Beth Elsfelder
Beth has felt a deep connection with animals for as long as she can remember. Her exploration into intuitive healing began in 1997, when she took her first Reiki class. She was fortunate to work with Dr. Fisher for several years as a veterinary assistant and Healing Touch for Animals Practitioner, where she continued her training with coursework in Healing Touch for Animals (HTA), Healing Touch, Color Therapy, Aromatherapy, and Craniosacral Therapy for Animals.
She moved to Colorado in 2013 to pursue her dream of living in the Rocky Mountains; just a year later, she founded Spirit Wolf Energetics LLC, to provide intuitive healing to animals and people. In addition to her healing practice, Beth’s passion for wolves led her to become a volunteer/staff member at the Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center (CWWC) for several years.
Beth currently resides in beautiful Durango, CO and is an Usui Holy Fire III Reiki Master/Teacher, Animal Reiki Master/Teacher, Advanced Proficiency Healing Touch for Animals Practitioner, and Pet First-Aid and CPR Instructor. She is also an international bestselling author and a speaker on the largest global stage for women. She offers her time and healing gifts at the La Plata County Humane Society and Spring Creek Horse Rescue. She is also a member of the Reiki Healing Association and the International Association of Reiki Professionals.

Patty Vesalo – In Memory
Patty believes the animal’s spirit will heal itself naturally as we lovingly facilitate with guidance. As the world will do, she turned to her passion of dogs to helping dogs in positive ways. Patty’s first dog Spanky, inspiration for her company CleverPup101 has been behind all of this, she’s sure! Voted least likely to succeed in her puppy class, the two of them needed to learn and love quickly and with fervor to make it together. Whether Patty gets to help an animal or they help her, they grow together toward a better good. Her work focuses on family dog training, integrating dogs and humans together in a happy well-adjusted life together. Patty offers private in-home training and teaches small group classes out of her Schoolhouse in Bath, Ohio. One of her greatest accomplishments is the therapy dogs who have graduated from her program and now share smiles and comfort to people who need it most.
