About Me

Connection Creates Change

Training should feel clear, supportive, and sustainable - for both you and your dog.

Whether you're raising a puppy, building better everyday manners, or working through behavior challenges, my goal is to help dogs and thier owners communicate more clearly and navigate everyday life with greater confidence together.

I focus on creating practical, real-world results through thoughtful training, clear communication, and relationship-based guidance that supports lasting change.

Ways to Work Together

Choose the level of support that fits your dog and your goals.

In-Home Obedience Training

For dogs who need structure, clarity, and reliable skills in everyday life.

​

From leash walking to recall and manners, we build consistency and communication that carries into your real world.

In-Home Behavior Modification

​For reactive, anxious, or aggressive dogs who need deeper support and a structured plan. 

​

We focus on changing your dog's emotional state, building trust, and creating real-life progress you can maintain.

Group Classes

Structured learning in a controlled environment for foundational obedience and real-world skills.

​

Great for dogs who are ready to learn around distractions.

Trainer Takeover Program

​A hands-off training option where I work directly with your dog throughout the week.

​

Ideal for faster progress, busy schedules, or dogs who need more consistent guidance.​​

Writing & Reflections 

I share long-form writing on nervous system safety, behavior, reactivity, and the deeper relationship between humans and dogs.

While my work is grounded in dog behavior, these reflections often explore themes that extend beyond training — including regulation, trust, boundaries, and what it means to feel safe in the world.

Ariana is fantastic!! We were having some major resource guarding/behavioral issues between our two puppies, and over the course of 4 sessions we made SUCH significant progress. She throughly listened to the issues to create a plan for our specific needs. She taught us skills and methods to help us with their issues and we are now able to manage and prevent the issues. The results have been wonderful, more than I can express completely in a review. She’s amazing!
