Explore below to learn more about the diverse range of clients we are committed to supporting.
Animal Assisted Telehealth Therapy
Through telehealth, we offer both Animal-Assisted Therapy (AAT) and Animal-Assisted Interventions (AAI). These sessions can be tailored to your needs, whether that means having your own pet join you on camera to aid in emotional regulation or incorporating images and live streams of animals. Additionally, our GOC family includes two rescue dogs (Laszlo and Sasha) and two cats (Ash and Lucius) who are available to participate in your sessions upon request. Find out more about the GOC family here.
Pet Loss & Bereavement
Loss touches all of us in different ways, whether it’s the passing of a cherished person or the loss of a beloved family pet. The pain is real, and it deserves compassionate care. We offer specialized counseling for animal loss, providing support to help you navigate your grief and begin the healing process.
Veterinary Professionals & Support Staff
Mental health in the veterinary field is a critical issue that too often goes unaddressed. A 2019 study by the Centers for Disease Control revealed that veterinarians are two to four times more likely to die by suicide than the general population. At GOC, we are committed to changing this narrative. We offer dedicated counseling services for veterinarians and veterinary support staff, debriefing and peer support groups to help veterinary professionals process challenging events, and foster resilience.

About Me
Welcome to Good Omen Counseling LLC!
My name is Amanda Peritore, and I am a licensed clinical social worker located in Upstate South Carolina. I specialize in veterinary social work, a unique field that allows me to work in the sacred space where humans and animals meet; particularly during pet loss and bereavement. I wholeheartedly understand that losing a pet can be just as painful, if not more so, than losing a close person in your life. I focus on honoring grief and shame, creating a safe and supportive environment for healing.
I work with individuals and organizations to help define and achieve personal and professional goals. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, and I frequently use therapies such as TF-CBT, ACT, DBT, and ART to issues surrounding trauma, self-worth, self-compassion, stress, and anxiety, and interpersonal relationships.
I am especially dedicated to supporting frontline workers, veterinary professionals, and those in high vicarious trauma fields. My goal is to help these professionals develop the skills necessary to prioritize their own well-being and leverage those skills to build a better system for all.
“All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish
the light of a single candle.”
