Disability Specific Skills-PTSD & Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Find Calm, Security, and Independence with Expert Service Dog Training

Living with PTSD or Generalized Anxiety Disorder can be overwhelming—but you don’t have to face it alone. Our PTSD & Generalized Anxiety Disorder Service Dog Training Course is designed to equip your service dog with essential, disability-specific skills that provide real-time support, helping you navigate life with greater confidence, safety, and peace of mind.


Why Disability-Specific Skills Matter

Service dogs trained in disability-specific tasks go beyond basic obedience. They are life-changing companions capable of responding to critical moments when you need them most. Whether grounding you during a panic attack, waking you from a night terror, or creating a protective boundary, your service dog becomes your strongest ally in managing PTSD or Generalized Anxiety Disorder.


What You’ll Learn

1. Deep Pressure Therapy (DPT)

  • Teach your dog to apply comforting pressure to reduce anxiety, calm panic attacks, and ease stress.
  • Learn step-by-step techniques for positioning, applying pressure, and responding to your cues in any environment.

2. Panic Attack Intervention

  • Train your service dog to recognize early signs of a panic attack and respond proactively with grounding techniques.
  • Develop skills for alerting you before an episode escalates and guiding you to safety if needed.

3. Interrupting Self-Injurious Behaviors

  • Teach your dog to gently interrupt harmful actions like scratching, hitting, or hair-pulling using soft, non-invasive interventions.

4. Nighttime Support & Sleep Assistance

  • Learn how to train your service dog to prevent sleep disruptions caused by nightmares, night terrors, or anxiety-induced restlessness.
  • Teach your dog to block the bedroom door, alert you to night terrors, and provide comforting pressure to help you fall back asleep.

5. Creating a Safe Zone & Personal Space Alerts

  • Train your service dog to create a physical boundary between you and approaching strangers, providing personal space and reducing feelings of vulnerability.
  • Teach your dog to alert you when someone approaches from behind or from outside your direct line of sight.
