Introducing June's Animal-Assisted Therapy Employee of the Month...Dolly, the Dumbo Rat! 💓

Dolly, who works alongside Therapist Makalya Lalama, has two main settings - “who are you?” and “try getting me out of your sleeve.” Overall, Dolly is an absolute sweetheart who reminds us humans to continue to be curious and be gentle with one another. 🫶

🐀 Likes: Riding around in hoodie pouches, sitting atop people’s heads uninvited, cozy blankets, aggressively investigating anything crinkly, and belly scratches.
🐀 Dislikes: Loud noises, cats, and meeting her treat limit for the day.
🐀 Favourite Foods: Pumpkin seeds & cucumber

There’s something different about learning Animal Assisted Therapy in a real farm environment. 🐴🐐🐓

At the Fundamentals of CCAAT course, participants are not just sitting in a classroom learning theory. They are immersed in the experience… observing animal behaviour, understanding regulation and attachment in real time, and learning how to thoughtfully integrate animals into therapeutic work with children and youth.

Alexa recently shared how meaningful it was to learn at the farm and how the experience gave her the confidence to begin incorporating rats into her own sessions with clients. That kind of hands on learning is exactly what makes this training so impactful.

The environment, the animals, the conversations, and the experiential learning all come together to create a truly unique professional development experience.

If you’ve been thinking about integrating animals into your practice, this is your first step.

Fall course dates have officially been added, and there is now just one space remaining in our July Fundamentals of CCAAT session. Secure your spot and register today 👉 https://lilstepswellness.com/professional-development/p/fundamentals-of-ccaat

A hummingbird’s visit can mean many things to different people; healing after hard times (aka the longest winter ever), a spark of hope, a blessing of good luck, or even the quiet presence of a loved one’s spirit. 💖

May this sighting from our Li' Farm take you into your day with light, love, and a little more amazement than before.

Need a little more help finding that light? We've got you - lilstepswellness.com/therapy-services 💻

June is Men's Mental Health Month; a time to raise awareness about the unique mental health challenges men face, reduce stigma, and encourage open, supportive conversations around well-being. 🤝

If you are male or male-identifying or know someone who is, and feel more comfortable starting therapy with a male therapist, we’re here to support you.

Our dedicated team includes two exceptional male therapists, both of whom are committed to creating a safe, understanding space for your journey.

At Lil' Steps Wellness, we understand that children don’t always have the words to explain what they’re feeling. Big emotions, stressful experiences, anxiety, frustration, or behavioural challenges can show up in ways that are confusing for both children and parents. 😫

That’s where Play Therapy can help. 🫶

Check out our newest blog - Play Therapy: Helping Children Heal, Grow, and Thrive Through Play - for much more on this gentle, child-centered and child led approach to therapy that helps children express themselves in the way that comes most naturally to them…through play! 🧸
