Mentoring in Clinical Animal Behaviour
Seeking mentoring in clinical animal behaviour? Zoe Demery, Megan Richardson and Keely Needham are very happy to mentor or supervise anyone studying or working in clinical animal behaviour. You could be working through the CCAB route as a FAB Clinicians candidate member, a provisional APBC member, an associate certified IAABC member, a vet or RVN in general practice – or indeed anyone just looking for a bit more guidance. Perhaps you are hoping to add a behaviour clinic to your veterinary practice? Whatever it is, get in touch!
You would be welcome to sit in on our dog, cat or bird consultations to gain more experience virtually or in person. Alternatively, we are available for a chat, to help you network, or to give you feedback on your own work.
Our mentors are fully insured and, between them, have years of experience running successful clinical behaviour businesses and supporting a wide range of animal behaviour students.

I feel your mentoring is very personalised. You provide more than just mentoring through cases – it’s career mentoring. You take into consideration a person’s individual circumstances and make suggestions on how best to support.
