Many people don’t understand how difficult it is to lose a beloved animal companion. Sometimes friends or family members tell you to get another pet, or to “just get over it already.” The truth is that the grief you feel is absolutely normal and should be validated, not dismissed or belittled. Most of the time people don’t mean to cause you pain, they just don’t understand. I do understand. Having twice gone through the process of losing a pet over the last twelve years, I remember the grief I felt as if it were yesterday.
The program offers:
New York Pet Loss Support Services offers a 3-session online support program for individuals, couples, and families. All sessions are offered via a secure HIPAA compliant telehealth platform. We began as Long Island Pet Loss Support Services, providing in-person support to Long Islanders struggling to cope with the loss of their beloved pets. With a transition to secure online sessions, we are able to reach out to all of those across the state of New York who can benefit from this 3-session program. We accept Medicare insurance and can provide billing statements for submission to other insurance companies for reimbursement, depending on the specifics of your plan.
