HELD

With a background in somatics and mindful movement, Kate has long held inquiries of the human experience in soft, safe and curious spaces. As a certified pet loss coach and grief tender, she weaves these threads together to provide compassionate support and a steady presence for pet parents navigating the loss of a beloved companion. She offers intentional environments where grief can be deeply acknowledged, witnessed, and welcomed.

As fur mum to Sapphi, Pickle, and her forever-cherished sky dog, Paddington, Kate has experienced first-hand the profound joys and depths of heartbreak that come with loving deeply. She understands the tender intricacies of the human-animal bond with the soul-deep resonance only a fellow guardian can. Guided by this lived experience and a commitment to trauma-informed, human-centric facilitation, she integrates breath, gentle embodiment and heart-led ceremony to create a sanctuary for others to honour their pets, the sacredness of their own unique grief, and to traverse the landscape of loss with kindred community.
