You're not alone — and neither is your dog.
I work with dogs who find life hard. Whether your dog is reactive, anxious, fearful, or showing behaviours like resource guarding or separation-related distress, I’m here to help.
Using a kind, science-led approach, I focus on uncovering the why behind your dog’s behaviour, not just stopping it on the surface. Together, we’ll support your dog in building confidence and coping skills, while giving you the tools, clarity and calm to move forward.
Because real progress comes from understanding — not punishment.
The Consultation Process
Discovery Call
We’ll start with a free 15–20 minute discovery call. This is a chance for us to chat about your dog’s challenges, what you’d like to achieve, and how I work. You can ask me any questions, and we’ll make sure I’m the right person to help before committing to the next step.
Veterinary Referral
Your dog’s health is always my first priority. Sometimes behaviour changes can be linked to medical issues, so you may be asked to arrange a veterinary referral or give permission for me to speak with your vet. This helps us be sure we’re working with the full picture.
Information Gathering
Alongside the vet referral, you’ll complete a detailed questionnaire about your dog and their behaviour. Once I’ve received and reviewed both, we’ll book your first consultation.
The First Consultation
Your first consultation is designed around your dog's comfort and needs. We can meet at your home or another suitable location, and for anxious dogs, we may use a separate room or even switch to a remote video call to minimise stress. The 1.5-2 hour session focuses on understanding your dog's behaviour, discussing your concerns, and creating a tailored plan. This flexible approach ensures we get an accurate picture of your dog's natural behaviour, leading to more effective results.
The Report
After our session, I’ll send you a clear, written report that summarises my assessment and gives you step-by-step recommendations. It will include management strategies, training ideas, and reminders of what we covered so you always have something to refer back to.
Progress Review
About 2 to 4 weeks later, we’ll meet again, either in person or remotely depending on your package, for around an hour. We’ll review how things are going, celebrate progress, and make any adjustments needed to keep things moving forward.
Ongoing Support
No matter which package you choose, you’ll have direct access to me for guidance throughout your programme. I’ll check in with you, track progress, and be here to answer questions or provide reassurance whenever you need it.
Final Check-in
When your support period comes to an end, we’ll have a final follow-up to go over your progress, address any remaining challenges, and make sure you feel confident about the road ahead.

Expert Help for Dogs with Behavioural Challenges
You're not failing — your dog just needs the right kind of support
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, frustrated or isolated because of your dog’s behaviour, you’re not alone. Living with a dog who reacts, growls, barks or panics can feel exhausting and confusing. It’s even harder when well-meaning advice only adds to the stress.
You want to help your dog feel safe and settled, but you also need clarity, guidance and support you can trust.
That’s where I come in.
I’ll help you understand what’s really going on beneath the behaviour. We’ll look at the emotions, triggers and unmet needs driving it, then work together to create lasting change using kind, science-based techniques that make sense for your dog.
You’ll never be judged here. Just supported, listened to and guided every step of the way.
I'm an award-winning dog behaviourist with a PhD in Animal Behaviour, as well as a qualified trainer. I also have personal experience of living with a reactive, anxious and sometimes aggressive dog, so I genuinely understand how challenging it can be.
Together, we’ll make things easier. For both of you.
