The Grief Recovery Method
Discover more about the different types of loss including the common myths and misinformation that prevent so many from taking the necessary action. The Grief Recovery E-book is complimentary.
The Grief that comes with any emotional loss can be overwhelming and isolating.
You may have discovered those you normally count on for emotional support are at a total loss when it comes to offering effective and meaningful assistance. Often well-meaning family and friends will give logical reasons why you should not feel bad, but that rarely helps. Saying things like time heals or he/she is in a better place are not helpful in reducing the emotional pain you are experiencing. Grief is emotional and not logical. Your heart is broken, and often intellectual statements offered to comfort can actually cause more pain and suffering.
The fact that you’re here and gathering information is encouraging. The first step is always taking action.
Congratulations, well done!

FAQ
What is The Grief Recovery Method® program?

During each session, you’ll be welcomed into a confidential, non-judgmental space where you’ll be expected to share the truth of your story as it happened to you. You’ll also be expected to complete weekly reading and homework assignments.
From me, you can expect open ears and an open heart ready to receive your story. I’m also available to answer logistical questions about the program.
