I believe that animals are sentient beings with thoughts and feelings, deserving a voice in what happens to them. This belief is support by growing scientific research into animal awareness, learning and emotional lives.
My work with animals, whether training or behaviour consulting is guided by this core principle. I use positive reinforcement and the least intrusive, force-free methods, always prioritising the animal’s emotional well-being and communication.
I’m dedicated to supporting individuals caring for animals with behavioural problems or training challenges, as well as those committed to maximising their animal friend’s well-being. Whether you’re a pet guardian, a veterinary or allied health professional, an animal trainer or otherwise involved with animal care, I’m here to help.
I bring a wealth of knowledge and practical experience to every consultation and training session. My specialisations include addressing fear, stress, and anxiety, reactivity and aggression, hyperactivity, impulsivity, puppy behaviour, and low-stress handling techniques. My approach is grounded in positive reinforcement and the latest scientific understanding of animal behaviour.
