Lola Co-Founded Creative Family Counseling with her Mom, Lacey Ryan.   Lola and Lacey were certified as a Therapy Dog team to provide Animal-Assisted Therapy and did so for six years together.  The two were first certified while living in Nashville, TN and have been certified through a few different groups over the years, but most recently through Pawsibilities Unleashed.

Throughout her six years of service, Lola provided joy and inspiration to many patients at hospitals and nursing homes and most of all to the hundreds of clients at her practice, Creative Family Counseling.  Altogether, Lola logged more than 4000 service hours as a Therapy Dog.  She paved the way and created a space that her new four-legged team mates will continue to live into, spreading the joy and magical healing of an animal’s love and comfort.

She changed not only Lacey’s world, but many people’s worlds – what an incredible life of service of Creative Family Counseling’s first Therapy Dog.
