I have found myself "remembering" and reflecting on my cherished discoveries over the weeks since completing it. I have not been burdened by guilt over the "Sorrys" and "Should haves" I dealt with, only feel better prepared for my relationships moving forward.

David was always listening, reflective, sensitive, and patient with each one of us. He was also transparent about his own struggles, which I appreciated. His feed back and insights were well received and welcome. I believe David is in the right role in helping all of us who have big hearts for furry friends. I will be continuing to reflect and process the systems and hope to find more peace of mind and completion of my work in the future. The group process is most helpful in that we get to pour out our hearts to others who can truly identify with our loss. GRS is one very good place to find the help we need. Thank you.

The facilitator was awesome. I would highly recommend her to others dealing with grief and loss. She has had such a positive impact on my life.

Louise Griffey is a compassionate and empathetic grief specialist who lead me through the steps and work needed to process the devastating and traumatic loss of my pet. I have completed the valuable 6 week program and I now have the tools to work through other losses. I know she is there to provide support when I need it again.

Natalie was so kind and gentle with my feelings. I probably used 1,000 tissues, and I never made it more than 5 minutes without crying. She helped me to heal from the guilt I felt about losing my cat, and I am forever grateful for her making this opportunity available to me in my area. I drove an hour every week for my class with her, and I looked forward to it every week.

I was glad Natalie was able to do a one on one session with me. I got scared to go to the class because I didn't want other people to judge me. I don't know if any would have but I was embarrassed about my grief. Natalie was able to give me a safe space. As she said she met me where I was at emotionally. Recommend!!

The facilitator had great compassion and was able to relate to us all. I feel better prepared for experiencing my dogs passing (near future) then I was before taking the class.

Louise showed great empathy and guided me through the programme with skill and support. It has made a huge difference to my life.

Louise's personal experiences and the way she talks about her own loss closely mirrors how I felt, and so it made me feel that no matter what I said I would be understood. I like that at the start of every session she would ask us about challenges and wins, although sometimes I didn't think I had anything in a category. I might have liked more chances to speak about our feelings, even though that isn't a step in the program.

Andi is exactly as the initial review stated that led me to work with her in the first place: she is an angel on earth! Her heart, the empathy with which she leads - and the just absolute care she takes with your heart - is just unlike any any other I've experienced. I'm so thankful to have had the opportunity to work with her through this program. She holds space for you, and it's very clear from the very first meeting. God bless you always, Andi.

I had a very difficult time following the loss of my dog. Traditional counseling didn't seem to help. After a lot of searching online, I found TGRM specifically for pet loss. I am so grateful for this resource and wish I had known about it earlier in life. I think every veterinarian office should have information on this incredible resource.

The book was helpful but without the facilitators it would not have helped me with my grief. I found the homework challenging but it was what helped me to create my letter to Banjo and provide me with some closure. Thank you

The grief recovery method navigated and supported a journey I had to take from pet carer to pet loss. It gave me the strength to hold difficult conversations and make decisions that needed to be made, although heartbreaking and painful. It allowed me to more fully embrace to support and kindness from friends, family and colleagues and make positive steps to remember my dog in happier times.
