Buster crossed the rainbow bridge peacefully after a lifetime of helping kids with big feelings. His lasting impression on me was: give it all away.
So here it is - all of it:

I am a child therapist who has spent over two decades helping kids with big feelings find their calm. I am trained in SPACE and other fancy acronyms. But my real teachers have been the families I work with & Buster, my 105 lb Doberman. We sat together over the past several years helping children face their fears. Over time, together, we were able to refine and put our work together into a guide so every parent can feel a little less guilt and a lot more confident. No guru vibes or strategies - just straight talk about what we have learned.
Buster started life with a lot of big feelings that came out as big body energy. With time, patience, guidance, and ice cream (I know....I know....he loved it though🤫), he became a joyful soul who loved every single person he met. For 6 years, he spent time in my office participating with kids through a range of animal-assisted activities that showcased obedience, problem-solving, and nurturance, bringing calm and confidence to the kids. He retired an office hero, crossed the bridge peacefully, and his story and work will live on for anyone who wants it. 🌈
