How did you hone your craft?
I'm mom to a daughter with a birth defect, Autism and ADHD. Understanding on-verbal communication is important in my family and it has helped me to understand my patients and my clients on a whole different level. Helping my daughter through her challenges has helped me to hone all my veterinary skills. It made me more intuitive as a practitioner and more creative in the work that I do today.
What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?
Learn to read and understand non-verbal communication and the body language of your pet. Anxious pets are not the same as aggressive animals and aggression does not always imply that the animal is "bad". Safe handling of patients is important for everyone; pet, pet parent and professional.
What is one thing you want pet parents to know about you? It can be whatev-fur you'd like!
I meet my patients and clients where they are in terms of acceptance of the work we are doing. We respect boundaries and try to work slowly to overcome fears and resistance to treatment. Each session is a fresh start and we try to build upon what we did or learned in the last session.
