Come Experience the Healing Power of Animals

“My experience at Pawsitive Healing has been absolutely amazing, I love the fact that you can go and talk about your mental health in a nice, safe environment and with a big, beautiful dog like Panda. Colleen is an amazing person who has been there for me at my absolute worst and I never felt judged. She cares deeply with her heart and being a person that finds it difficult to talk and open up about my struggles in life; I have built a connection with her and I trust her and it feels so much better to have the weight off of my shoulders. Anyone suffering with an addiction or mental health problem please give her a shot, no matter how hard it is, it can truly change your life for the better.”
