🐾Today is World Pet Memorial Day. 🐾

For many people, the loss of a pet is one of the most significant losses they will experience. Yet it is often minimized, rushed, or misunderstood by those around them.

The truth is, grief doesn’t depend on species. It depends on connection.

Today, we honour the animals who walked beside us through life’s highs and lows, loved us without conditions, and left pawprints on our hearts long after they were gone.

At HGT Counselling, we recognize that pet loss is real grief. We hold space for those navigating the heartbreak of losing a beloved companion, offering support, compassion, and a place where your grief can be acknowledged and honoured without judgment.
If you feel comfortable, we invite you to share a photo, a favourite memory, or simply their name in the comments. We'd be honoured to remember them with you. ❤️🐾

"It was just a pet." 🐾

It's a phrase many grieving pet parents have heard, but for those who have loved and lost a companion animal, they know it was never just a pet.

Following Chelsea's conversation with CBC, we're continuing an important discussion about pet loss and the very real grief that comes with it. Our pets are often our constant companions through life's highs and lows. They offer comfort, routine, unconditional love, and a connection that leaves a lasting imprint on our hearts.

When they're gone, the loss can feel overwhelming. And because pet loss isn't always recognized in the same way as other losses, many people grieve in silence.

At HGT Counselling, we believe that grief deserves space, support, and compassion, regardless of who or what you've lost.🤍

If you've lost a beloved companion animal, what helped you through the hardest days? Share below. Your story might be exactly what someone else needs to hear today.

Some wounds don’t come from what happened to us —they come from what was missing.

Reading Mother Hunger by Kelly McDaniel can feel like finally finding words for an ache you’ve carried for years but never fully understood.

So many women grow up believing they’re:
“too sensitive”
“too needy”
“too much”
or “hard to love”…

When really, they may have spent years adapting to emotional absence, unmet needs, or not feeling fully seen, nurtured, protected, or guided.

Two things can be true at once:
Your mother may have loved you deeply and she still may not have had the emotional capacity to give you what you needed.

A meaningful read for anyone exploring:
- Attachment wounds
- People pleasing
- Relationship patterns
- Abandonment fears
- Emotional loneliness
- Nervous system healing
- Inner child work

Your body is often speaking before your mind catches up 🤍

A body scan is a gentle way to check in with yourself and reconnect to the present moment.

Heels on the floor.
Shoulders soften.
Tongue off the roof of your mouth.
Fingertips together.
Take one slow breath.

Small moments of awareness can help calm an overwhelmed nervous system and create a sense of safety in the body ✨

At HGT Counselling, we love using grounding tools like body scans because they’re simple, accessible, and supportive — especially on hard days.

Save this for when you need a reset 🤍

Healing isn’t always linear… but according to Remy, snacks and emotional support definitely help 🐾🤍

During sessions, Remy likes to use the Healing Wheel to help clients better understand their emotions and notice the areas of life that may need a little extra care,support, or attention.

He takes his role as Director of Canine Support very seriously… unless there’s a tennis ball nearby. 🎾

Welcome Olivia 🤍

We’re so excited to welcome Olivia to the team — she just completed her first week with us!

Olivia supports adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating stress, anxiety, relationships, and life transitions. Her approach is warm, grounded, and easy to connect with.

Here’s a little of Olivia’s “why” 🤍

I do this work because I care about helping people make sense of what they’re going through, especially when life feels heavy or overwhelming. Mental health is something I’m deeply passionate about, and I’m always drawn to understanding the “why” behind how we think and feel. I’ve seen how powerful it can be when someone feels truly heard and less alone. That’s why I focus on creating a space where you can show up as you are and feel supported without judgment. It’s not just about talking. It’s about building practical tools you can use in your everyday life so you can feel steadier, more confident, and in control. If you’ve been feeling stuck or overwhelmed, or just want someone in your corner, I’m here."

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or simply need someone in your corner, Olivia is here 🤍
