The name says it all; experiencing fatigue while being compassionate toward others. Compassion fatigue describes the negative physical, emotional, and psychological effects on caregivers, in direct response to the care they are providing for animals. https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/types-of-grief-and-loss daily 0.75 2022-04-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641711329819-RF0LGQA2JOG778W7AZBK/unsplash-image-jYbKxinWQGk.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641711345443-ULN8PT6MLP4OJINKVPSO/unsplash-image-jYbKxinWQGk.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1604811738006-YJE926UMC7MH7FNL3FNM/IMG_20200428_172200+%281%29.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641967986436-NTDZZVRFQ86M7Z4TWYIR/unsplash-image-PcKhVNNyEio.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641968013624-7S7OBKTAGBX2Z89LR3K2/unsplash-image-IxejHK_ToZA.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641968140028-X6P8S6CRV62RRZ7N93HT/unsplash-image-fvl4b1gjpbk.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641968235908-VX41WRHL2PTXUKY5P884/unsplash-image-FTzRYeD5lAs.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641968305626-BWAF1B2DXWAR6IATTGB3/unsplash-image-do0KG7sLttM.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641968360538-79VI8EJEBYAHYXQJM4ED/unsplash-image-cQ-66Evaf5g.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1604812665521-IFGB1AH7Y1W078FR5NWY/erda-estremera-BGLdeLFuGfs-unsplash.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1644553938443-W99D0RSGNA8F5IUWWAKE/unsplash-image-YCPkW_r_6uA.jpg Types of Grief & Loss https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/our-mission daily 0.75 2022-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/dc6d00e9-06a0-48e5-9c54-43b20a1c8c09/Rainbow+Bridge+-+final.png Our Mission https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/contact daily 0.75 2022-11-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/4abb32fa-ca9e-4499-9591-1b5c6dc148e0/Rainbow+Bridge+-+final.png Contact - Contact me Kelly Gendreau LMFT#129357 Call/Text: (562) 740-8062 Email: kelly@rainbowbridgehealing.com https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/how-we-help daily 0.75 2022-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg How We Help https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg How We Help https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641711262796-UJ2EOJN44EKW057UDJNZ/unsplash-image-jYbKxinWQGk.jpg How We Help https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/services daily 0.75 2024-01-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641712499377-0RBZ2T3DB99OUK07XEAW/unsplash-image-WJ6fmN1D-h0.jpg Services - Individual Sessions I offer 50-minute individual therapy sessions via telehealth (secure video chat) to children, adolescents, and adults who reside in the states of California and Florida.

I graduated from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona with my M.S. in Psychology, emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy, in 2017. I began working at a children's outpatient clinic, assisting at-risk children and their families. In early 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, I started working at two veterinary hospitals for a few months. I worked at a hybrid 24-hour emergency hospital as a receptionist and then a general practice hospital as a surgery prep assistant. The meaning behind my employment in the veterinary field was two-fold. One, to follow my other passion, my love for animals and the humans who care for them, and two, to get hands-on experience in the veterinary field (especially during a world-wide pandemic) to gain better insight for the profession and to further build empathy for those in the field; enabling me to assist them on a different level today as a pet loss/grief and compassion fatigue specialist. Being an animal lover all of my life and having started my own 501(c)3 non-profit animal rescue organization in 2007, I have strong insight into the loss and grief of pets, as well as the impacts compassion fatigue can have on individuals. Taking my education and experience as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and combining it with my many years of pet ownership/parenting, animal caregiving, and rescue volunteering, I am excited to have this opportunity to work with others who may have traveled a similar path and/or have experienced similar situations. Throughout my lifetime, I have been a pet parent to cats, dogs, horses, pigs, rodents, reptiles, birds, and wildlife (rehabilitation). I am a current pet parent to cats, horses, pigs, two lizards, and a dog. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/df743e4b-4a7f-4eda-9a5b-a958e4925b76/Cert+Grief+Couns.png About Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/19fd5be0-a6a4-4e6c-9ebf-80e4a5d1aafe/Cert+Compassion+Fatigue.png About Me https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/faq daily 0.75 2022-12-30 https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/nomv daily 0.75 2022-01-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1641967383320-F2NPYPXMH4PX3EB1H7N4/unsplash-image-4qHWTuP_RLw.jpg NOMV “NOMV is the leader in veterinary mental health and will transform the status of mental wellness within the profession so veterinary professionals can survive and thrive through education, resources, and support.” (NOMV, 2022) https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/resources daily 0.75 2022-02-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/6ccb4641-8b5d-4fbe-80df-5c2314325a88/61RPIjNB1sS._SY471_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/327744dd-8295-4dfd-b33d-ff575fe4204f/51YL1l-7YoL._SX495_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_+%281%29.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/db5ee4eb-2920-4d94-8f82-a975729819a5/51YSBu46hJL._SX386_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/08b44bbe-a635-4dea-b1aa-640a3b4fd28e/51NZZFJtqWL._SX383_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/297e8124-fd64-40c7-8786-03c9cdfd8216/51LKJDEieEL._SX258_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/7c2fb6bc-c776-4403-bdd8-fb414a789634/41hT%2B6V3-yL._SY378_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/3160ec3a-973b-401a-99a3-8e1dea4c800f/51BZEKhWBmL._SX367_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/7cf0be2c-759e-4d89-b5f9-4a764287fdeb/61RZ0yfZi5L._SX258_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/2b6beb5a-90ff-4b9d-a42b-d61d925f0356/415T-UWvDML._SX322_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/2ce6c33b-6ee6-48f5-afe8-823030c70f4c/418MTEYA1TL._SX331_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/7c195478-ab88-4746-8edd-50177e66d432/51EtUrZ3zUL._SX331_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/4c61313c-15e5-460d-8efb-066aa5c9d3f0/51ZZR4XQKaL._SX331_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Resources https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/privacy-policy daily 0.75 2022-01-16 https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/support-groups daily 0.75 2022-03-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/9200d9f8-3fe9-4b87-9230-52ce8c363701/Screenshot_20220305-224817_2.png Support Groups https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/additional-services daily 0.75 2022-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1647233989967-G556XUYVGKISOBQ92AON/unsplash-image-EBB45rCSjrU.jpg Additional Services - Individual Therapy Sessions for Loss & Bereavement In addition to offering pet loss/grief and compassion fatigue therapy, I offer support for all other types of losses. Whether you have lost a family member or friend, experienced a job loss, divorce, move of homes, or have gone through one of the many other types of loss individuals can experience during their lifetime, support is available. Experiencing a loss can often leave individuals feeling broken, misunderstood, lost, and alone, especially if their loss is not taken seriously by others around them. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment for grievers to explore their losses, process emotions, identify healthy coping skills, and make meaning of their losses experiences. Taking the first step by reaching out for support can help you work through your grief, to not feel so “stuck” and to begin the healing process from your loss. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/1647234015747-3DMBNMCIJP0V4ER6NYZ1/unsplash-image-q6e4zwgtUcM.jpg Additional Services - Getting Support Grief comes in many different shapes and forms, and no two people’s grieving process looks exactly the same. We will work together to develop a treatment plan that fits your grieving style, needs, and cultural/religious/spiritual beliefs to promote healing. https://rainbowbridgehealing.com/pet-memorial daily 0.75 2022-03-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/a62231da-b4a0-4028-bea2-68e9682adfe5/Image-1%281%29.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/7662c7e6-2fdc-4762-9f29-88a44976e9af/FB_IMG_1509886573292.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/6c62bf90-555c-4177-ae98-729319a0f73b/IMG_20200416_230536.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/fd218d2f-c8a3-469c-9262-07db497a19e9/FB_IMG_1647402382404.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/e1f7011e-e39a-46c9-b6b1-c3717cc3a6ad/IMG_20200702_172433.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/542e3136-1d46-407f-a163-fe431ae62c2a/FB_IMG_1647402406282.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/bc2274f8-566b-49ed-a6eb-31efdbf1b780/IMG_20180513_142516.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/871f4aa5-e883-45e7-8680-5fdfaa567801/FB_IMG_1503122615288.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/a45f92e7-3e60-49b1-8a91-305dffbdc6f7/FB_IMG_1506078374619.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/82efe55c-6825-4a0a-88f5-4a6f12e5ce25/FB_IMG_1640227555856.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/ba01a630-e5a6-42cf-87ed-81df3d95524b/FB_IMG_1506078420816.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/d6a7c72c-0d7c-49c9-8088-2671524b0fc2/FB_IMG_1647402994102.jpg Pet Memorial Page https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa764c5a3f03b5541c82117/46c84279-748a-4016-96c7-ec4c57574efd/IMG_20171223_165427.jpg Pet Memorial Page
