Grief is never easy nor does it take the most direct path. The Grief Pathfinder system helps you find your own way.
I am not a cruise director, pointing out the sights and stops along your journey through grief. Rather, my job is to offer you a compass and a topography map and help you chart your own course.
The Grief Pathfinder system is for those who want to fully integrate and move forward into the new reality grief left them, not “slap a bandage on it” and move on. It doesn’t matter whether your pet was with you for only a short time or for years (or longer). Your pet has changed your life. Allow me to witness and hold space for the changes that are happening at this moment.
The Grief Pathfinder System is for those who…
- Aren’t sure who they are anymore after the loss of their pet.
- Experiencing grief that isn’t seen or validated by those around you.
- Looking for answers, but more importantly looking for a way forward.
- Want to know they are not alone and what they are feeling and experiencing is normal.
How I Work
We begin with a story, the story of you and your pet's time together. Your story will show us the way. It will give us the markers we need to chart this new path.
From there, each grief pathfinder session is unique depending on what arises in the moment. However, my goal is always to support you however your grief is expressing itself and whatever emotions arise. We will discuss things that will help ease your grief and ways to soothe yourself when the sharp moments of profound grief happen, because they will. Grief bursts are like summer thunderstorms, bubbling to the surface before raining themselves out in tears.
Finally, we'll work together to re-imagine how your future will look and what it will hold. No judgment. No mandatory "to dos", only you and your story to guide the way.
Who can benefit from a Grief Pathfinder session?
- Those experiencing grief from the death of a beloved animal companion
- Those who are caring for a pet that has a terminal diagnosis (anticipatory grief)
- Those who have had to give up a pet for whatever reason or had a pet taken from them
- Those whose grief isn’t seen as valid or recognized by those around them
- Those who have experienced collective grief such as a loss that affected a large group of people
- Even regret or wishing things were different, even though your pet is still with you can benefit from a grief pathfinder session.
You are not alone. What you are experiencing is normal. Grief takes many forms.
