Testimonials For Support Groups
I have been so heartbroken after loosing my daughter. After doing The Grief Recovery Method I was able to say goodbye to all the uncomplete feels I hadn't dealt with. I still miss Kimmy so much, but I know that I can now just love and miss the daughter who I love so much without the regrets and things that were not said. Thank you for giving me the strength to move on and work on who I am now. Karen

This program has taught be many life skills, including listening without comment to encourage the speaker, Loss History Graphs, Relationship Graphs, STERBs, and more! It is encouraging to realize that endless Relationship Graphs can be made to Apologize to, Forgive, and formulate Significant Emotional Statements (SES) to people with major impact on our lives.

It has helped tremendously in healing my relationship with my Mother who has passed away.

I didn't realize how many losses I had until I graphed my life losses. It was very revealing. I based my relationship graph on the death of my dog, which morphed into a lifetime of issues involved with my M. I was astonished at the feelings it brought back.....but I believe it is now healed. I was very reluctant to complete this course because of fear that all those feelings would come back to stay. I am glad I faced my fears and completed the program. I know I have a lot of hard work yet to do. I must comment on the writing of the book......extremely well done, thorough, well researched, genuine. Thank you.

i got the most out of doing the history loss and relationship graph and completion letter. until we got to that part, i felt like the information was a little basic and elementary to other work i had done prior to the group.

This program helped me realize there were many losses in my life that I had not addressed. There were many things I wish had been better. I was able to review my life in the LHG and reflect on particular parts of my life and relationships. The Relationship Graph, Recovery Components and the letter were extremely helpful in allowing me to acknowledge what had happened in my past, and work on releasing the pain, so I can move forward in peace.

It has allowed me to tie up the loose ends of my grief and relationship with my Father. Now onto my beloved wife.

The program has helped me recognize that grief is not abnormal. Having good and bad feelings after a loss are all completely normal. I am more prepared to face my negative feelings and be able to handle them as they come up. I feel well equipped to recognize avoidant behaviors that I have, and I realize now that avoiding my feelings of grief will only cause them to get worse. I feel much better since my loss. I think completing my relationship with the person I lost has helped me recognize how lucky I am.

It helped me move past a very negative relationship from the past and see how it effected me they the years after.

It has not only helped me but now I have a better understanding of how many types of grief there are and how I can help others.
Support Groups10/29/2019Participant in Nixa, Mo
I realized when going through the program, and while doing my grief timeline, how different events in my life effected me and I could look back and see where I was coping with my grief by using STERBS. Now that I have the tools to effectively cope with grief I can kick the STERBS to the curb.

This program helped me recognize grief I didn't even know I had, and then gave me a process for dealing with it. I felt that our facilitator, Cynthia Zink, was well-prepared and well-suited to guide us through the process. I have felt grief was a very private thing, but after experiencing these processes together with a group and a guide, I have a whole new experience with grief recovery.
