Testimonials For Support Groups
Я очень рада быть на этом курсе и очень благодарна тем кто смог мне помочь быть здесь. Спасибо огромное всем благотворителям, потому что для меня этот курс имеет очень большое значение. Я очень много лет пыталась избавиться от боли потери своего любимого животного и сейчас я чувствую что этот процесс завершен и я где-то 5 лет не могла избавится от этой боли , я проходила очень многих психологов, я ходила на разные курсы , но мне ничего не помогало. Очень благодарна потому что я чувствую себя счастливой сейчас и сейчас когда я вспоминаю о своей собаке я чувствую радость. Когда я раньше вспоминала о своей собаке я чувствовала печаль и очень сильную боль, как- будто сердце изнутри разрывалось,а сейчас я думаю о своей собаке и вспоминаю все то хорошее что было с нами и ту боль которая была последний год я не вспоминаю.
Спасибо огромное вам за этот курс и за то что наконец-то я могу жить свободно и счастливо.Support Groups12/24/2022Participant in Kyiv,

В связи с войной, живём с мужем в разных странах, полностью поменялся привычный образ жизни. Я забираю с собой инструменты, помогающие проработать болезненные чувства и мысли и радость от того, что проработала отношения с мужем.

Я дякую за атмосферу яка у нас була в групі , яка була створена на зустрічах, це була атмосфера чесності, прийняття і конфіденційності. На кожній зустрічі я відчувала себе захищено та комфортно, що я можу ділитися своїми думками, відчуттями. Взагалі я прийшла на цю програму з очікуванням розібратись з одними втратами, але так вийшло що під час проходження занять я все ж вибрала відносини з близькою, важливою для себе людиною. Виконуючі всі послідовні завдання це дуже допомогло мені розібратися з біллю минулого і трішки по іншому подивитися взагалі на ці відносини і це допомогло мені зараз у відносинах з цією людиною, на даний момент.

До программы для меня это была буря эмоций часть из которых я осознавала а часть я не знала как с этим быть то благодаря программе я понимаю как я могу двигаться в этих отношениях. И это очень ценно потому что это очень близкий для меня человек , очень важный в моей жизни. Я хочу дальше строить с ним отношения, но те потери которые связывают наши отношения они делают эти отношения невозможными практически. А благодаря программе я могу иметь надежду на восстановление свое эмоциональное и на восстановление этих отношений.

The Grief Recovery Method, and Ms. Fischenich, helped me realize that I can move forward even if I don't have the answers for all my questions left by the death of my loved one. I don't need to be stuck. Thank you!

It helped me with my grief of the lost of my FATHER. And I also learned that there are different kinds of loss that i didn't know about..

Outstanding. I have learned so much from this program. I have also learned a lot about what to say and what NOT to say to those who are grieving. I will continue to ponder and process the concepts outlined in the book. I appreciate the focus on COMPLETING the grieving process, which enables the griever to move forward, rather than staying stuck in grief. This course is extremely practical, because every person faces grief and loss throughout their lives. This material is insightful and practical, and it is not something we are taught in the home or in school. I highly recommend this program.

When i started the program, i didn't understand what the outcome was supposed to be. i found the book interesting to read and the assignments interesting as well. in the end, i found information/tools to challenge me in a loss. i shall use these tools in the future.

This is just the beginning. I have worked through one loss but will use what I learned to address other losses. Next time I would like to devote more time that is needed to do this.

The program has given me tools to complete relationships that have knowingly or unknowingly weighed me down. It is very empowering and I am very grateful.

I was anxious to start the program, though hindsight is a great thing. If I had known how beneficial the program was going to be to me; how safe, supportive and special the journey and fellow journey takers would be to me - I would have left the anxiety at the door. The program takes you through brave steps and gives you time, tools and abilities to work on your grief, or the different grief weights you are carrying in the such a powerful way. Our facilitator was a calm, pillar of strength and example and guided us in a way that felt like she was holding our hand but lifting us up to do the important work we were there to do independently. Its a beautiful thing to feel so supported and so independent at the same time.

I had never heard of the Grief Recovery Method before I took part in the eight-week program. While I was dealing (or not dealing) with loss associated with bereavement I had not been looking for help at the time. The opportunity to take part in this course arose quite by chance but I took it gladly. I did not know what to expect but I found the facilitator, Louise Griffey, to be extremely professional, respectful, caring, honest and approachable. She guided me through all the steps of the program, explained all the main principles in depth, demonstrated these with her work on her own personal losses and answered any questions I had with patience and understanding. I found the completion of a loss-history graph to be an eye-opening experience and it enabled me to choose my first relationship to work on in depth. This turned-out to be different from the one I had initially selected. The work on the relationship graph helped me to identify both positive and negative experiences from my past which have affected me throughout my life in one way or another. While I cannot speak to the motivations of the person to whom this relates, it helped me to try to understand why they said or did the things they did and to realise the impact these had on me. I felt very privileged to be part of a small group of other women who shared their own losses with me. I looked forward to our Monday night meetings and felt that I was in a safe place with people I could trust and who listened to me with compassion and without judgement. I highly recommend this program to anyone suffering their own loss and I will be recommending my facilitator, Louise Griffey, to my family, friends and colleagues. I look forward to using the skills I have learnt to work on more of my own losses. Thank you for everything!
