This updated edition of Pet Loss and Human Emotion is a
step-by-step guide to leading clients through this special kind of
grief. Includes resources and a section on pet loss and natural
disasters.
As society accepts that grieving over the death of a loved one
is not only normal, but healthy and necessary, grieving over the
loss of a pet is often seen differently. Expressed feelings often
go unvalidated when in truth, pet loss is a unique form of grief
that can be quite intense and debilitating, increasing an
individual's vulnerability to subsequent stress and leaving them
feeling isolated and misunderstood.
Pet loss needs to be addressed by therapists and others in the
helping professions, to better enable them to help their clients
through the loss of their companion animals. This unique guide is
written for all professionals helping clients deal with the loss of
a pet, and serves as a practical introduction to the field of
human-animal bonding. Citing several case studies, it describes
various techniques for helping clients when the bond with a pet is
broken.
