ABOUT JUDY

As a certified Grief Recovery Method® Specialist and End-of-Life Pet Doula, you may think Judy Jackson is in the sad business. But if you ask her, she'll say she's in the gratitude business.

 

Judy's Grief Recovery interest spawned from early and sudden experiences with losing close family members. No one discussed these losses with her as a child. As a result, she had many unanswered questions and unresolved emotions regarding death. Her search for answers began.

 

In her college years, Judy's course work included a fortuitous mix of nursing, religion, and sociology, allowing her to study the connectedness of life and loss. Later in life, she returned to a virtual campus to study The Grief Recovery Method: the only evidence-based grief recovery program in the world. As a lifelong student, Judy has also studied crystal healing, mediumship, and spirituality.

 

For pet families, Judy brings her Grief Recovery expertise to veterinary practices and their patients. Much of her professional career was spent working side by side with her husband managing a beloved veterinary practice that cared for thousands of pets over many years. When a social worker for its grief support group called in sick, Judy took over permanently. Now as a certified End-of-life Pet Doula deeply experienced with veterinary services, Judy supports animal companion professionals, individuals, and families transformed by a pet's unconditional love.
