Relationships with our animal friends are well known to have significant health benefits. The interaction with gentle, friendly pets lowers blood pressure, improves cardiovascular health, and the act of petting releases endorphins, producing an automatic relaxation response. Animals lift our spirits and decrease depression symptoms, isolation and loneliness, and lead to better mental health outcomes.
Monty is a Ragdoll kitty who is a consistent and peaceful presence in my therapy practice. He has a sweet and gentle disposition and enjoys the quiet company of all who visit. Monty welcomes interaction and affection however he is not demanding of it and will keep to himself if clients prefer not to engage. Please let me know if you have any allergies or other issues and accommodations will be made for your session.
