Grief Recovery Workshop

The Action Program for Moving Beyond Death, Divorce, and Other Losses

Myths about grief:

  • Time heals all wounds

  • Replace the loss

  • Grieve alone

  • Be strong for others

  • Bury your feelings

Your feelings are normal and natural. The problem is that we have been socialized to believe that these feelings are abnormal and unnatural.

Whether your loss is from:

  • Death 

  • Divorce or the end of a relationship

  • Loss of a career

  • Loss of trust

  • Loss of faith

  • Loss of safety

  • Loss of health

The 8-Week Program* is your answer.

People say you have to let go and move on in your life, but they don’t tell you what you need to do to accomplish that. The Grief Recovery Method® Outreach Workshop makes that possible and provides partnerships and guidance to ensure that it happens. *Not a drop-in group.
