About Denise Norberg-Johnson

Denise Norberg-Johnson

Denise Norberg-Johnson is an Animal Communicator and Reiki Master, who also works with animals and their people as a Certified LifeLine Practitioner.

As a former biology teacher, construction contractor, business trainer and financial writer, she has spent her life engaged in a continuous learning process. Denise's formal education includes an M.B.A., a Masters degree in Teaching, a B.A. in Biological Science, and an A.A. in Architectural Interior Design.

As an award winning speaker and author, she has been interviewed on television radio, and in print. She has written the book Defyning Moments – Lessons from an Ordinary Life, and dozens of articles, columns, and presentations for business and general interest publications.

Her blog, Animals Know! can be found on the Chicago Now blogging community site (www.ChicagoNow.com/animals-know), and she anticipates the publication of her book Animals Know! – What animals teach us about life, love, joy, forgiveness, and death, in early 2014.

When she is not reading voraciously, dancing as if no one is watching, or attempting to play her junior high school violin recital pieces, she amuses herself by annoying her husband and best friend Dave and their group of rescued cats, who provide an evolving laboratory for testing her newest theories and techniques.

For The Skeptics

A balance between open-minded acceptance and skepticism is healthy and appropriate, and I welcome questions about the services and products available through my website. One of the most common concerns prospective clients have is how to evaluate the potential benefits they will receive in exchange for their investment of time and money.

Energy work has existed for thousands of years, but has not yet been explained in scientific terminology. Traditional experimental frameworks and protocols required to prove a hypothesis within the scientific community have not been effectively used to demonstrate how animal communication works, or to quantify the effects of systems such as The LifeLine Technique®.
