About Serenipaws Scotland
A safe, trauma-informed, neurodivergent-friendly space for healing through dogs.
Serenipaws Scotland was created through lived experience — rebuilding life after trauma, loss, addiction recovery, complex PTSD and a late ADHD diagnosis, all supported by the healing presence of dogs.
Serenipaws exists to give others the calm, safe, shame-free support I never had. Everything is trauma-informed, neurodivergent-friendly, and rooted in compassion.
I’m Leah — a trauma-informed coach, IMDT dog trainer, and late diagnosed, neurodivergent woman.
My work blends lived experience, science, emotional understanding and a deep love for dogs.
I help overwhelmed humans and sensitive dogs feel safe, supported and understood.
My Approach
Everything here is built on safety, calmness and connection:
• Clear steps
• Slow pacing
• No judgment
• Support designed to reduce overwhelm
• Tools that help you and your dog regulate together
Serenipaws is a space where you can breathe again.
Our Team
Serenipaws grows through a small circle of supportive humans who share the same mission — helping people and dogs rebuild safety, confidence and connection.
It is due to their understanding, support and compassion that we are able to continue to help others help themselves.
We wouldn't be here without them.

🐾 Why Dogs?
Dogs have the incredible ability to co-regulate with us, soften stress, anchor us in the moment and rebuild a sense of safety.
Serenipaws reflects that — healing through partnership, understanding, and the nervous system wisdom dogs naturally offer.
🤝 The Team
At Serenipaws, our team is built on understanding, compassion and lived experience. We believe people heal best when they feel safe, supported and truly seen. Together, we bring a calm, gentle approach that helps humans and dogs grow at their own pace — with no judgement and no pressure.
We’re here to walk beside you, not in front of you. Our role is to support you as you learn to trust yourself, understand your dog, rebuild confidence and create a life that feels calmer and more connected. Every part of our work is rooted in kindness, patience, real encouragement, and the belief that you can help yourself when you’re given the right tools and the right support.
Serenipaws isn’t just a service — it’s a community of people who care deeply about helping others find safety, strength and hope again.
✨ Our Mission
To make emotional support, trauma-informed tools and dog-assisted healing accessible for neurodivergent, overwhelmed and sensitive humans — without shame, pressure or judgment.
