Program really provided me an understanding of myself and how I was handling my grief. This program assisted me in pulling out the grief I had shoved way down inside me and taught me how to keep the good memories going and crying is ok for when I my heart hurts.

The Grief Recovery Method was easy to learn and apply--because of the empathy and expertise of my facilitator. I appreciated my facilitator's sensitivity, compassion, life experience, and guidance during my first grief recovery journey. I feel lighter emotionally than I have in 35 years since losing my big brother to an aggressive leukemia.

I lost my 24-year-old sister to alcoholism back in February 2021, and have struggled to cope with the finality of her death. My mother started working with a Grief Recovery facilitator and encouraged me to do the same, and I'm so glad that I did. The coursework made me take a much deeper look at my relationship with my sister, which helped me realize the things I had been holding onto - guilt, things left unsaid, things I wish I had done or not done. I expected the work to be mostly one-on-one talk therapy sessions about the pain of losing a loved one, but it was so much more than that. I am so grateful that I made the decision to use the Grief Recovery Method in coping with the loss of my sister.

The program helped me through the worst time of life, dealing with the loss of my son. Mr. Maxi, was very thoughtful, patient, understanding and demonstrated high level of genuine care for my loss.

The Grief Recovery Method was very informative and deep. My loss was very very significant but was given the tools to manage and truly recover. The sessions were overwhelming and painful but there was some relief after the expressions from the heart. I am pleased that I was able to read the book that was written by real people with real experiences. Excellent programme I would recommend.

This program is desperately needed in our culture. We have been taught to "handle" grief in ways that not affective. Through this program, I was able to resolve so many of the negative emotional ties to the loss of my son. I still grieve his death, but I was able to forgive, be forgiven and reconcile anything that was unresolved. What I'm left with is only the loss; the grief and the pain of it all, but without all of the exacerbating factors that intensify and make the pain unbearable. Crystal Givens is an absolute master at doing what she does. With a huge heart, a brilliant mind, life changing curriculum and a truly empathic mind, she is a slam dunk for this program! Do NOT hesitate. I you have experienced grief, loss or traumatic events in your life, you need this! Here's a hint, EVERYONE HAS! This will teach you to resolve and process in a much healthier and life supporting way.

I came to The Grief Recovery Program more interested in learning about the program than in dealing with a particular loss I have had. I have had much loss in my life. Family members, dear friends, jobs, a way of life, dear pets that were like children and many other losses. I have always confronted loss in a truthful way. In a very real way I have owned my truth in dealing with loss. I have always had, and still do, an ongoing relationship with those people and things that I have lost. Conversations with loved ones who have passed have kept me close with them. That being said, I never thought of this program to deal with loved ones that are still alive. This is exactly where the program took me and exactly what I needed. Kristy and I shortly found out during the program that my relationships with those I've lost was pretty healthy. What she helped me to see, was I needed a bit of work with the relationship with my mom. I love my mom! She is an amazing woman and she has spent her life taking care of others. Through The Grief Recovery Program I realized that my relationship was strained for me. I would think to myself, "I love my mom, BUT". I never knew what those feelings were or meant. Now because of TGRP and my amazing facilitator Kristy, I no longer feel the heaviness of the "BUT". I feel lighter and know my relationship can only become stronger. Kristy is amazing! She helped me to speak my truth, which at times, was extremely difficult. I knew I could trust her with everything I was feeling and saying. She gave me a safe environment to feel all of the feels without feeling like I was being judged. By the end of the program I felt and feel lighter, freer and stronger. Kristy is compassionate, caring, very knowledgeable and someone I feel I will always trust as my facilitator. This program was not easy, but I would recommend it to anyone that has feelings of loss. It gives you the chance to say what you need to say. It heals your soul. I completely recommend Kristy Anderson as a facilitator and will always consider her a friend. Thank you, thank you, thank you Kristy!!! I no longer feel the "BUT" and can love my mom for just being my mom!

Ellen gave me the freedom to explore areasI had kept inside and never realized until Ellen guided me so skillfully bring to the surface. Ellen gave me the opportunity to explore and delve hard and hidden purposes. Ellen helped me put to rest a fraught relationship with love and forgiveness.

I learned how to process losses and can continue using what I learned for other losses in my life. The program has been an asset in feeling more empowered to embrace grief rather than bury it or even run from it.

It wasn’t easy work-but necessary-and I really wasn’t sure what to expect. I understand the method and its effectiveness and will use the information to address further issues with grief and loss.

Для меня программа - простой и доступный инструмент избавится от накопившихся негативных чувств, от камней которые долго носила в себе, освободиться, чтоб жить радостной и наполненной жизнью. Инструмент работает и это понимаешь после первого же письма, после того как ты для себя формулируешь какие чувства я чувствую, что конкретно причиняет мне боль, вспоминаешь светлые моменты, вспоминаешь в чем я была не права - отпускает и картинка отношения к человеку причинившему тебе боль меняется с черной на более светлую, вместо боли начинаешь чувствовать благодарность.

Я шла с одним запросом, но в итоге получила ответ/взгляд на огромный спектр моей жизни. Благодарна Татьяне за профессиональную поддержку. Я научилась смотреть на потери по другому и нашла для себя путь как отпускать боль и тяжелые ситуации. Программа помогла мне увидеть то, что я не видела раньше. Это ценно! Спасибо.
