The program has changed the way that I deal with grief. I do not use a S.T.E.R.B to deal with loss. In addition, I really have embraced taking 1% responsibility for how I deal with loss.

When I began this program I was lost and frozen in the loss of my Husband. While it will be a work in progress as time goes on, I am now able to feel like I have the skills to navigate this path. I don’t feel so afraid of the future now. I know I will OK.

This book and program helped to validate and verbalize many of the feelings that I was having in my grief. It was extremely helpful to be able to categorize my actions and emotions into learned behaviors, sturbs, etc. In gaining these tools I am able to work through past and current losses and I know that they will help me process grief better in the future.

Knowing what I now know, I will be better equipped to work through my relationships with the many more people that are no longer in my life. Dawn was very patient with me as I was also trying to process my husband being placed in hospice during the time in her group. A much needed tool for me and I’m very thankful I stuck with it.

The program has worked so well for me, people often ask how I am doing so well since my husband of 30 years recently passed. ( My final day in class was 10/19 and my husband died 12/10). I first told them my faith first and then shared how I’m using the tools given me in the Grief Recovery Program. Then we chat more about it.

Going through the letters and talking about the pain and the joy was beneficial to my saying goodbye to the hurt.

This program gave me tools to deal with current grief and loss and I will use them again to go through more past hurt and loss. By the end of the program it was very enlightening like a weight has been lifted.

I never knew just how much I needed this program. I thought I was just going to deal with my dad's death, finally, and be done. I was so wrong! Through this program, I realized I have so much more that I need to work through. Now I have the confidence and the tools to do the work that needs to be done for complete healing. I am so grateful that I've been introduced to the Grief Recovery Method. This program has completely changed my life!

I did not know what to expect. I have quite alot of experience with Therapists and leave feeling as if I spilled private emotions to a stranger and got no where. This gave me tools that I can use to help myself. I would highly recommend The Grief Recovery course.

This program has helped me because I was able to let go of things I'd be holding on with the person I was grieving. I couldn't even figure out why I was so unsettled until going through these steps. It was very practical and cohesive.

The program is helpful. I am grateful. Due to the problem I was able to lay aside every weight and the sin that so easily besets me.

I went in with the loss of my mom. I ended up dealing with the loss of my Pastors. It allowed me to tell them how I felt. I became stronger by working the program steps. I came in broken and left stronger.

It has worked well. I feel like I’ve gotten better at communicating my feelings and also of just being able to feel what I need to feel.

This class has showed me how to come to peace with the death of my Father. As I went through this class it helped me to feel comfortable to talk with others, now I feel at peace with the death, I would recommend this class to everyone who is going through grief.

Participating in the Grief Recovery Program reading the Grief Recovery Handbook and completing the weekly homework showed me how to embrace, identify, and dissect the areas of my grief and taught me how to develop a plan for me to move forward and eventually recover from my loss.

I clicked on “Outstanding” and ALL the “stars” lit up. This program Grief Recovery was and has been the BEST that I’ve ever participated. I’ve been in a few groups but it was not a good fit for me. I felt very confident with the facilitator that I never thought that I would be able to open up about my life; about the trauma, the pain, the hurt, the betrayal however, I was able to get beyond my “stuck” point and was able to receive a breakthrough. Although it was a small group of 7 people it was refreshing the level of respect that we had for each other that we were able to share without the feeling of being judged. I would highly recommend this class for anyone who is experiencing any loss.

This program allowed me to be open and honest about issues I have been holding in for my entire life. I have learned to look at and process my grief properly. What’s more, the small-group aspect of the work was immensely comforting. I can only hope that my listening, my channeling of my best heart-with-ears self was as helpful for the small group as it was for me.

The eight week group session gave me an opportunity o identify areas of my grief/loss that I otherwise not realized. For example, I learned that while I didn't understand why I was not feeling anything but constantly going over painful events it was because I was numb. Also, graphing my events gave me the opportunity to not only write but to see the events and the impact that the events has on my life.
