I was born to a medical doctor and his wife, and discovered my own healing ability in 1998, when I got my first healing attunement in Usui Reiki.  Since that time, I have been facilitating healing in both people and animals.  I am fortunate to have received attunements from Kathryn Ward-Hall, Karen Hunsberger, and Bob Wolfe. The Rock Center is the fulfillment of my dream of opening a healing practice for people and animals.

I was the owner/operator of a pet salon for 12 years.  In that time, I witnessed the frustrations of owners who had pets in poor health, and pets with behavior problems.  The result of observing these relationships, helpless to do anything about their problems, led me to seek out the ability to solve those problems for people.  I thought in addition to the healing energy of Reiki, maybe I could learn to communicate with the animals, too.  Thus was born the communication aspect of the Rock Center.  I was taught by Jeri Ryan in the tradition of the Penelope Smith method.   I have been practicing animal communication since 2000.
