Grief Feels Impossible When...

You're not alone in these feelings

πŸ’”

Others Don't Understand

Friends and family say "it was just a pet" when your companion was so much more than that.

πŸ˜”

You Feel Guilty

Second-guessing decisions, wondering if you did enough, questioning if you made the right choice.

🌧️

The Pain Feels Overwhelming

Everything reminds you of them. The silence is deafening. The emptiness feels unbearable.

🚫

You Don't Know How to Move Forward

Wondering if the pain will ever ease, when it's okay to smile again, or how to honor their memory.

😰

You're Caring for a Sick Pet

Facing difficult decisions, feeling anxious about what's ahead, and carrying the weight alone.

🀐

You're Suffering in Silence

Feeling like you need to hide your grief or move on faster than feels right for you.

Find Healing in Community

Our group support sessions provide a safe, compassionate space where your feelings are validated and understood. You'll connect with others who truly get itβ€”people who know that pet loss is real loss.

Led by registered therapist Michaele-Sue Goldblatt, each 75-minute session offers professional guidance combined with the powerful healing that comes from shared experience.

  • Process your grief in a judgment-free environment
  • Connect with others who understand your pain
  • Learn healthy coping strategies that actually work
  • Honor your pet's memory in meaningful ways
  • Find hope and healing at your own pace
I finally found people who understood. The group gave me permission to grieve fully and showed me I wasn't alone in how deeply I loved my dog.

Meet Michaele-Sue

As a registered therapist and lifelong animal lover, I understand the profound bond we share with our pets. I've walked this path myself, and I know how deep pet loss grief can run.

For years, I've been helping people navigate the complex emotions of losing a beloved companion. In our group sessions, I create a space where all feelings are welcome, where tears and laughter coexist, and where healing happens through connection.

You deserve support that honors both your grief and your love. I'm here to guide you through this journey.

Common Questions

How do I know if group support is right for me? +

If you're grieving the loss of a pet or caring for a sick pet and feeling alone in your pain, group support can help. Many people find that connecting with others who truly understand makes all the difference. You can start with a single session to see if it feels right for you.

What's the difference between therapy and these sessions? +

These sessions are structured as group support rather than individual therapy. While Michaele-Sue is a registered therapist, the focus is on guidance, support, and coping strategies in a group format. This approach provides professional expertise in a more accessible, community-focused environment.

How big are the groups? +

Groups are kept intentionally small (typically 6-10 participants) to ensure everyone has space to share and feel heard. This size creates intimacy while providing diverse perspectives and support.

What if I'm too emotional to share? +

That's completely okay. You're welcome to listen and participate as much or as little as feels comfortable. There's no pressure to share, and tears are always welcome. The group provides a safe space to feel whatever you're feeling.

When are sessions held? +

Session times vary to accommodate different schedules. When you book, you'll receive information about upcoming session dates and times. All sessions are held online via Zoom.

What if it's been a long time since my pet died? +

Grief has no timeline. Whether your loss was recent or years ago, if you're still struggling, you're welcome here. Many people find our sessions helpful even years after their loss.
