My whole journey into Counselling began some 7 years ago when the day that every pet owner comes to dread, the time to put my loving, loyal companion to rest.
I was utterly devastated by my feelings of loss, grief and sadness when our bond was broken by Alfie growing his wings and crossing the Rainbow Bridge.
I looked for a pet bereavement counsellor. I wanted to find someone who understood the depth of feeling I had for my boy, that felt important to me.
I didn’t want anyone to think ‘it’s just a dog!’ I couldn’t cope with the prospect of having those feelings of doubt on top of the incredibly painful feelings that I had never experienced before.
When I couldn’t access the help I was looking for, I wondered whether I could start the journey offering to others what I had been so desperate to find.
