Tanja is a professional dog trainer, certified by the Dog Training College. She specialises in supporting dogs with behavioural issues, often driven by pain. Tanja uses aromatherapy and Tellington TTouch to provide a holistic approach to helping dogs overcome their issues and improve the quality of their lives and that of their owners.

Tanja started her journey with aromatherapy over 25 years ago when she wanted a natural, but pain free birthing experience. Having grown up in Zimbabwe, Tanja was aware of the use of plants in traditional medicine practiced by so called ‘witch doctors’ and knew that there must be more truth than myth about the remedies used. So Tanja used essential oils and plants for labour management and post-natal issues like mastitis and post-natal depression. Having seen the results first hand, she became hooked on using oils wherever possible.

Tanja has been privileged to attend training with Caroline Ingraham (founder of Applied Zoopharmacognosy) before she discovered the work that Dr Roark provides. Tanja loves seeing dogs perform self-selection to heal themselves and along with TTouches, she has seen some amazing results.

Tanja offers remote appointments via Zoom. In-person consultations are available at her ‘zen’ studio in Cheltenham (UK) or if necessary, travel to clients homes can be arranged within a 1 hour travel time for an additional fee. Contact her today to request a consultation!
