FAQ
Q. How do I attend the session and are they in person?
A. All of my sessions are done over video on Zoom. You'll receive a link to join your session in the confirmation email as soon as you book. I don't do in person sessions as I don't feel I get any better results than over video and I can keep my prices more affordable and help more people across the country this way.
​
Q. What do I need to do before my session?
A. All I need from you is to send me a photo of the animals to info@shannaparker.com. It's also a great idea to be putting thought into and making a list of questions or topics you'd like to be sure we cover in our session.
​
Q. Can I do a combined session with both live and passed animals?
A. Yes!! We can use the time during your session in whatever way you'd like with multiple animals, alive or in spirit.
​
Q. How soon after my animal has passed can I book a session?
A. There's no set time frame that is best. I have had good success as soon as a few days after passing and I have had some that needed several weeks. Which time frame is best is usually determined by you, the human, since if you are processing profound grief or guilt, it can hinder the connection as you may not be ready to hear the things the animal has to tell you. I suggest waiting until you feel you are ready to receive anything and everything that may come from the animal. If you have doubts, usually 2-3 weeks after the animal has passed is a safe time to book.
​​
Q. How much time do I need to book?
A. A 30 minute session is typically enough to do an in depth reading with one animal but you can also do a very quick wellness check in with two animals in 30 minutes. If you're dealing with complicated issues or want to go very in depth, you may want to book up to an hour for one pet. If you have questions about how much time to schedule, you can book a free 15 minute consultation to figure out exactly how much time you would need to achieve your goals for the session.
​​
Q. In what ways do animals send messages?
A. I typically get messages in the form of pictures, emotions, and physical sensations. I do also often hear words or phrases but it's usually pictures and emotions. Because of this, I will often need you as the owner to help me decipher what the messages mean since I don't know the pet. For example, I once asked a dog what his favorite thing to do was and all I saw was bubbles. That didn't mean anything to me, but the owner knew the dog was referring to his bubble machine as he loved chasing the bubbles!
​
Q. Can my partner or other friend/loved one be present for the session or can it be recorded?
A. Yes and yes!
​
Q. Are there times the animals don't want to connect or you can't receive messages?
A. Yep! It's not common but there have been a few times I've struggled to help someone in the way I would like to. It could be the animal's higher self doesn't want to participate, it could be I'm not the right one to deliver the messages the animal wants you to receive, or, it could even be that it's not the right time for you to receive them. If this happens, I simply refund your payment and you can try again with someone else or at a later date.
​
​Q. What kinds of animals can be communicated with?
A. Any animals that belong to you or you have a relationship with. I have had great success with dogs, cats, horses, pigs, birds, exotics, and even reptiles!
