I'm Dr. Katrin Jahn.
I am one of only a few Double Board-Certified Specialists in Veterinary Behaviour Medicine. I am also a practicing veterinarian of over 25 years, and have owned and run my own small animal general practice for 16 of those years. This has provided me with a wealth of knowledge and experience in all areas of veterinary medicine and pet health.
I am extremely passionate about treating each patient as an individual and each patient-family dynamic as a unique entity.
I understand the complexity of Pet Behaviour Problems and am a keen advocate for the safe and effective use of psychopharmacology to support pet health, wellness and welfare, where appropriate.
I help and support my clients by combining science and evidence with kindness, compassion and empathy.
My aim is to enable the best welfare outcome for everyone and to support the patients, people and profits of all veterinary practices around the world.

Testimonials - Patients I have helped through Psychopharmacology
Terezia Balusikova, DVM, MSc, Dogs Trust
I just wanted to send you an email and let you know how much I am enjoying your Psychoactive course so far. I have done only about 35% but it’s so helpful, very comprehensive and I just like it a lot!
I am looking forward to the Zoom meetings too.
Thank you for this missing piece. I will likely say masterpiece once I complete it.
Dr Annette Lockley, BVSc
Many thanks for the course. I really enjoyed it. And despite having done the USYD CVE vet behaviour med course and currently studying for ANZCVS memberships, I still learned some invaluable info/tips, and it was an excellent revision opportunity also. As was the quiz!
Janet Cutler, CAAB
I wanted to thank you for the psychopharmacology course! It truly stands out in the online course world! I am a CAAB and often work with veterinarians who are uncomfortable with behaviour meds, and I'll definitely be recommending your course for those that are interested in learning more.
Michelle Nicholson, DVM, MSc, MANZVCS (Vet Behaviour), East Coast Veterinary Behaviour Services
Just finished lesson 3 in module 1. I am blown away by the content and organisation of the material, including downloads. I will be spreading the word to anyone who is interested in a great psychopharm course.
Dr Lilla Balatonyi, DVM
Thank you for this amazing course! I did not finish the complete material yet, but I already learned so much. Explaining everything in detail really gave me confidence in choosing the right drug for my behaviour patients.
