Counseling • Consulting

Our furry family members enrich our lives in countless ways; ways we often have difficulty expressing. I encourage you to call me or come see me and my tenderhearted therapy dog, Gracie, at one of my free pet loss support groups. You will be welcomed into a peaceful and relaxing environment to share your story and share your heart. Working through grief is difficult; please know I will walk with you every step of the way. Licensed in the state of Colorado only.

So often, when we see a friend or family member overcome by sadness after the loss of their beloved pet, we don’t know what to say or how to help them. I’d be honored to help you help them.  

 

My customary counseling fee is $85 for 50 minutes. I’d like to contribute in helping your loved one by offering a counseling session for 1 hour and 15 minutes for the same price. 

Gift certificates are personalized and mailed for you to the recipient. 
Please call me at: 970-966-4585 to order.
