"The help you need when you are heartbroken over the loss of your pet"

Our pets are a huge part of family and losing our fury friends can leave a big hole in our lives in a way that only other pet parents can identify with. It’s an area that can be often overlooked and we may feel like we just have to ‘get on with it’. Which is just too hard when we see their collar, bowl or hutch.

I’m offering a two session package if you would like someone to talk to after losing your pet. Sometimes it can be life altering; such as if you take your dog for a walk every day and now no longer have that purpose. Or if your children are struggling to deal with their loss I can help them too. I get it.

I grew up in a house full of pets and at various times we had dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters (they really hurt when they bite), birds and fish! And probably other things I’ve missed out. I was seven when the rabbit died and I cried so much my mum said that we weren’t going to get any more pets because this bit was too hard. She obviously didn’t stick to that. But as a kid it’s a big thing to experience. Though in a way that prepared me for losing the family dog, Trotter who was there before I was born and died when I was fourteen. I sobbed for days and remember thinking that if I was this heartbroken now what would I be like when I lost a grandparent! My beloved pets prepared me for the inevitable and whilst it’s all devastating I feel grateful to them for that and their unconditional love. Even the elusive felines.
