Kerry Malak, PGRS-C
Certified Pet Loss Grief Recovery Specialist
Reiki Master /Teacher
NBCAAM Board Certified Small Animal Acupressure Practitioner
Certified Animal Massage Therapist
It all started with a little bulldog named Georgia Penelope Wigglebottom. My Heart Dog. My Soul Pet. She came into my life and changed it forever with her unconditional love...
An experienced Pet Loss Support Facilitator, Reiki Master/Teacher, and Small Animal Acupressure Practitioner, I am committed to helping people and pets discover a holistic approach to coping with the stresses and challenges of life in order to become healthier and happier both physically and mentally.
My journey as a Pet Loss Support Facilitator and Reiki Practitioner began after experiencing the loss of my own soul pet, Georgia, to cancer in 2006 at only 5 years old. Georgia's year-long battle with cancer prompted a deep dive into holistic health and wellness for both people and pets that has become an ongoing passion. In 2021, after completing the Tallgrass Animal Acupressure training program, I became nationally board certified in Small Animal Acupressue through NBCAAM.
I am a strong advocate for self-care techniques such as Reiki and Mindfulness to help any individual improve their quality of life and physical and mental health. I especially enjoy helping pet parents ar those who work in the veterinary field or human healthcare. Only by caring for our own wellbeing can we find the strength to keep helping others.
I feel especially privileged to be able to work with pet parents who are navigating chronic illness or end-of-life decisions with their pets and to support them after the loss of a beloved animal family member. My goal is to help them fully honor the bond they share and to find their way through grief toward healing. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to witness how even the most profound grief or traumatic loss can be survived and transformed into healing through the power of compassionate support and understanding.
I currently work in the veterinary field at a small animal practice and am a Certified Pet Loss Support Specialist through the Association for Pet Loss and Bereavement. I served on the APLB's volunteer staff facilitating online pet loss chats for nearly 15 years. I am also a Certified Pet-Loss Grief Recovery Specialist through the American Academy of Grief Counseling. I am trained in Animal Hospice and Palliative care as well as Human-Animal Bond Certified through NAVTA.
While I'm located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin I enjoy working with people from around the country. I especially loves connecting with other pet parents who love their pets as much as I adore my English Bulldogs, Duncan, Bruno & Wanda. Thank you for visiting Soulpet Healing & Hospice and please let me know how I can support you in your journey!
