My work was born from the love of my soul dog, Chachie, who walked beside me for sixteen beautiful years. Being his mom will always be my greatest and most sacred role. When he passed, I felt a depth of grief I didn’t know was possible. It was through that journey of love, loss, and rediscovery that Under the Guiding Star came to life.

 

After losing Chachie, I explored many ways to channel my grief — but nothing truly fit until I began studying pet loss and grief support. Through a ten-week pet loss grief counseling program, I found not only healing, but also a clear calling: to walk with others through their own journeys of heartbreak and remembrance. Since then, I’ve completed certifications in Pet Loss Grief Support Coaching and Pet Death Doula work, and I’ve had the privilege of interning with a pet loss support group that deepened my understanding of this sacred space.

 

I believe that the bond we share with our animal companions is one of the purest forms of love — and that when they leave us, the grief deserves to be honored, tended, and witnessed with compassion. My role is to help you navigate that grief, find your footing in a world that feels changed, and rediscover connection in new and meaningful ways.

 

In my practice, I also draw on my passions for shadow work, meditation, and inner child healing, creating a holistic space where emotional, spiritual, and energetic support meet. Together, we honor your beloved companion’s story, explore your own emotions without judgment, and gently open the door to healing.

 

Under the Guiding Star is more than a practice — it’s my love letter to Chachie and to every soul who has ever been forever changed by the love of an animal. My hope is that here, you feel seen, supported, and reminded that even in grief, love continues to guide us.
