Dr. Suzanne Engelman - Laguna Niguel, CA - Nationwide
I am a licensed clinical and health psychologist, Board certified in Thanatology, which is the art of death, dying and bereavement. I am also a certified Animal Assistance therapist. I believe our animals are an important part of our family. When they die, similar feelings and expressions of loss can come up around their death, as would around the loss of a human family member. I would be honored to help with you as you work through the grief of your loss of your pet and animal companion!
