Pasta Welcomes You!

In August 2012 a dog named Pasta saved my life . From that point on, I was determined to let people know that recovery from mental illness, addictions and trauma is possible. Pasta wanted people to know that dogs can help them through that process. Since I personally struggle with mental health issues, I understand the value of a personalized recovery plan. 

Using the skills that I have developed with peer support and challenges that I’ve overcome personally, I will help individuals establish a healthy emotional state whether they are dealing with a life transition or some other type of stressor. My goal is to help people improve their overall attitude and the way they take on challenges. Combining peer support with dog-assisted interventions provides a recovery option for those seeking an innovative approach to mental wellness. 

If you are interested in including a dog or other animal in your recovery plan, Pasta’s Purpose can help you. 

Stay pawsitive!
