Pet Loss Support
6 Sessions, One Per Week
beginning
Wednesday, Sep. 23, 2026
The loss of a pet can be emotionally devastating. Sadly, the impact of the heartbreak of this type of loss is often downplayed or ignored by friends and family. This 6-meeting program is focused on offering pet owners an effective mechanism for taking action to move through and beyond their grief.
About The Format
This program is taught in 6 sessions, either once a week for 6 weeks or twice a week for 3 weeks. There are 2-3 days in between sessions if offered twice a week. Each session is approximately 2 hours long. There is reading and assignments in between sessions. GRM Support Groups are not drop in style groups. All GRM programs are confidential, structured and action oriented.

Welcome,
Our evidence-based support groups offer a safe, compassionate and confidential environment for pet-friend grievers to take effective and lasting action in helping your heart to heal. These groups are led by Tassy Hennessy, LAc, Grief Recovery Method Specialists, trained and certified by the Grief Recovery Institute. The location of our meetings will be held at: 345 Santa Fe Dr, Encinitas, CA 92024.
This is an 6-week, in-person course designed to take the GRM reading, home activities and in-person sessions at a weekly pace of one session a week. You will be paired with one or two people the whole 6-weeks so that you can feel really comfortable in your process, being supported in a confidential, non-judgmental way without any participant feedback and you can offer the same support for your partner(s) by just holding space for them as they did for you. This is a facilitated course where the GRM is learned, tools are provided for your understanding and growth, the activities you work on through the book readings and small home activities will be the actions that assist you in bringing your process of grief full circle to healing your heart and begin to breathe your life in again.
We will be using the "Grief Recovery Handbook for Pet Loss" by Russell Friedman, Cole James and John W. James. The book is included in the course as well as the printed homework lessons and you will have additional access to any other course materials, if you would like.
