S2E9 Mental Health Surrounding Euthanasia with Emily Horton, RVT

This week we decided to switch gears and dive into an uncomfortable, yet critically important topic: mental health and euthanasia. To do so, Dr. Shannon Gowland sat down with registered veterinary technician and colleague, Emily Horton. Emily has been an incredible advocator for mental health in this profession for years. She, like so many others, struggled for far too long before opening up, and now hopes to encourage others reach out and seek help. In this episode we discuss all aspects of euthanasia, and how we can better support our colleagues, clients, and patients during these difficult times. Dr. Gowland and Emily also talk about looking after one another and some signs that can be helpful in identifying someone who needs help. We hope that today's episode, as well as Emily's story, inspires you to show yourself kindness and know that you are not alone. As a warning, the topics in this episode are sensitive and may be triggering to some listeners. If you or someone you know is seriously struggling with mental health, please seek help.
