https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/f/nonclinical-discussions/18854/pet-bereavement-counselling Hello, I have recently been thinking I would like to train up to do pet bereavement counselling, and there seem to be so many different course options available. Anybody have any opinions/advice on the best course?

I did my counselling training through night class over 3 yrs and some bereavement training through the charity CRUSE - only then did I start looking at pet bereavement. I started doing the SCAS course as a distance learning when I was working with the BX - to be &nbsp;honest I found it really heavy going, and not that useful to me and sadly gave up after completing a huge chunk of it. I have been following the Ralph site for &nbsp;a while - I think this is a really good idea and the originator has posted on here a few times if you do a search and I believe is offering some training in this area</p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Ralph-Site/220612867957250">https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Ralph-Site/220612867957250</a> </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
