Amy has always had a passion for
helping others. Her background includes working in mental health and
education. She has seen the power of pets in helping children and adults
to overcome obstacles and to learn important life lessons. By pairing
her passion for helping others and counseling with animal assisted
activities, she has founded Helping Paws. Children listen, students
maintain the lesson and adults love the interaction with the dogs.
Amy has began traveling to schools in
Tennessee and Georgia with her co-workers, Daryl and Larry. Together,
they are having a wonderful time meeting new friends while reaching and
teaching children.
Amy has her Ed.S in Administration and
Supervision and her Masters Degree in Counseling. She works part time as
an elementary school counselor with Cleveland City Schools and also runs
her Helping Paws business. Amy resides in Cleveland, Tennessee with her
husband Wes and Daryl and Larry.
Amy has been invited to participate in
several conferences and present her program and has received rave
reviews. Educators are always looking for something new and exciting to
catch the attention of the students. Helping Paws is just that.
Contact Amy today. She has several
options available: School visits, after school parent programs, author
visits, training sessions, staff development and in-service
opportunities.
