Ruby chilling after work engaging young people in East London NHS Foundation Trust (ELFT) Bedford CAMHS. The #AutismIAPT training has made me reflect on how Dog Assisted Psychological Therapy can engage Autistic people in therapy- so much non verbal communication and providing sensory opportunities + smiles!

A while ago I enjoyed joining the wonderful CAMHSTalk podcast discussing my integrating dogs into therapy and how this can facilitate the therapeutic processes across different psychological modals.Episode 10 – Let’s talk therapy dogs.. youtu.be/uRlMAjp69so via YouTube
