Meet Harvey
Harvey Milk
Professional Therapy Animal
Therapy Partner, Jace Schmidt, M.S., LPC
Harvey is a Ragdoll cat and professional therapy animal who partners with Jace in animal-assisted counseling. He brings a gentle, welcoming, and sometimes silly presence to the counseling space and loves meeting new people.
What Therapy with Me Looks Like:
As a professional therapy animal, Harvey is part of creating a safe, welcoming, and comfortable counseling environment. His presence may provide opportunities for connection, grounding, playfulness, and moments of comfort as clients engage in their therapeutic work.
About Me:
Harvey is a professional snuggler who enjoys belly rubs, playing with his favorite cat wand, and, of course, his favorite Churu treats(especially the cheese flavors). He is often happy to interact with clients or simply relax nearby while providing a comforting presence
