VOTED BEST CERTIFIED DOG TRAINER - NORTHERN VIRGINIA Magazine
If you’ve found yourself here, it’s not by accident. Your dog led you to me. I believe that the animals who enter our lives are here to teach us, heal with us, and guide us toward something greater. If you’re reading this, then you and your dog are on a journey together—and I am meant to help you.
First and foremost, I’m an animal mom and a human mom, navigating the joyful chaos of raising two kids while sharing my home with a furry, scaly, and sometimes feathered family. With two cats, two dogs, a turtle, and a history of caring for everything from birds to reptiles, my life is a beautiful blend of love, laughter, and, yes… cleaning up dog poop—just like you.
But my work goes beyond just dog training.
I know what it’s like to rescue a dog, thinking love and basic training will be enough—only to realize their struggles run deeper. The leash reactivity, the separation anxiety, the excessive barking—things no amount of "sit" and "stay" will fix. I also know the heartache of watching your dog struggle with medical issues, chronic pain, digestive problems, or anxiety and wondering if there’s more you can do.
And there is—but the answer isn’t just more training or another prescription.
Most dog training programs focus on controlling behavior. I focus on healing the root cause.
As a certified dog trainer with over 15 years of experience, I absolutely teach obedience training—but here’s the truth: obedience isn’t about control—it’s about communication.
When we teach a dog cues like sit, stay, or come, we’re not just teaching commands—we’re creating a shared language that strengthens the relationship between dog and human. Training is a conversation, not a set of rules. It’s about learning to listen to your dog as much as you want them to listen to you.
That’s why I integrate behavioral training with holistic healing methods like Reiki, aromatherapy, and energy work to create lasting transformation for both you and your dog.
But what if your dog doesn’t need training—what if they need healing?
Dogs, like humans, experience physical pain, stress, and chronic conditions that impact their overall well-being. Whether your dog is struggling with arthritis, allergies, digestive issues, mobility challenges, or emotional distress, I offer natural healing solutions to support their body, mind, and spirit.

As an Animal Shaman & Medicine Woman, I guide you and your dog through a transformative journey of healing, balance, and understanding. Whether it’s through my custom aromatherapy blends, Reiki, holistic pain relief, behavioral training, or intuitive coaching, I help you both find calm, trust, and alignment—inside and out.
If you’re here, it’s because you’re meant to be. Your dog brought you to this moment—because they’re ready for healing, and so are you.
Yes, I teach obedience. But I also teach something far more valuable—how to create a deep, intuitive bond with your dog that transforms both of your lives.
