Meet my therapy dog in training!
I’m thrilled to introduce the newest (and furriest) member of Inner Peace Counseling, PLC: Kaia (pronounced “Kye-a”), a 9-month-old rescue who’s working toward her therapy dog certification. Animal-Assisted Interventions can offer incredible benefits:
- Helping clients feel safe and understood
- Offering an opportunity to better regulate the nervous system
- Opening doors in the therapeutic process
- Supporting emotional awareness and self-care skills
Kaia is currently enjoying being in her forever home (with me) and has been doing a lot of training to be ready for this new venture. Soon she will start offering her gentle, intelligent presence in the office.
Participation is completely voluntary – both for clients AND for Kaia.
Stay tuned to see more of this sweet girl.
