“Patricia worked her therapeutic magic. She offered me the chance to explore the feelings of loss and what my long-time feline friend meant to me, the depth of this connection with him and the comfort this gave me. She conveyed a real respect and caring both for me and for my wise and gentle cat, which allowed for some unexpected emotions and insights to surface.”

“[Patricia] was simply wonderful—helped us work through our grief in a respectful, compassionate manner. Her skills were very evident as a grief counselor—she listened with an open, caring heart and was able to give us permission to honor our feelings of loss and anger and sadness. She enabled us to channel our really difficult emotions in a healthy way.”

“I don’t think I can fully express how grateful I am for our session. I was feeling completely overwhelmed, heartbroken, and lost after losing Xhek, and speaking with you brought me a sense of comfort I truly didn’t think was possible.

You helped me see things in a different light and gently guided me out of a very heavy place. Your kindness, warmth, and the way you listened made me feel safe and understood in a moment when I needed it the most.

What you said “Your beloved pet is the angel of your better self” stayed deeply with me. It touched something inside me and made me reflect on the love I gave and received from Xhek. It helped me realize that this love doesn’t disappear, it becomes part of who I am, and that brought me a sense of peace. After our conversation, I feel calmer, a little lighter, and more connected to life again. I’m still grieving, but I no longer feel as lost as I did before speaking with you.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your compassion, your time, and for helping me through such a painful moment.”
