TEAM SUPPORT & COACHING

Compassion Fatigue Coaching

Whatever your role is in the veterinary setting, whether a doctor, nurse, assistant, client service, or administration, we can all experience the emotional & spiritual strain as a result of the work we do helping others.  Compassion fatigue can result when we have experienced vicarious traumatization and burnout from our work.  If left unchecked it can wreak havoc on our physical and emotional health, preventing us from being effective caregivers.  My goal is to bring light to this highly important topic and give you the tools to become your most resilient self, so you can continue to go out there and provide the best patient care.

Pulling from a loaded toolkit including Veterinary Training and Mentoring, Reiki Energy Healing, Kundalini and Forrest Yoga, Breath work, Dream work, and Jungian Depth Psychology, I am confident in guiding you out of the darkness and uncovering your most luminous self.

Find out if working one on one with a Certified Master Jungian Life Coach can help you to develop resiliency against the negative effects of a career in caregiving, so that you can continue to do the good work you set out to do - providing quality patient care.
