About Mona

Mona J. Shaw, CMRM, CH, CNHP

Mona Shaw, Owner, Animal Reiki Alliance, is an Animal Reiki Practitioner and Teacher, Certified Medical Reiki Master, Usui Practitioner and Teacher, Certified Hypnotist and Animal Communicator. She became  a Certified Naturopathic Practitioner in 2020. Mona lives on a farm in South Central Pennsylvania and uses her reiki daily on both farm animals and wildlife. She has witnessed first hand how Reiki can help an aging and ill dog, reduce animal aggression and stress, and assist other animals (and their humans) in crossing the rainbow bridge. 

Mona’s belief in naturopathic practices began when she worked with a physician in 2003, curing herself of Fibromyalgia with the use of supplements, massage and reiki. She then began her Reiki journey in 2004 when she received her Reiki I and II certificates under Sensei Rev. Rebecca Nagy. She continued that journey in 2019 earning her master and teacher certifications with Teri Martell and her Certified Medical Reiki Master (CMRM) certificate in 2020 with Raven Keys, Raven Keyes Medical Reiki International. 

She believes that you find exactly what you are meant to find with Reiki and in 2019, she discovered Kathleen Lester and the Animal Reiki Alliance. Mona resonated with the Usui Reiki Ryoho teachings from Kathleen Lester and incorporates them into all of her trainings. 

Mona practices Reiki and Animal Communication full-time, whether in her office, via distance sessions, or on her farm.  Her distance practice is said to be “strong enough to heal a home.” 

She made a life long study of naturopathic modalities and decided to put those studies to use by attending school and earning her Certified Natural Health Professional designation. She believes everyone can heal their Mind, Body, Mental and Spiritual systems given the proper tools and support through their journey.
