Laurie Chandler LMFT - Pet Loss Grief Counselor - Larkspur, CA
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with specialized training in Pet Loss Grief Counseling, I have dedicated over a decade of my life to helping pet parents navigate the profound feelings of loss and grief associated with their beloved animals. I understand that pets are family members, and the emotional turbulence that comes with losing them can be overwhelming. My services cater to California residents, offering both in-person consultations and regular weekly counseling sessions, tailored to your unique needs. Whether it’s dealing with anticipatory grief or transitioning to a life without your furry friend, I’m here to guide you through every step of this challenging journey.
I work with a diverse array of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and even more exotic pets like reptiles and rodents. This extensive experience allows me to empathize with your specific situation, regardless of the type of pet you have loved and lost. My therapeutic approach utilizes Jungian and depth psychology, along with an archetypal and mythological lens, ensuring a holistic view of your grief process. This personalized approach helps create a meaningful and vital life even in the face of loss, addressing not just grief, but also transitions, aging, and existential concerns.
Ready to reclaim joy and find peace in your heart? I invite you to take the first step toward healing by booking a session with me. Together, we can honor your pet's memory and navigate the complexities of grief. Let’s embark on this healing journey. Book through Petworks today!
