The Rainbow Bridge to Healing, LLC
About
Hi there, I’m Rachel, a designated AVA-Approved Veterinary Assistant and Pet Loss Bereavement Specialist (PBLS). After 25 years as a corporate executive, I followed my heart and found my purpose back to animals — and into the emergency and ICU departments of one of the country’s leading animal hospitals. There, surrounded by love and loss, I realized a gap in care: no true space for grieving pet parents to process the deep emotional impact of their loss. This is the space I’ve created — one built with compassion, understanding, and the promise that you never have to grieve alone.
If you're here, chances are you've loved — deeply. You've shared your life with
an animal who offered you unconditional love, quiet companionship, and joy beyond measure. And now, you’re navigating the quiet after their paw steps,
or perhaps living with the heaviness of knowing that goodbye may be near.
You’re not alone — and you’ve come to the right place.
The Rainbow Bridge to Healing, LLC is a safe, supportive space dedicated
to helping individuals, couples, children, and families through the pain of anticipatory grief and the heartbreak of losing a beloved animal companion. Whether your loss is recent, approaching, or lingering — your grief is valid here.
I am hoping to help, support, and build connections to anyone who has loved, lost, or is anticipating loss of a beloved pet.
