Pet Bereavement Support Group

Pet Bereavement Support Group

Losing a pet can be a deeply painful experience, yet society often minimizes this type of grief. This six-week support group provides a safe and supportive space to share your story, process emotions about your loss, and connect with others who understand. Together, we’ll explore ways to honor your pet’s memory and take steps toward healing. Registration is now closed.

‍‍‍

Details:

• The group meets every Saturday from March 22 to April 26 from 10:00 am to 11:30 am. To maintain trust and continuity, we ask participants to commit to attending all sessions.
• This is a support group, not therapy, but all discussions will remain confidential.
• We kindly ask that at least one month has passed since your pet’s passing before joining the group.
