Compassionate, science-based support for reactive, anxious and fearful dogs and their guardians.
In-person consultations across Naarm/Melbourne and online Australia-wide.
When a dog is reactive, anxious, fearful, or easily overwhelmed, everyday situations can become difficult to navigate. Progress may feel unclear, and inconsistent advice can make it hard to know where to begin.
These challenges are often shaped by learning history, stress, environment, health, and the individual dog in front of us, which is why understanding what is driving the behaviour is often the first step toward meaningful change.
I help you understand what’s behind your dog’s behaviour, so you can feel more confident about what to do next.
Together, we’ll look at what your dog is communicating, what might be contributing to their behaviour, and what will help them feel safer and more supported.
We’ll build practical strategies that fit into your real life, and adjust them as you and your dog learn and grow.
Every dog and every person is different. We’ll find what works for you and your dog, at a pace that feels manageable and sustainable.
Private coaching sessions provide a personalised training plan for your puppy or dog tailored to your specific needs and lifestyle. These sessions build positive behaviours and strengthen the bond between you and your dog.
Behaviour consultations are for dogs with complex behaviour issues, such as anxiety, reactivity, and aggression. You will receive guidance and support in implementing safe management strategies and appropriate training techniques to address the root causes.
I provide assessment, training, and support for psychiatric assistance dog teams. My approach is collaborative, neuro-affirming, and tailored to the individual needs of both dog and handler.
