Katie has been and continues to be a great help at a time of great change. When I am very much in need of guidance and support, she listens, she is available, she is supportive and she provides really useful approaches to issues and problems. She is encouraging and she is attentive, and takes an active interest - and she is good at remembering details!

Pet Loss Grief Counselor|Massachusetts|Telehealth

Of the many types of relationships that I specialize in, the one dearest to my heart is the relationship between dog and human.

With our beloved animals, there exists a special bond that many people are fortunate enough to experience in their lives. Out of this special attachment comes pure joy, but it can also lead to wrenching heartache.

Having both personal and professional experience with pet loss grief, I want to assure you that you are not alone. I have personally navigated and worked through the difficult emotions associated with losing my beloved companion.

As a licensed mental health counselor, Pet Loss Grief is a central area of my clinical work in Massachusetts. I am passionate about serving others, young and older, who might need support after losing their furry friend. Through telehealth sessions, I provide unconditional warmth, compassion, and empathy, creating a safe space for you to share your story and gain support as you navigate the next steps in your healing journey.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
