I have known Shari Sternberger for over 4 years. Shari has treated me energetically on many occasions for various mind/body/spirit problems. What makes Shari’s healings so unique is that she blends many different energetic healing modalities together including Healing Touch, vibrational sound and light. Her multi-faceted approach gives her a vast number of “tools in her toolkit” that allow her to address different problems with the appropriate tool(s).
When I first met Shari, I had been receiving acupuncture treatments for over 12 years and had not only received Reike treatments for 2 years, but I myself was a Reike master. At that time I suffered from chronic back and neck pain, high levels of stress, and some fear issues. Since our pets feel and reflect our emotions, it is not surprising that my dog, Ginger, displayed fear issues as well. In fact, Ginger was starting to emotionally “shut down” as a way to deal with her fear. She was becoming unresponsive and lethargic. As a professional dog trainer, I began using various training exercises to help restore Ginger’s self-confidence. These exercises were starting to work. However, Ginger needed an energy boost to complement the exercises and “jump start” her growing self-confidence.
Shari suggested that she treat Ginger and me at the same time. This was the first time any energy worker had ever suggested this. I thought that this was a brilliant idea since Ginger was reflecting my emotional state. We needed to energetically address our fear issues at the same time. What a novel approach! Ginger & I arrived for our treatment in Shari’s pet-friendly facility. It was comfortable and relaxing for both of us. Ginger and I both sat on her treatment table. Shari’s demeanor with Ginger was quiet, gentle, and calming. Her treatment was totally non-intrusive. Ginger thoroughly enjoyed the treatment. My treatment followed immediately after Ginger’s and was relaxing and comfortable. Shari has a great bedside manner with people and dogs.
Two days after the treatment, I noticed a subtle change in Ginger’s behavior. As days passed, I noticed Ginger becoming more relaxed and behaving with increasing confidence. As Ginger’s self-confidence grew, I noticed that some of my fear issues began to fade. It has been several months since this treatment. Ginger is no longer fearful. She no longer flips onto her back when another dog approaches, she greets them on all fours with a confidence that I did not know she was capable of. Shari’s treatment provided Ginger and me with the energy boost we needed to achieve success in overcoming Ginger’s fear issues.

Shari brings many spiritual healing gifts and abilities to all those that she touches. She makes a soul and heart connection to her clients, whether two legged or four, and her warmth and compassion radiate through each and everyone. I am a 53 year old registered nurse who had the good fortune to meet Shari in a Healing Touch class, and since that time have been the fortunate recipient of the talents she has to offer.
She has mastered many techniques and therapies (Healing Touch, Acutonics, Flower Essence, Color and light, to name a few) and she blends and incorporates select therapeutic elements based on the needs of her clients.
Shari meets you at your own level with her unique energy and unique toolbox. Through dialog with you, she develops synergistic approaches to address your goals, so your session is unique too.
Shari’s talents have struck accord with both the felines and humans in my family. She has worked with us in both individual and group sessions, for both general and specific issues, and in single and multiple sessions for a particular issue. We have all felt improvements in our physical, emotional, and spiritual lives as Shari has helped us navigate joint and nerve challenges, chemical toxicity, and grief. We never imagined that attending her presentation at Bark! would be the prelude to such a harmonious means of achieving results that are sound, touching, and enlightening.
To the extent that you want to explore, Shari applies and shares her knowledge and her tools. As she formulates, provides, and assesses each session with you, Shari always gives her energy unconditionally.
Wynfred and I want to thank you for all the healing you have brought into our lives. There is no doubt that our lives have changed in a positive way since our sessions with you. At our last visit you could see how tense Wynfred was when we arrived. He had spent most of the car trip sitting up, looking out the window and panting. He had not been able to settle at all. How different things were on the return trip! He was then calm, centered and relaxed. He lay peacefully, with his head on my lap or on a pillow. And, he has continued in this calm presence through today. He also seems to have entered into a deeper relationship with our new cat, Saunders. We will be looking forward to another visit, and I expect that Saunders may be coming with us.
I am 36 years old and am diagnosed with Crohn's disease. I recently had a severe attack and was in and out of the hospital for a couple of months. I lost 30 pounds, was pretty much bed-ridden, and could barely even walk to the end of my driveway without having to sit down. In conjunction with conventional medicine and bio-feedback, I began doing some energy work with Shari. I admittedly was initially a skeptic of the energy techniques since I am very science-oriented and tend to be a disbeliever of what I perceive to be "non-tangible". What I learned while working together is that these are very tangible techniques that are very valuable for physical and spiritual healing. After 2 weeks I noticed a change for the better. After 2 more weeks of energy work I began feeling remarkably better. My weight was returning, my pains had decreased, and my energy and appetite was better.
With Shari, I learned a lot about relaxation and using ones energy for healing. Shari was very patient with my condition and took the necessary time and steps to ensure that I was recovering from my flare-up. I would recommend Shari to anyone who not only wants to heal an illness, but wants to enlighten their own minds as to the other benefits of energy work as well. Thanks for all of your help Shari!
I am a woman of 76 years who has been diagnosed with osteoarthritis and hypertension. After each of five sessions with Shari I have experienced less pain, more flexibility and more energy. Though I continue my medication for hypertension, I find that my blood pressure is lowering. I cannot begin to describe the joy I feel as I go about my day, able to perform the activities as I did years ago! And I am able to do all of this without the side effects of drugs!! Thank you Shari!
