No one seems to understand.

They don’t understand. It wasn’t “just a dog,”.

She was your best friend, your most trusted confidante, and a huge part of your life.

She went with you everywhere. work. shopping. traveling.

This world without her feels daunting and scary.

Loss. Uniquely Profound.

Your grief is profound and deep. The pain seems unbearable.

Sleep is challenging. Each day a struggle. Questioning “who am I” without her.

Daily reminders she is no longer here with you.

Her bed. Unused dog food. Leash. water bowl. Her smell.

Emotions are wildly uncontrollable.

One moment, you feel disconnected and numb; the next, you’re riding a turbulent wave of anger and tears.

It’s like you’re trapped in an endless cycle of depression, anger, shock, bargaining, anxiety, and confusion.

overwhelmed with shame for wanting to move forward and yet doing so feels so wrong.

You fell lost.

You thought you would be able to move on with time.

You’ve tried all the recommendations. Nothing seems to work.

You’ve found no relief, and unsure of what else to do.

Healing is within reach.

Your grief deserves to be acknowledged, expressed, and honored with love, allowing it to gradually become more manageable.

You deserve a compassionate, judgment-free space to navigate your emotions and discover new ways to cope with your loss.

With time and support, you can find comfort in cherished memories and move forward feeling stronger, more at peace, and open to joy once again.

It’s time to learn strategies to help you emerge from grief feeling confident, empowered, healthier, and happier.

It’s not what happens to you but how you react to it that matters.
