| Dublin: Jennifer Allen, Pet Chaplain, Grief and Bereavement Counselor. Hello! I offer a Facebook Page and Private Facebook Group to help deal with Pet Loss Grief. In addition, we have a Zoom meeting on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month from 7:00pm-8:30pm. We would LOVE to have you. Please contact me directly at any time ~ whether you are dealing with anticipatory grief, the loss of a fur baby, or the pain of having to re-home a treasured pet. You will need to call me first so that I can send you invitations to our group(s). We have a wonderful group very dedicated to helping each other through grief...even if it has been years since they, or you, have been suffering with grief, loss, anger, sadness, and even gratitude for the time that we had with our pets. I have gone through more Pet Loss Grief than I can even imagine, but have found that the way to deal with it is to join with and help other people. The rest of our group is the same. Please call me if you need support! (614) 980-2052, jennifer@justlikemybabies.com, https://www.facebook.com/ColumbusPetChaplain/
