Melissa and Karen were both wonderful facilitators. They created a safe, comforting and welcoming environment for the class to learn and work through our grief.

the program allowed me to close doors on a past relationship. What's even better, it has given me the tools to manage through future situations that have the potential to take me to that dark place again. The Grief Recovery program has given me a sense of relief and empowerment that I haven't felt in many years.

Helped me to have another tool to use in my life
Support Groups06/13/2023Participant in Auburn, Ca
It showed me how to completely process the suicide of a close family member. I was able to say good bye and have completeness. I also learned that I have experienced more losses and grief that I didn't think were. We all process grief differently and we are on our own journey through it.
Support Groups06/13/2023Participant in Tulsa, OK
I was kind of shocked at the number of losses that I have experienced, 3 of which were suicides. I had an extremely hard time coping with one loss in particular a few years back and having a chance to explore and complete that relationship was healing for me. We are societized and conditioned in many unhelpful ways and to unlearn some of those behaviors and find a better way helped me alot. I think learning GRM will help me cope with future losses. I had a very wise woman tell me after the death of my first parent to be gentle with yourself and those around you as grieving is hard work. She was correct and that pearl of wisdom to be more gentle, coming from someone I love and respect was a wonderful insight.

Because I did not work on the recent loss of my husband I feel that I have more work to do but I can see that dealing with past grief is helpful to me
Support Groups06/13/2023Participant in Newport, RI
I was shocked at how many losses I have actually experienced and 3 suicides in the mix. After one specific death, I had a very hard time coping and had to take an extended period of time off of work and just wasn't functioning very well. This program helped me understand that we all have been societized to bury our feelings or to not take the time needed to complete our relationships and the affect of this often causes real problems and negative outcomes. I think it will help me deal with future losses and be a better listener...a heart with ears.

This program taught me to look at grief in a different way than I had before- there are specific components that I can control when I was feeling out of control.

Julie was wonderful, always there with a hug, a kind word or a tissue! She made me feel at ease instantly and allowed me to open up in a way I find difficult to do with other people.

Literally this program was a life saver. Never have I ever been in such a low place. I experienced so many overwhelming emotions and physical side effects that I was scared. I was scared for my sanity and well being. Learning about grief and how it takes on different forms mentally, physiologically and physically and how to counter it all made sense. Thank you.

The program made me feel "normal" and helped me understand my grief. My grief was not just one thing----it was sooooo many things combined. Margie did an amazing job help me work through all my feelings.

I can very much appreciate and see the value of the process. I did not get the completion I was looking for because I’m dealing with different kinds of grief and loss due to events of loss resulting in a loss of faith, not addressed in these 8 weeks.
