Veterinary Coaching
Are you a veterinary medical professional who is feeling overwhelmed, unsupported, or possibly even worried that you might burn out?
You're not alone. These issues are endemic to our profession and hard to ignore.
Pick up almost any issue of the JAVMA in the past several years and you’ll read about the rising incidence of mental health problems and suicide in our profession. Talk about a grave prognosis.
Many articles warn of the risks of burnout and compassion fatigue, yet few offer any solutions. It’s no joke and it’s a very common problem that veterinary professionals face.
As medical professionals, we are such a dedicated group of people, and we a face a myriad of professional demands that can easily leave us feeling overwhelmed and unsupported. This is the challenge that I help veterinary professionals overcome.

My sessions with Dr. Lovelace have helped me become a better person, student, and future veterinarian. Together we have been able to develop techniques that help me take on challenges with confidence rather than doubt. She is so incredibly knowledgeable and our sessions have helped me grow to create a better version of myself. I am so excited to continue to flourish with her guidance and coaching.

Dr. Lovelace is an excellent coach. She has unique perspectives on what seem to be mundane or common problems in one's career or life. Instead of focusing on specific problems, she helps you toward self-improvement to deal with other problems in the future; she even helps you set goals for the time between sessions. And, she is quick to remind you that even if you haven't fully accomplished your goal, at least you are trying and that is better than where you started! I have learned a lot from working with her, and while no change is instant, on the occasions when find myself facing a new issue, I have caught myself falling back on methods she has demonstrated with me. Thanks Dr. Lovelace!

Karen really helped me through a very difficult chapter in my life. After suffering four miscarriages, she helped me to stay positive and find the strength to go through the trials of IVF while continuing to show up at work. Her approach was very practical and super encouraging. I always came away from our sessions feeling uplifted. I feel I am now much more self-aware, calm, and can identify the negative voices in my head. I am looking forward to the future which was looking fairly bleak six months ago. I would highly recommend her to anyone, as everyone needs a Karen
on their team!

I can't recommend Karen highly enough to anyone going through tough challenges. I didn't think I needed coaching - I thought I was doing fine! I just wish I'd known about Karen sooner. After a few sessions with her, my anxiety lifted and my mindset changed. I now feel a sense of peace, calm, and confidence. My husband and mother noticed it immediately. I loved being free to ask questions and discuss things I couldn't share with family or friends. Karen taught me practical tools for shifting my mindset, and she is empathetic with such a generous spirit. Since working with Karen, I've gotten back my confidence and sense of humor. I feel better and I full of hope.

Getting coached by Karen was one of the best decisions I have made. Each session brought me clarity, wisdom, happiness, and most importantly for me, peace. I remember the initial sessions, where I used to be, you could say, under a negative light or cloud, focusing on what other people thought of me, looking for validation outside, and henceforth I was not completely happy. Coaching and meditation techniques provided me needed peace which allowed me to focus on things that truly matter for my growth and for my family. I had a great experience coaching with Karen, and would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. I am happy that now I can see the positive side of things in life, and will always be grateful for her support!
