Pet Loss Grief & Support Group

A 4-week therapist-led support group for those grieving the loss of a pet, anticipating a loss, or caring for a medically complex companion.

Losing a pet can be one of the most painful experiences we face, yet pet loss is often misunderstood or minimized by others.

For many people, pets are family. They are daily companions, sources of comfort, and witnesses to some of life’s most important moments.

When they die, the grief can be profound.

This group was created to offer a space where that grief doesn’t need to be explained, justified, or minimized. Together, we’ll create room to remember, process, and honor the bond you shared with your pet.
