In our journey as Certified Trauma Informed Coaches, we have witnessed the profound, life-altering impact that comes from uncovering the hidden wounds of trauma and learning to regulate and understand the nervous system. Our path began in veterinary medicine, with over 25 years combined experience in practice, and has expanded into coaching and personal development through Vet Empowered, which we founded together in 2020. We have a combined coaching experience of over 10 years.

Our mission is to spread this knowledge in our communities, creating safer, more compassionate spaces where individuals and communities can heal and thrive. We value authenticity, compassion, energy, and believe in treating everyone as a human, not just by their qualifications.

Through our partnership with The Mental Wellbeing Company, we are committed to bringing together trauma-informed practices and positive psychology to make them accessible to all. Having both completed the ICF and CPD accredited Somatic Trauma Informed Coaching Certification, we are part of the Trauma Informed Professional Network, the fastest growing community of trauma-informed professionals in the world.

This high-level certification has equipped us with the knowledge and skills to deliver transformative sessions that prioritise the mental health and wellbeing of your team, your students, or yourself.

Outside of work, we enjoy our passions—Katie in the gym and exploring the Saddleworth countryside, and Claire spending time with her dog Cabbage, shopping for vintage clothes, and dancing in her kitchen. We are proud to bring our unique, relatable and diverse experiences to our coaching, helping to empower professionals in animal-related industries and beyond.

Vet Empowered's mission is to provide high-quality, empowering personal development content and support, reminding every individual of their inherent value and fostering a community of supportive, likehearted professionals. Our core values are Kindness, Fun, Authenticity, Collaboration, Gratitude, and Compassion. We are proud to do things a bit differently here.
