Pet loss is hard.

Don't go it alone.

 

Pet Loss is one of the most difficult things we go through.

 

Yet so many of us go through it feeling alone - even when it's part of our professional lives!

But not anymore. Learn how we can help support you below.

Unfortunately, being a veterinarian doesn't mean you're spared the grief that accompanies the death of a beloved animal. How can we help?

I'm a veterinarian grieving the loss of my pet

As veterinarians, we often wonder how we can best help our clients when a pet dies.

Our Mission

 

This community - started by two veterinarians and a clinical psychologist - offers a compassionate and empathetic space to share your grief and honor your beloved pet.

We offer 4 different types of ongoing support options to help you find healing, encouragement, and a way through the pain.  

I know now that we never get over great losses; we absorb them, and they carve us into different, often kinder creatures."

We're in your corner

 

Losing a beloved pet is devastating, yet so many pet parents feel isolated as they process this grief.

We are here to change that.

We're here to show you that you are never alone.

What People Are Saying...

"My wife was hurting alot after we lost Buddy.  I decided to gift this to her to help her through the grief because I knew that there was only so much I could do.  She thanked me out of the blue the other day telling me how much this means to her."

 

"I honestly don't know what I would do without PLC and Dr. Lawlor, Dr. Lippman and Dr. Tarantino.  I lost both of my dogs within 2 months.  Noone really understood what I was going through. I spent the first month feeling numb to everything and with the private sessions that we've had, I am finally starting to understand and heal."
