Marji has helped turn around the lives of our animal sanctuary residents for the better. We first contacted her about Gilligan, a hen who was diagnosed with a tumor which was impacting her digestion. The vet wanted to put her down, but instead, we asked if Marji could help--and lo and behold, a near miracle occurred. A couple weeks into offering Gilligan essential oils, her crop (like a stomach) started to empty, meaning either the tumor was shrinking or her digestion was being supported. Then, one day, she pooped out a ton of worms. She just kept getting better and better.
Marji has helped with countless of our sanctuary residents' demeanors, as well, like naughty goats, shy donkeys, an anxious dog, and an anti-social pig named Pearl. We have noticed subtle shifts in them. It's been really fun working with the oils and letting the animals choose their healing.
Highly recommend Marji!!
Marji came to us after I had been searching for someone that had experience in energetic and herbal healing modalities for animals.
My cat, Simply Red was diagnosed with Squamous Cell Carcinoma, mouth cancer and the prognosis did not look good. My main goal was for him to have the least amount of pain possible, and a good quality of life for however long that meant.
Marji came to us in San Francisco and worked with him through herbal oils and reiki. I was amazed how he responded to her, and there was some big energetic shifts happening just in that first session.
Simply had lost his friend just last October and so in the session it became clear that he was still grieving him.
Marji gave us a range of essences to work with that aimed to address everything from his physical to his emotional ailments. He was perked up and had great energy after both sessions.
All in all, we will continue with the herbal essences as he is responding so well to them, she also have us some ways to deal with his mouth sores, resulting in way less bleeding and swelling and even decrease of size in tumor - which is miraculous in itself.
We are on the journey still, but regardless what happens, I know that the work Marji did with us will have a huge impact. She really did heal both me and Simply in ways I never could have expected. I believe animals have their own agenda, and timeline when they want to pass over, but this gives him some space to choose without being in pain and having a better quality of life.
Thank you Marji - We are very grateful you are in our lives!
Marji was so incredible with our very anxious pittie. After two sessions, we saw a marked difference in his behavior - he was calmer, more receptive to new things, and would self regulate by putting himself in his crate to calm himself instead of barking or shaking as he previously did. I would highly recommend working with Marji if your pet needs support with anxiety.
We came to Marji because our little chihuahua Duri had some serious fear and confidence issues due to past trauma from a previous home. We were at a loss, as we had tried other methods which did not work. Duri is only 6lbs but a bite from a chihuahua is no joke! We were having a hard time connecting with him and were feeling so hopeless! From the moment we spoke with Marji on the phone, Duri began to improve. He seemed to feel more safe as we changed our language and energy around him. When we started in-person therapy with Marji, it was so powerful and transformative, for Duri and for us too. Duri is so much calmer and way more confident. He communicates with us now and we have not had any bites since we began working with Marji. Duri also loves the new food that he is on and seems to feel better not only emotionally but physically. We are really grateful to Marji, and we know Duri is too!
It’s a blessing to be working with Marji, she is incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate when it comes to helping my senior min pin with behavior issues. Watching him close his eyes, lower his head and get into deep relaxation during her session was amazing to me. I appreciate her openness and availability to talk me through the process with Jimmy. It will definitely be a journey but one I’m so thankful to have Marji by our side.

We are so thankful we found Marji. Bella is the sweetest girl ever but she is so anxious outside, afraid of loud noises, and has difficulty letting people close to her. Thank goodness with her beautiful oils she has been able to relax more when outside and people can come closer to her without her freaking out. She also had lots of gut issues and with the help of Marji I no longer have had to start her on bland diets. Marji is just so sweet, understanding, and patient with Bella. To today we are still doing oils and she LOVES it especially her violet leaf. Marji is always so helpful and she is there for you at all times.

I contacted Marji to help us with our little three year old rescue, Piper. Piper had been experiencing anxiety over the past year that we referred to as "Covid Anxiety". She became very territorial because we were always around and she would bark at anyone that would come to the door, mask or no mask. Even people she knew, she would bark. So of course, the first time Marji came, there was barking, a lot of it. Piper was upset, I was mortified and Marji was apprehensive. After deciding to regroup and try another approach, Marji decided to come back. another day. We greeted her on the side walk and took a small walk down the street. Marji patiently worked with Piper to gain her trust and in no time, Piper was responding well to the oils and the two of them were playing together like they were best buds. Marji really took them time to research options that would work for our dog. She made many suggestions and kept in constant contact with us to monitor Piper's progress. We are so thankful to her and would recommend her to anyone experiencing issues with their pups during this crazy time.
I definitely recommend Marji! My dog Violet has been having complications with digestive issues, ear infections, and a few others. Violet and I started working with Marji recently, she worked with Violet using plant oils and powders. Violet's not usually comfortable with new people but she was very willing and engaged with Marji and the process. Since meeting Marji, Violet and I have continued working with the oils as Marji showed us. Violet has had more energy, less anxiety, I haven't seen her scratching her ears, and her digestion has been healthier. I'm feeling grateful for Marji and excited as life becomes more active and comfortable for Violet.

We have 4 rescue dogs. Marji came to work with our elder dog Homer who has dementia problems, arthritis, hard time walking eating and getting comfortable. He is always walking around and going in circles very restless. Since our first session with Marji Homer has been able to sleep been mostly out of pain and has been eating more. He’s not going in circles and is finding himself able to become relaxed and settled which is wonderful for us to see . No one has been able to come over to the house without all the dogs getting very excited and one of our dogs TJ always barking. When Marji came the first time TJ didn’t even bark which was the first time since we’ve had her. For the second session all the animals were sitting in the living room quietly hanging out while she worked with Homer our older dog. That has never happened! I highly recommend Marji to help you with your animals. She has also helped my daughter and I.
Mia is a 7 year old quarter horse I am currently fostering. She has fear of physical contact. I also carry a childhood trauma associated with horses, a trust issue that has never been addressed. I had no idea where to start, until I met Marji. She recommended working with Rose Essential oil. This has been our routine of several days now: I step inside Mia's pan (which I was too nervous to do before), she comes near me and we smell the oil for a while, sighing and releasing tension together. An incredibly beautiful experience! Comforting, soothing and intimate. I now have more confidence in this healing journey we're on, we are definitely moving forward! Thank you Marji for sharing your wisdom with me!
Marji has a magical touch with animals. She was able to calm my completely neurotic poodle to a point at which she was lying on her back with feet in the air which is unheard of. Marji cares deeply for the animals she works with and is delightful to deal with. I recommend her highly for any emotional or behavioral problem you may be having with your animals.
I highly recommend Marji!
My fur-baby Riley and I have been together for nearly 5 wonderful years. I adopted Riley from the ASPCA in Boston and he had been severely abused to the point where he needed reconstructive surgery on his leg. Understandably he had a lot of trauma to work through.
Riley and I had been through several trainers and it was not until we met Marji that Riley showed calm and steady progress and his anxiety actually improved.
Marji is extremely kind, professional and seeks to understand where you are trying to get to.
I am so grateful to Marji, her work and her understanding!

Marji helped bring comfort to my senior dog Travis in his last year of his life. He struggled with mobility problems and joint pain. The energy work and oils brought him great relief. She also worked with my goat Rudy to resolve a chronic ear condition. The vet had treated it unsuccessfully in the past so we opted for a different approach. Rudy selected oils to inhale and apply topically. What was really fun was how all the other goats came around to participate and ended up selecting immune boosting oils that appealed to them!

Our family has a beautiful Golden Retriever named Nora. She tended toward being a bit hyper running back and forth and pulling on the leash. She was easily distracted and it was difficult to get her attention. Marji had a session with Nora using her energy healing and she calmed right down. It was a miracle. We still talk about it to this day.
We prefer to use natural products for our dogs whenever possible and Marji has so much knowledge about what herbs and essential oils are truly effective, we know we are in good hands. She loves and understands animals. Marji is truly a dog whisperer.”

About a year ago, our 11 year-old adopted Maltipoo, Pumpkin, suddenly began to shiver and pant whenever we got into the car and would continue for the entire ride (even 5 minutes to 5 hours!). We have tried all sorts of calming collars, sitting in the back with her, etc. to no avail. Then Marji spent more than an hour working with her, offering her various essential oils, etc and doing Reiki on her. Afterwards, we got into the car with Marji and Pumpkin in the back seat and went for a short drive. Pumpkin was relaxed and exhibited no fear or anxiety symptoms! It was absolutely amazing! It has been almost 6 months and Pumpkin is still relaxed in the car.
We rescued a feral cat recently who was really fearful of humans and hid all the time. Shortly after we adopted her, she was severely attacked by an animal. We hired Marji for reiki healing
sessions because we knew she was a very powerful healer and also worked with animals. After Lucy’s first session with Marji she started coming out of her shell. We had her about a year and this was the first time we ever heard her purring!
After her second session, Lucy was sitting on our lap and sleeping in our bed. It was really amazing and made us so happier to see her be so much more relaxed!! We highly recommend Marji and are so grateful for her help!!
Marji has a wonderful healing way with animals. I was referred to her by a friend, because my dog Tibby was unable to tolerate driving in the car. Something that she used to enjoy. She would hyperventilate and shake to the point that I thought she might die. Marji sat with her for an hour; treating her with various healing techniques including essential oils. After the treatment, I was able to take Tibby for a 90-mile round-trip in the car without the previous symptoms.
After fleeing the 2017 wildfires with our dog Bubbles, it became clear that Bubbles was a bit stressed. We moved around a lot and was staying in several different places. I’m sure Bubbles was feeling our stress as well. Marji was able to calm him down with essential oils and reiki. It really helped him through the trauma and loss of everything he was familiar with. Bubbles really trusted Marji who helped tremendously in his recovery.

I will never give up on good, traditional vet care, but it seems that sometimes a less traditional approach is needed. One of my cats was tested for over a year to find what was causing him to throw up regularly. Nothing showed up. My other cat then started having “inappropriate bathroom habits” in the house. She was diagnosed with crystals in her pee, caused by stress. I followed the vet’s plan to de-stress her but that only helped a little. Getting anxious myself, I asked Marji Pearson, a human and animal Reiki therapist I’d met, to give treatments to them both. Intermittently over the course of a couple of months, she did Reiki on them (and sometimes me too) and made other suggestions for non-invasive ways to help the situation. I am delighted to say that both cats are happy and healthy – as am I. Apparently Reiki (and an amazing connection to animals by Marji) helps cats de-stress and to heal. I highly recommend Marji - as does my husband, who is the “this would only happen in Marin” type person. And my cats totally love her!

Marji has been caring for our senior mutt Bob for several years both as petsitter and healer. She has a miraculous presence: Bob, normally a shy, nervous guy, relaxes completely in her presence. Marji has offered Bob some pharmacognosy sessions, and the practice clearly answered a need, because we watched our meat-loving pup guzzling chlorella and inhaling deep breaths of essential oils. Afterwards he seemed both more spry and more relaxed: a happy dog.
We can’t recommend Marji and her magic highly enough.
Marji had some sessions using her reiki healing with my 13 year old brittany, Trixie. While I was a bit skeptical, I did notice an increase in Trixie's energy level. She also became more engaged with the younger two dogs in the house and would often take the lead in our daily walks on Mt. Tam. I would certainly recommend Marji, she is very loving and empathetic with animals and has a soothing, healing touch.
Marji Pearson has been volunteering with some of our rescue horse’s at Sadie’s Haven. In particular she has been working with Ariel who had come to us badly abused and a total distrust and fear of humans. She has been out in the field with Ariel for hours each week using her energy healing including Trust Technique and aromatherapy and the progress the staff and I have seen in Ariel is just wonderful. Other volunteers are able to pet her and groom her which was impossible before Marji started working with Ariel and she has become more trusting and less fearful. She has regained confidence in herself and is able to just be a horse and part of the herd. We are delighted. I would highly recommend Marji for her gifts, integrity, love and care of your horses.
A year ago, I rescued a 4 year-old Female Golden Retriever from Sacramento. She (Portia) came with anxiety issues and had not been socialized. I believe she may have been abused . I figured brining her into a loving home would resolve her problems. After months of loving her, being very gentle with her and working with her to overcome her fears, I realized that her fears were deeply ingrained in her. I was talking to a friend about my frustrations and she recommended Marji Pearson, who worked with all types of animals by using holistic healing, oils, herbs, nutrients and Reiki healing I made an appointment with Marji to come to the house and meet Portia. The first visit was 2 1/2 hours. Marji sat with Portia and together we went through the various oils and nutrients. Some Portia liked and some she just turned her head away. Portia showed the most interest in the anxiety oils. I continued to use the oils with Portia for the next 2 weeks. Marji came back for a follow-up visit and we reviewed the oils we were using and tried some different ones. Marji made a few adjustments and left me with what Portia and I needed to continue with the therapy.
After about 6 weeks, I noticed Portia is not as anxious and is friendlier when people come to the house and around other animals. This will continue to be an ongoing process with her and will take time.
I found Marji to be very thorough explaining everything to me and in assessment of Portia. Her work and love of animals and wanting to help and heal them is very apparent. I found each session with Marji to be very interested and I support this type of holistic healing.
“Marji is extraordinary. I learned about her when one of my dogs, Gordie (was Ketchum) was lost in the woods for 5 weeks. After he was found, Marji came and did Reiki for him to help him get over his PTSD. Now, when she walks into my house, my dogs lie down and get ready for her calming energy healing. Not only does Marji do Reiki for my anxious dog, who is less anxious now, but she includes me in her healing session. Marji also introduced me to The Trust Technique, which has been instrumental in helping me help Gordie, a former 5 year kennel dog, to adapt to his new suburban environment.”
We rescued a beautiful mini horse. We named Chloe. Unfortunately she was deeply neglected and near death. She wasn’t trusting of anyone and it was hard to go near her as she would nip at you. Marji Pearson came and worked with Chloe using her holistic healing (or using the trust technique), oils and other healing modalities and was really able to make a gigantic difference with Chloe. All of us at the ranch noticed the changes. Chloe is now a happy horse and she works with many of the children at our non profit. They all love her and Chloe has found her purpose. I highly recommend Marji.
