Book Initial Session


​I am so pleased that you have made the decision to dive deeper into reaching a calmer experience with your dog.

The Initial Session is designed to journey further into the challenges you are experiencing with your dog’s behavior, and to start inviting some simple practices to help shift your mindset and experience into one of greater calm and coherence.

It is my honour to be a part of this leg of your journey!

Please find the details below. 

YOUR INTIAL SESSION INCLUDES: 
 
·         Pre-session Intake Form
·         30 minutes of my time for document review
·         Minimum 90 min session at your home or online
·         Follow-up email reviewing highlights of our session and suggested next steps and                          strategies

SESSION SCHEDULE:
 
Once your inquiry is received, I will email you back to firm up a session time together.
After confirmation, you will receive an Intake Form, an Invoice, and further instructions (ie. Zoom link).​
 
SESSION PREPARATION:
  • Please e-mail me your completed Intake Form at least 24 hours prior to our session and a photo of your dog
  • Please complete Invoice payment at least 48 hours before scheduled session
  • Please send me your address with any specific instructions (ie. parking), and your phone number if your session is in-person
  • You will receive an email the day before our scheduled session as a reminder
  • Please give at least 48 hours notice to reschedule
 
THE IN-PERSON SESSION:
  • Please answer the door as you normally would if a surprise visitor rang your doorbell. It is ideal  you carry on as usual with any practice you would do when a guest arrives, which will give me a richer understanding in my observation process.
  • Dogs vary in personality, and I often do not engage much at first so I can observe, gather information, and get a deeper sense of your dynamic. Once your dog is more settled, the opportunity to engage will present itself.
  • I will leave you with some practices and exercises that will help to start shifting the behavior
  • Our session will be a minimum of 90 minutes, but often lasts longer to ensure all concerns are addressed and we feel complete in our time together.

THE ONLINE SESSION:
  • Once the booking process is complete, you will receive a Zoom link for our session, with a reminder 24 hours before.  Sessions may also be conducted via Skype, Facetime or Messenger if preferred
  • Simply click on the Zoom link at our scheduled time. If using one of the other aforementioned platforms, I will contact you at our scheduled time
