Ep. 35: Traumas Talk To Traumas; Meet Kadeth Pozzesi, LMFT, RVT

Kadeth is a retired RVT turned private practice, licensed marriage and family therapist, integrating heart, mind, spirit, body, and knowledge into building healing pathways. His primary populations include the LGTBQA community, domestic violence survivors, and the veterinary community. He is a Reiki master teacher and shaman practitioner. He's been a really important part of Margold Veterinary, helping it to develop from the beginning, as Dr. Eve's virtual vet tech. While he was working with her, he was also able to get his LMFT and start his own private practice. 

In February 2022, he spoke at the house call and Mobile Vet Virtual Conference about trauma as it relates to the house call veterinarian. He offers unique, individually tailored therapy, fusing activism, therapy, and spiritual practices with real human connection. Outside of work, he is also an artist and a musician.

Topics covered in this episode:

• Kadeth's journey as a veterinary technician

• His transition from veterinary medicine to becoming a licensed therapist
• Traumas talk to traumas
