Who We Are

Donna M. Starita graduated from Rutgers University in 1975 and the Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1979. After several years of conventional practice, enlightened clients and her family's own health challenges led her into the exploration of alternative healing techniques and an awareness of holistic medicine. Expanding that concept as it applies to animals, and later, human healing led her into the study of bio-energetic medicine.

Her practice in Damascus, Oregon, A Place for Healing, provides in-clinic and phone consultation services for animals and people.

Dr. Starita's areas of expertise include nutrition, homeopathy, radionics, herbal and glandular therapies, gem and flower essences, bodywork, emotional release therapy, color, sounds and other forms of vibrational healing. At this time we are not offering more conventional veterinary diagnostics and services.

Donna is a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Oregon Veterinary Medical Association and the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association. She is past-president of the International Alliance for Animal Therapy and Healing, and has taught for the Upledger Institute and Dialogues in Contemporary Rehabilitation. She has authored numerous articles on natural healing and teaches classes on natural medicine for animals and people nationwide.

What We Do

A Place For Healing is a center for alternative and energy medicine for animals and people. Consultations are available by phone or in person. At the time of the appointment, the client or patients symptoms or needs are addressed by gathering data concerning the patients history and lifestyle, as well as current lab and test results. A detailed energy analysis of the animal or person's field is performed (Living Systems Evaluation™); this provides Dr. Starita with information identifying the origin of the challenge, be it physical, etheric, emotional, mental or spiritual, as well as direction from the patients own higher consciousness as to which healing modalities will provide the most effective cure.

After the treatment program has been identified, the recommended supplements or program may be shipped directly from our office, procured locally by the client, or transmitted directly as a frequency through a technique called radionics.
