In this unique webinar, you got an insight into the unique ways some practitioners are working with their Companion Animals to bring further benefits to their clients.

Perhaps you have heard of “Animal Assisted Therapy” but you’re not sure how working with an animal might work for you or your clients?

Dip your toe in the water and learn about some of the theory behind the benefits of interacting with animals, how you might bring AAT into your Counselling practice, why it might benefit your clients, and how you can further your learning.

This is a unique way of working that is growing in popularity and Kathryn runs, through her social enterprise, HumAnima CIC, the only BACP CPD endorsed course specifically covering Animal Assisted Therapy within Counselling. You also got to “meet” Flossie, Kathryn’s Canine Co-Therapist!

Course Content

Presenter

Kathryn Kimbley

I am HumAnima CIC‘s Director and Counsellor. I graduated with a Masters in Counselling Psychology from Keele University in Staffordshire. I have a longstanding interest in psychology, mental health well-being, nature, and eco-psychology.

I set up HumAnima CIC after a lifelong passion with the human-animal bond and having grown up in a very deprived West Midlands City – Wolverhampton. I felt that something more needed to be done to benefit the community but in a different way – a way that everyone could connect to and that could unite people in their struggles. I believe that everyone at some point in their lives has interacted with an animal and it is this interaction that connects us all.

Having experienced clinical depression myself a decade ago, I understand some of the darker struggles that many of us faced when lost in the mire of poor mental health. I am dedicated to supporting and encouraging others’ personal development and growth, and helping others to overcome their personal challenges.

I work with my furry Canine Companion and Co-Therapist, Flossie, an 8-year-old English Cocker Spaniel. Flossie loves nothing more than chasing balls, squirrels, and woodland runs!
