Hi, I’m Coach Tiff—a strength and wellness coach with 20+ years of experience helping people build both physical and mental strength through movement.

I’m raising funds for a Psychiatric Service Dog (PSD) to support my mental health stability, grounding, and emotional regulation. I’ve lived with mental health challenges since childhood, and while I’ve built my life around helping others become stronger, there are times my own symptoms make it difficult to consistently show up the way my clients deserve.

This PSD will help me stay regulated, grounded, and consistent so I can continue doing my life’s work: helping others feel stronger, safer, and more confident in their bodies and minds.

What the PSD will be trained to do:

• Deep Pressure Therapy during anxiety episodes

• Grounding support during dissociation or overwhelm

• Early anxiety alert response

• Sensory/tactile grounding to regain focus

• Guided exit from overstimulating environments

• Crowd buffering / personal space support

• Routine interruption when symptoms escalate

Goal: $8,500–$12,000

Funds cover PSD sourcing/adoption, professional task training, handler support, veterinary care, certification guidance, and working gear (vest, harness, ID, equipment).

This isn’t just about getting a service dog—it’s about stability. When I’m grounded, I can continue showing up fully for my clients and community, doing the work I’ve dedicated my life to.

Every donation directly supports my ability to stay well and keep serving others consistently.

Thank you for believing in my healing, my work, and my purpose.
