Grief Recovery Client Reviews
“Kimberly is an amazing person to work with. She helped me redefine and restructure how I began to deal with the passing of a family member. I came out of it with such a different perspective, and I truly encourage anyone and everyone who has dealt with grief to give it a shot. She is an outstanding person. Couldn't recommend it more”

“I saw Kimberly for the pet loss grief therapy program. If you are dealing with a loss, I highly recommend seeing her and working through the program. It was a very emotional experience and I’m glad she was there to help validate and navigate my feelings. It’s been 3 months since my dog’s passing and I miss her every day and still cry for her at times, but I don’t feel the gut wrenching pain I had before I started the program”

“The Grief Counseling and Recovery Program was wonderful. I completed it about nine months after my dad passed away from a long-fought battle with cancer. I appreciated the text that came alongside the program, as it gave me a place to read about the experiences I was feeling and gave me an action-oriented way to process my grief. The exercises and final letter were a powerful way to work through my emotions and remember my dad. Also, Kimberly was amazing. She always actively listened, helped me process, and shared her own story along the way, all of which was so helpful.”

“We frequently speak with families who express that the loss of their pet is akin to losing a parent, or even worse,” said Dr. Elizabeth Benson, hospice veterinarian and founder of Paws into Grace, a Southern California-based company that specializes in end-of-life pet care. “We support grief support programs like The Guides because we know the importance of allowing families the space to honor their pets and experience a healing process.”
Healing the Heart After Pet Loss:
A Heartfelt Path to Honor Your Pet
In partnership with Paws Into Grace, The Guides Holistic Therapies is offering a loving and transformative program to help you navigate the profound loss of a cherished pet.
Losing a beloved pet is one of life’s most profound and personal losses. At The Guides Holistic Therapies, we honor the special bond you shared with your pet and offer a compassionate, action-based program designed to help you navigate your grief and find emotional healing.
Unlike traditional talk therapy, which focuses on exploring feelings over time, our Pet Loss Grief Recovery Program takes a structured and proactive approach. In just six sessions, you’ll work through an evidence-based method to address the emotional pain of your loss, uncover and release unresolved feelings, and achieve a profound sense of emotional completion.
This program is not about “moving on” or replacing your loss—it’s about embracing a compassionate process to truly honor your pet’s memory. It helps you gently release lingering sadness, guilt, or regret, especially those heartfelt questions like, “What could I have done differently, better, or more?”
What Makes This Program Different?
Action-Oriented Healing: While talk therapy often emphasizes sharing and processing emotions, this program focuses on guided actions to address the pain at its root, enabling deeper and faster healing.
A Safe, Loving Space: You’ll have the opportunity to reflect on your relationship with your pet in a nonjudgmental and supportive environment, creating a bridge between their memory and your healing journey.
Tailored to Pet Loss: We understand the unique challenges pet parents face, including the societal minimization of their grief. This program is designed specifically to validate and address these feelings.
Completion in Six Sessions: Within a short time, you’ll experience a profound shift, emerging with a lighter heart and a sense of peace that allows you to cherish the love you shared.
What You’ll Gain:
A renewed sense of peace and emotional clarity.
Tools to process loss in healthy ways for the future.
The ability to reflect on your pet’s memory with love and gratitude, free of unresolved pain.
