A Talk in the Woods Counseling - Pet Loss Grief Counselor - Nationwide
I am a certified Pet Loss Bereavement Specialist who has counseled hundreds of people after the devastating loss of a pet, or as they say, their best friend. I practice Dr. Alan Wolfelt's Companioning model and I also utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools and techniques. Coupled with compassionate support, I provide real, tangible coping strategies to help you move forward in your grieving journey.
I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology from City University and am a certified grief counselor through the American Institute of Health Care Professionals. I obtained a Pet Loss Bereavement Specialist certification through The Association for Pet Loss and Bereavement.
In 2006 I developed and implemented a Pet Loss Support Group sponsored by the Seattle Animal Shelter which I continue to facilitate. I also volunteer as a Chat Room Host for PetLoss Partners.
I offer sessions via Zoom, telephone or FaceTime. You don't have to travel this journey alone.
