How did you hone your craft?

I honed my craft through formal education, clinical training, and the privilege of walking alongside clients in their grief. My approach is also shaped by my own experiences with the loss of beloved pets, which deepened my empathy and commitment to this work.

What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?

One tip I often share is to truly honor the routines and small moments with your pet—they become some of the most meaningful memories after a loss. Taking time to be present during everyday interactions, like walks or quiet time together, not only strengthens your bond but also helps ease grief later, knowing you were emotionally connected and intentional in your time together.

What is one thing you want pet parents to know about you? It can be whatev-fur you'd like!

One thing I want pet parents to know is that I understand how real and painful the loss of an animal companion can be, and I provide a supportive, judgment-free space to work through that grief. I currently offer virtual sessions for residents of DC, Maryland, North Carolina, and Virginia, making compassionate care accessible wherever you are.
