Hi, I'm Your Dog's New Best Ally 🐾

I'm a certified dog behaviorist with over 8 years of experience helping dogs and their families build deeper, more trusting relationships. I specialize in fear, anxiety, reactivity, and aggression β€” using evidence-based, force-free methods that respect both dog and human.

My approach isn't about commands and compliance β€” it's about truly understanding your dog's emotional world. When your dog feels safe and understood, everything else follows naturally.

I work from the heart of your home, either in-person or via telehealth, because that's where real behavior change happens.

What Families Are Saying 🐾

Real families, real transformations. These are the moments that remind me why I do what I do.

After just two sessions, our rescue dog Mango stopped lunging at other dogs on walks. I cried happy tears on our first calm walk in two years. She gave us our dog β€” and our sanity β€” back.

I was this close to rehoming my dog. The aggression toward strangers had gotten scary. In 6 weeks, we went from "I can't do this" to having friends over at the house. Truly life-changing work.

The online intake form was so thorough that she already understood our dog before we even met. Our first session felt like talking to a dear friend who also happened to know everything about dogs.

Our puppy Luna was becoming fear-aggressive and we were panicked. The Puppy Foundation program gave us the tools and the confidence to shape her into the gentle, happy girl she is today.

The telehealth option was a game changer for us β€” we live 2 hours away but got the same quality of care. The follow-up written plan was incredibly detailed and easy to follow.

I appreciated that she never judged us. She made us feel like good dog owners who just needed the right support. That kindness made all the difference. We are forever grateful.
