154. Melissa Trevathan-Minnis, PhD

Dr. Melissa Trevatan-Minnis is not a pet professional, at least not in the way we traditionally think of them. However, as both a psychologist and a shelter volunteer, she’s familiar with the burnout and mental health strain common among those who work with animals. Now, she’s on a mission to change that through a new research program specifically designed to provide pet professionals with support, guidance, and counseling. Tune in to hear about the amazing work she’s doing and how you can get involved. Click here to learn more about the free support groups.
