Pet Loss & Grief Recovery

Make space for the grief

Losing a pet can cause sadness, anger, guilt, relief, regret, loneliness, and other emotions. All feelings are welcome in this group.

Address unresolved feelings

We’ll discuss what was left unsaid, undone, or unresolved in your relationship, and provide a constructive outlet for these feelings.

Process your loss

With the Grief Recovery Method®, you’ll follow a structured process to identify and address the emotional aspects of your loss.

Find understanding

You’ll connect with others who recognize that the bonds we share with animal companions are powerful and understand the significant impact their loss can have on daily life.

This group supports adults grieving the loss of a pet or animal companion.

It is suitable whether your loss was recent or occurred years ago, and regardless of the circumstances, including illness, accident, euthanasia, or old age.

This is a small, dedicated group rather than a drop-in support group.

The program consists of six two-hour sessions over six weeks and includes weekly reading and written assignments, active participation, and adherence to group agreements, including confidentiality.

Program fee: $295
This fee includes the book, weekly assignments, email check-ins, and a one-month follow-up group.

If you are experiencing grief, longing, regret, guilt, anger, or other unresolved feelings related to an animal or animal companion and seek a structured approach to address them, this group may be a good fit.
