Pet Loss Therapy

The bond you have with a pet is real. They are part of your daily life, your routines, your sense of comfort and companionship.

When that bond is gone, the loss can feel overwhelming.

You may be grieving deeply, while also feeling like others expect you to move on more quickly than you’re ready to.

Grief that often goes unrecognized

Pet loss is sometimes minimized by others, which can make it even harder to process:

• Feeling intense sadness, loneliness, or emptiness

• Missing the routines and daily connection you shared

• Guilt around decisions made before or at the end of your pet’s life

• Feeling misunderstood or dismissed by others

• Difficulty concentrating or getting back to normal routines

• Wondering if your reaction is “too much”

Your grief is valid. The relationship mattered, and the loss matters.

How I can help

I work with individuals navigating the emotional impact of losing a pet, including what is often referred to as pet bereavement.

This is a space where your experience is taken seriously and given the attention it deserves.

Our work may include:

• Processing grief at your own pace

• Working through guilt, second-guessing, or difficult decisions

• Finding ways to cope with the absence and change in daily life

• Honoring the relationship you had with your pet

• Rebuilding a sense of normalcy over time

Using a solutions-focused approach grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we’ll focus on helping you move through grief in a way that feels supportive and sustainable.

You don’t have to rush this

There is no timeline for grief.

You’re allowed to miss them.
You’re allowed to feel the loss fully.
And you’re allowed to take the time you need to adjust.
