In-spirit pet communication sessions
Intuitive support for when you and your pet had to say goodbye too soon
Saying goodbye to a pet is never easy..
But when your goodbye was sudden or traumatic, or your tender heart didn’t have the time it needed to prepare, the grief and regret following the loss of your best friend can be overwhelming.
Maybe you can still sense your pet’s spirit around you, and that’s making your grieving process even harder. Or perhaps you were so used to feeling their presence around you, and now that you suddenly don't, it feels like you've lost a part of your soul in addition to your best friend.
And sometimes, just giving yourself more time isn't enough.
You need to know if they're okay, if they're safe. These sessions can help you touch base with your pet and regain a sense of balance after your profound loss.
The Details
These sessions are for energy-sensitive empaths seeking to reconnect with their pet’s spirit and find balance after loss
Who this is for: If you are struggling to adjust to the loss of your pet’s physical presence in your life and you want to reconnect with them to talk about what you each taught each other during your time together, you, my friend, are in the right place.
What these sessions offer: Sessions offer you in-spirit animal communication with your pet. And when applicable, we include energy work for you and your pet to help you both acclimate to the physical separation and loss you are experiencing.
These sessions are a little longer than my usual 60-minute sessions, giving us room to slow down and tend to matters of the heart and spirit.
What these sessions are not: These sessions are not therapy. They can support your healing work with a grief counselor but are not a suitable replacement for that important care. These sessions are also not intended for pets who have gone missing or for finding a lost pet.
These sessions won’t take away your grief, but they will add a layer of intuitive support and a deeper understanding of your life and purpose together.
All sessions are held via Zoom (phone is also an option for those in the US)
Fee: 75-minute session focused on one animal friend in spirit.
Initial: $260 USD · Follow-up: $225 USD

“I had an incredible session with Joanna shortly after the passing of my soul dog. I had never worked with an animal communicator before and Joanna absolutely blew any expectations I may have had out of the water.
Her emails ahead of time and her website, walking me through what to expect and how to prepare for my session, were so helpful! The moment she connected with my beloved dog, she began telling me so much about him, his and my life together and what he wanted to communicate to me.
Joanna enabled me to find the peace I needed after his passing. It was beyond comforting to know that his soul is at peace, that our deep connection was indeed understood by him as well and that he is still present in my life, watching over me and the rest of the pack.”

What makes these sessions different
These sessions aren't just focused on mediumship. They're designed to create a space where you and your pet can reconnect and tend to the grief of losing your physical connection.
When appropriate, sessions also include energy work for you and your pet, supporting you in honoring the unconditional love you shared and integrating the impact you had on one another during your time together.
“I lost my baby, Belle, unexpectedly at 3 yrs old. I was despondent and reached out to Joanna. She did a reading for me with such detail, and it brought me so much comfort. Later that week, I had a visit from Belle as I was talking to her right before sleep.
I felt her footsteps walk across my bed and her settle against me, as she always did in life.
Joanna is so comforting and compassionate, and I would recommend her services to anyone. I had used her before for some behavioral work, and she really is top-notch.”

Hey, I’m Joanna
Over the past 20 years, I've had the privilege of helping pets who have passed and their people navigate the spiritual aspects of pet loss.
Each conversation has felt like a gift to facilitate. The depth of unconditional love shared and the personal growth that happens over the course of a lifetime together are humbling and beautiful to witness.
I offer this work because I know firsthand how important it is, especially for energy-sensitive empaths, to have a safe, grounded container to reconnect with your pet after they have passed and to tend to the love and grief you share.
And I would love to support you as well.
What these sessions are like
We will start our call by chatting about how you are feeling and your goals for the session.
Then I will spend a little time tuning in with your pet quietly and taking notes on what I hear from them (my process usually takes about 1-2 minutes to get an overall sense of who your pet is and what they want to have the chance to share with you.
Next, I will share everything I have sensed so far, and then we can get to your questions. For each question, I will take just a moment to listen to your pet’s spirit and then share with you what I sense from them.
If there is something you or your pet shares, I will ask if it is okay to do some energy work for you. Consent is a big thing around here, so for every step of the process, I will be asking you if the modalities I’d like to work with are okay with you. Your questions are always welcome.
“I knew I needed some closure after Ralphies passing and Joanna provided just that.
She helped us communicate with Ralphie and learned and healed so much from our conversation with him, that he felt loved and wanted us to see us how he saw us, he finally felt loved with us and could just be himself, a wildfire that no longer needed to burn hot but could still be sassy and his true self.”

FAQ’s
-
Once you request a session, you’ll hear back from me within 3 business days (but most likely sooner). If I can help you with your goals for the session, I’ll send you a link to book and pay for your session.
From there you’ll get an email confirmation for your appointment, with a Zoom link for our meeting. This email will also include tips on how to prepare for your session and tips on asking questions to help you get the most from our time together.
-
I recommended asking open ended questions rather than yes or no questions, as this will give you more detail.
Some common questions are: How they felt about their life with you
What kind of soulful things they learned during their life
What guidance they have for you or your living pets
How they may try to get your attention when they visit you
What their experience is of the afterlife and if there is any support they need
What they feel is next for them in this next chapter of their existence
As you're getting your questions ready, keep in mind that your in-spirit pet may or may not want to talk about certain aspects of their life. That’s okay, and it doesn’t mean our connection with them isn’t strong. Some beings detach pretty quickly from the everyday details of their physical life after passing. If your pet doesn’t want to talk about something, we can adjust our conversation.
-
In these sessions I will be following your and your pet’s lead. The main modality I work with is Shamanism (but without any cultural appropriation).
Every session is unique and some clients may not need any energy work. That is okay! And for those who do, some of the common techniques I work with are: Soul retrieval, psychopomp techniques (helping to guide your pet’s spirit to a safe and loving location in the spirit realm) and the creation of custom healing ceremonies.
-
From the outside, animal communication and pet psychic readings can look pretty similar. A practitioner tunes in to your animal and shares what they’re sensing, seeing, hearing, or feeling from your pet.
But underneath the surface, there are some subtle yet important differences in how each type of practitioner works and what you will receive from each session.
