Frequently Asked Questions
General Questions
What is pet bereavement support?
Pet bereavement support provides emotional guidance, coping strategies, and a safe space to help you process the grief of losing a beloved pet. It is not therapy but a compassionate approach to help you navigate loss.
Is This Therapy?
No, my support is not therapy but coaching. I provide emotional support, coping techniques and a safe space to process your loss, but I do not provide clinical therapy, think of it as pet bereavement coaching bridges the gap between a family member or friend and the work done by a psycotherapist. If deeper mental health support is needed, I recommend consulting a licensed therapist.
How do I know if I need pet bereavement support?
If you are struggling with overwhelming grief, feelings of guilt, sadness, or loneliness after losing your pet, support sessions can help you process your emotions and find a way forward.

Grief & Healing
How long does pet grief last?
Grief is different for everyone and has no set timeline. Some find comfort sooner, while others may take months or longer. The goal is not to "move on" but to learn how to live with love and remembrance.
How can I honour my pet's memory?
There are an endless number of ways to honour your pets memory. You can create a memory journal, hold a memorial ceremony, make a photo tribute, plant a memorial garden, or find a unique way that resonates with you
Can I share a tribute to my pet?
Yes! Sharing your pet’s story can be a beautiful way to celebrate their life and connect with others who understand your loss. Visit our Tributes Page to submit a tribute and honor your pet’s memory.
I feel guilty about my pet's passing. Is that normal??
Yes, guilt is a common emotion in pet loss, especially when making end-of-life decisions. Talking about your feelings in a safe space can help you process and release these emotions.
Do you offer support before pet euthanasia?
Yes. If you are facing the difficult decision of euthanasia, I offer pre-loss support to help you navigate emotions, prepare for the process, and find peace in your decision.
