern Medicine ("Energy Medicine") and became a Reiki Master, Tai Chi instructor, and Crystal and Chakra healer.
Animal communicator (AC)
In the 1980's I attended an AC lecture in Northern Virginia, given by an internationally known AC, Diane Roadcap. Afterwards, I was so impressed, I asked Diane to connect with my older ailing guinea pig, Toupee.
During the pandemic, I discovered online courses and books teaching AC. Lots of people teach it, mostly in the UK. Then I found Udemy, a massive online learning platform. It lists Instructors who create and sell courses on virtually any topic, including AC. After years of studying and practising this subject, I felt confident communicating with animals.
I connect telepathically, entirely through the modality of “clair-audience" (clear hearing). I ask an animal a question and then hear their answers in words in my mind. Being a former therapist taught me how to facilitate a conversation and build a rapport with them. I earned my certification after five years of study and practice.
I decided to form “Critter Chatter” in 2025, not only to help as many animals and owners as possible but also
introduce more people to this form of communication. If we all learned it, we could build a better environment for everyone.
