The Guides | Pet Loss Grief Counseling

My clients say it best, before you read another word, I invite you to visit my Google Reviews. (40, 5 Star Reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ) 

Losing a pet is one of the most profound losses a person can experience and one of the most misunderstood. You deserve more than "they were just a dog" or "just get another one." You deserve real support, from someone who truly gets it.

I'm Kimberly Blair, and I've spent over a decade helping people heal from the inside out. With a background in psychology and advanced training through the Grief Recovery Institute, with a specialization in pet loss, I bring both clinical expertise and deep compassion to every session. I don't just help you cope. I help you find emotional completion and ways to honor your beloved best friend. As a animal guardian myself, I understand authentically what you're going through because I've loved and lost too. 

What makes my approach different is the whole person care I bring to our sessions. In addition to my grief counseling, I am a Clinical Hypnotherapist, Reiki Master, Conscious Connected Breathwork Practitioner, and Sound Therapist. This means we can meet your grief on every level: emotional, physical, energetic, and even spiritual so nothing gets left behind.

My supportive 6 Session Pet Loss Therapy Program is 90 minutes each and built around three core outcomes:

— To remember your pet as they lived, not only as they left

— To hold fond memories that no longer turn painful

— To have a life of meaning and value, and the capacity to love again when you're ready 

Together we'll tenderly explore the questions that keep you up at night: What could I have done differently? Did they know how much I loved them? We'll honor the hopes, dreams, and expectations that loss took with it too. 

This depth work is not just about grieving. It is about honoring, remembering, and ultimately reconnecting with your own heart.

I offer sessions in person in San Diego and virtually so wherever you are, support is within reach. I would be honored to walk beside you and I'm currently accepting clients. You can expect a timely response from me as well. 

Introducing the Pet Grief Relief App: Support Available the Moment You Need It

Grief doesn't wait for office hours. That's why I created the Pet Grief Relief App,  the first of its kind, designed specifically for pet parents navigating loss. Available anytime, anywhere, the app brings my clinical approach directly to your fingertips with guided meditations, breathwork sequences, emotional check in exercises, journaling prompts, and holistic wellness tools all built around the same frameworks I use with clients in session.

Whether you're waking up at 2am not knowing how to cope, or looking for a daily practice to support your healing, the app meets you exactly where you are. Sessions range from 5 to 20 minutes, making real support accessible even in your hardest moments.

Because you shouldn't have to wait to feel better.
