Ruth Hatten
Animal Wellness Intuitive | Naturopath + Healer
Ancient healing wisdom woven into contemporary care for vibrant animal health and wellbeing.
Ruth’s genuinely changed the way we think and act, right from our first consult.
What sets Ruth apart for me is her unique combination of skills - from the mind of a lawyer, to the soul of a true animal devotee. In practice, this means that while advocating incredibly well researched natural diets, she maintains a realistic perspective on what’s practically achievable for each family - and that's really what's ensured our ongoing commitment to human-grade feeding of our pups.
Itches and weight fluctuations are thankfully a thing of the past for our boys, and in comparison to the costly and ultimately lifespan threatening treatments we'd been using (well-meaningly of course!), our consult fee was inconsequential (and still one of the best value investments we've made).
We've confidently recommended Ruth to numerous other friends and colleagues who've also deeply valued her excellent advice and unique holistic approach. I'd give 6 stars if I could!

Energy Healing for Animals & Their Human Guardians
For animals — and the humans who love them.
Some aspects of healing can’t be reached through the physical body alone.
​
Energetic and emotional support offers a gentle, non-invasive way to support animals through stress, trauma, illness, behavioural changes, life transitions and end-of-life — while also supporting the humans they are deeply connected to.
​
This work honours the reality that animals are sensitive, perceptive beings, and that their wellbeing is closely intertwined with the emotional and nervous system states of those who care for them.
A complementary and standalone form of support
Energetic work can be used alongside nutritional and naturopathic care, or as a meaningful standalone approach.
​
By supporting regulation of the nervous system and encouraging deep relaxation, energy healing creates the conditions in which the body’s own healing processes can function more effectively — physically, emotionally and energetically.
​
Rather than fixing or forcing change, this work supports the body and nervous system to return to balance in its own time.

Responses to energy healing vary. Some animals experience noticeable shifts quickly, while others benefit from ongoing or layered support, particularly where patterns are long-standing or complex.
The human–animal connection
Animals do not experience life in isolation.
​
They are deeply attuned to the emotional states, stress levels and nervous systems of their humans — often holding, reflecting or responding to what is happening within the household.
​
In energetic and emotional support sessions, it is common for both the animal and their human to experience shifts. When the human nervous system softens, the animal’s often follows.
​
This is not about blame — but about recognising the shared field that exists within close human–animal bonds.
Supporting animals and their humans
Ruth offers energy healing sessions for animals alone, as well as sessions that support both the animal and their human together.
​
In combined sessions, both beings receive energetic support simultaneously, allowing shared stress, emotional holding patterns and relational dynamics to soften and rebalance.
​
These sessions can be especially supportive during:
-
Periods of emotional overwhelm
-
Illness or chronic health challenges
-
Behavioural changes with no clear physical cause
-
Anticipatory grief or end-of-life care
About this work
Ruth is an experienced practitioner working with multiple energetic systems, including Reiki, Seichim, Ashati, Alsemia and Pranic. Sessions are guided intuitively, grounded in presence, and tailored to the individual animal and situation.
​
This work is offered with care, respect and deep sensing — always in service of the animal’s wellbeing and the human–animal relationship as a whole.
Ways to work together

​
-
Animal-only energy healing
-
Combined animal + human sessions
