Debby Potts

About this trainer

Debby Potts has been passionate about animals since childhood, despite being allergic to them. She overcame her allergies and dedicated her life to animal well-being. She became one of Oregon’s first board-certified veterinary technicians and later one of the first Tellington TTouch Instructors. Her journey with TTouch began in 1984 when she sought a way to help a horse with a head injury. She was inspired by the progress the horse made and has been using TTouch to help animals and people ever since.

Training Philosophy

Debby Potts believes in a holistic approach to animal well-being, focusing on physical, mental, and emotional health. She uses Tellington TTouch, a gentle hands-on method, to improve health, training, behavior, and the relationship between people and animals. She also incorporates other modalities like BodyTalk and life coaching into her work.

Services

Debby Potts offers a wide variety of workshops and individual sessions for animals and humans. She also oversees and teaches the Tellington TTouch Companion Animal Practitioner Trainings in Japan, Taiwan, and China.
