Does life have you feeling down? Or perhaps unexpected emotions, anxiety, dreams, and triggers suddenly occur? It’s been difficult just to put one foot in front of the other due to these experiences, let alone feed your family, walk the dog, work, or run errands. It’s one thing when these things happen in the privacy of your own home, but now they’re disrupting you when you’re in public, too. Even more disturbing and frustrating are the nightmares that accompany all these other problems, causing you to feel absolutely depleted. You wish there were someone who could understand what you’re going through and know how to help you.
The one who can help you is closer than you think. Using a combination of service dog training, pet therapy, EMDR, and other modalities, together we will build effective coping strategies that can help you through your emotional distress. Together, we’ll co-create a better life for you, and your dog if you want that too.
Develop greater self-awareness, confidence, and leadership skills while learning to set healthy boundaries and create a calm, supportive environment. Experience how your dog can help you through your moments of PTSD and bring you balance. Call today for your free 30-minute consultation and start making changes for a more fulfilling life.
