Hey, I’m Michelle — dog behaviourist and proud bull breed fanatic.
I’ve been working with dogs professionally for 15 years and have a Master’s in Clinical Animal Behaviour.
I love to see owners get that clarity and "aha!" moment when they reach a breakthrough in their dogs behaviour - hence the Epiphany name.
I love to build relationships between dog and owner as this is the first thing to suffer and the hardest thing to rebuild when a dog starts to develop behaviour issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is behaviour modification, and how is it different from obedience training?
Behaviour modification helps shift your dog’s emotional responses — things like fear, reactivity, or over-excitement — rather than just teaching commands. We look at why your dog does what they do, then use positive, science-backed methods to change it gently and effectively.
My dog is “too much” and doesn't listen — will your training work for us?
Bring me your wild ones, your misunderstood misfits, your big feelings in furry form! I specialise in helping dogs that have struggled elsewhere. No judgement, just smart, empathetic support that works with your dog’s unique brain and body.
What’s the commitment? How long will it take?
Every dog is different, but meaningful change takes time and consistency. We’ll build a plan that’s realistic, effective, and sustainable. You’ll start seeing results early on — if you're committed to putting the work in.
