Telehealth Grief Therapy and Canine Bereavement For Dog Parents in California. I provide individual adult grief therapy for dog parents who have lost their beloved doggy child. I believe the core of the work is in developing a real relationship that is built on trust, mutual respect of what a dog means to you and your family, as well as genuine and authentic moments of understanding that can help you as dog parents through the loss of your 4-legged loved one. I believe in the healing power of humor, the acknowledgment of pain, and the sharing of cherished memories. My ultimate goal is to support you and give space for processing this difficult time of loss and transition. Please contact and book me on Petworks. Thank you.

💙 There are moments in the grief process when what you need most is simply to be heard by someone who truly understands — someone who knows that the loss of a pet is not a small thing, that the silence in the home is real, and that what you are carrying deserves the same compassion and attention as any profound loss. That is what Debbie offers.


What Debbie Can Help You With


Pet loss grief arrives differently for everyone — and Debbie works with each client according to where they are in their own process, without a fixed agenda or a predetermined timeline. Sessions with Debbie typically address processing the immediate emotional aftermath of losing a pet, navigating anticipatory grief for those preparing to say goodbye to an aging or seriously ill companion, working through guilt and doubt around end-of-life decisions including euthanasia, finding meaningful and personal ways to honor your pet's memory, adjusting to a daily routine that has been fundamentally altered by their absence, and helping other family members — including children and surviving pets — move through the loss in their own way. If you are not sure exactly what you need, that is completely normal. Debbie's first session is designed to help you find that out together.


Why Book With Debbie


Choosing the right person to help you through pet loss is a deeply personal decision — and the most important thing is finding someone whose presence feels safe and whose approach feels right for you. Debbie brings verified credentials, real client experience, and a genuine understanding of the human-animal bond to every session. Because sessions are conducted virtually, there is no commute, no waiting room, and no need to hold yourself together in a clinical setting — you can show up exactly as you are, from the place where you feel closest to your pet's memory. Debbie serves clients throughout California and is available to anyone nationwide through PetWorks.
