It taught me a lot about short term energy relieving behaviors and it taught me how to control my anger and my depression instead of the other way around

I have learned to take 1% responsibility for all actions. I am learning to acknowledge people for what they have done that I appreciate and when I apologize I now aim to say exactly what I'm apologetic for and to be specific. I have learned that all grief is still deserves a voice. I now deal differently with people that are grieving.

This program is amazing. I met Kari Driskell online through Facebook and saw her transformation during her GRM process. When my mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer, I turned to Kari. She supported me during the treatment, the hospice, the death, and after. I am finally ok with my grief. It's ok to be sad. And it's ok to be happy.

It has been very helpful to understand the magnitude and frequency of the griefs that I have experienced, and that such is not normal. As I read the grief recovery book, I found the strategies to be uniquely helpful, but also that other typically experienced grief with a large amount of time in between, whereas that has not been the case with me. Lesleigh was fantastic as walking through the impact of this, while also giving each of them the time they deserved. I mention comparative frequency of griefs because its important to understand for reference, and that it was causational in the way I started to feel/behave for quite sometime - self-perspective is key. While we did not have the time to walk through each of them, we had enough time to touch up on all of them and work through the more significant ones in detail. Also, certain of these griefs were quite severe, so it was very helpful to have a person who is trained to understand them, and can introduce strategies on how to move forward. Lesleigh has been a great coach on these issues, and is also someone I now consider a friend.

This program worked for me because I put the work in. I have struggled for a very long time. Knowing Vicki was in my corner, that I could trust her, that I could open up to her, not be judged or shamed for my thoughts or feelings, and not be afraid to speak up, gave me the strength to work through this process with my whole heart. Vicki led me on a path of discovery. And that path was not easy. Things I hadn't realized, affected me much more than I thought. Vicki gave me a safe space to verbalize and work through my thoughts without judgment or advice on what to do next. She guided me through this process so I could gain clarity on what's next for me. And I'm proud and happy to say that I do have a clearer picture of what's next, something I've never been able to see. She helped me to realize that I'm not broken, that I am worthy. Vicki truly is a "heart with ears". I am deeply grateful for her, her kindness and caring, her patience and time, and I could never say thank you enough! This process is definitely worth the effort, the work and the time.

This program helped me to come to terms with the loss of my father. I am very happy to have taken this journey with Adrienne Mejias. She is an excellent therapist.

The Grief Recovery program was immensely helpful to me. My husband passed away very suddenly four months ago, and I was lost in trying to make my way through my grief. It was really easiest for me to just stay numb and not deal with it. Grief Recovery showed me how to grieve in a healthy way. By letting go of the past regrets and anger I am able now to move forward. I will always miss my husband and grieve his passing, but I have been able to say goodbye and hang on to the memories instead of the concerns. Grief Recovery is hard and painful (true grief isn't for sissies!), but it taught me how to be free of the emotions that distract from the sadness of my loss. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to learn from this method.

It made me reflect on all of the losses I have had in my lifetime. Having to list the good and the bad of the loved one, was time consuming, but it made me dig deep to lay it all out on the table. Kira stepped outside of the box and we talked about things that I may not have thought about without her guidance.

I came away from the program with a complete change of how I viewed my 40 year relationship with my deceased husband. I was able to see very clearly why I was feeling such a myriad of emotions. I was able to come to a place of understanding, clarity and compassion for myself, my husband and our marriage. I live in forgiveness and love for us both, today.

I chose a very intense, complicated, deeply painful, often daily wrought over loss to complete - that being the death of my father. I must say the tools in the TGRM were easy to learn in concept and were broken down perfectly in terms of emotional difficulty. Though I really struggled with and majorly dreaded reading my Completion Letter aloud - it was the very thing most critical to the completion of my cycle of sadness and longing. I have found in life that sometimes the hardest things - the things we most dread are so necessary for progress and growth (ugh!! - lol) For me, this process allowed me to systematically step through a tangled, wrought over, guilt ridden, scary bunch of emotions surrounding my relationship with my Dad and the sudden loss of him experienced in my home over 20 years ago. Being one week after of the last session, I feel lighter - I am thinking clearer and I am not as intensely sad as I had for so long...I AM SO THANKFUL!! I so agree, what you put into it, you will get out of it...The process works! Yes, it is hard, but I encourage you to give yourself the time and space to go deep and say all that needs to be said. As important and effective as the method, was the facilitator that guided me through the process - Kristy Anderson. Kristy has been someone who chose to step into my world of grief. Though others were put-off by my "years of deep sadness" and seemingly closed off stance - she chose to befriend me. She has a heart of empathy like no one I know and choses to love, care for and help those who are hurting and broken hearted. It was no surprise to me when she pursued becoming a facilitator for TGRM. I consider myself blessed to have been her pilot student. I chose a very intense and deeply painful loss to complete. I knew I could trust her and that I could see it through to completion with her love and guidance. Kristy is caring, deeply compassionate, trustworthy, knowledgeable and genuine. I believe she is meant for this and will offer many the opportunity to process, heal and emerge stronger. I am honored to call her my friend!

I completed the program last week. I feel as if I'm not carrying unfinished communications related to the relationship I addressed.

Not only was I able to deal with the grief I had unresolved, it also helped change my outlook towards others' personal issues, hidden or in plain sight. Thera did a phenomenal job, and I with the best for her and her future clients, of which she deserves many more.

It has been so helpful in terms of helping me put words to my feelings and thoughts about grief. I have learned lots of tools and information that I use on a regular basis to help me through the daily struggles of losing my parents.
One-on-One Support10/31/2020Participant in Murfreesboro, TN
The program was excellent for me. Not only did I learn strategies that I will use for the rest of my life/ experiences that I go through, but it helped me accept my past. I wanted to come out of the program feeling empowered and that is exactly how I feel every day now.

I would highly recommend Misty and the program to anyone suffering from grief. She listens with an empathic ear, understands your emotions and is with you compassionately as you move though the process of understanding your loss. I had lost a family member some years ago, and being a man, I thought I had to bottled up my feelings. I was introduced to Misty by a mutual friend and was set on path of working though my grief with weekly meetings and some personal reflections (homework). She guided me through the steps needed in a relativity short period of time and all at a reasonably cost. If you are suffering from any sort of loss that has affected your life, I sincerely would suggest to reach out to Misty.
