Specialized Pet Loss Counseling For You and Family - Nationwide
I am an avid animal lover who also helps people with challenges related to pet loss.
I have been an animal shelter volunteer, serial kitten foster, and the founder of a nonprofit partnering with rescues in Asia for several years.
Through my experience with animals and their caregivers, I have a deeper understanding of the human-animal bond and can appreciate the various challenges when working in the animal welfare field.
Often, I hear from pet owners how a certain animal or pet “changed their lives” (I am one of them). I believe that this phenomenon is very real and that the loss of an animal companion or pet can be very distressing for individuals.
I am here to help you through the pain and grief of losing your beloved pet. Feel free to reach out for a free 15 minute consultation. I look forward to working with you.
