Grief Support Groups
Grief Support Groups
The Grief Recovery Method Support Group offers a safe, evidence-based environment for individuals navigating grief, no matter the type of loss they have experienced. These groups are led by chris, a certified grief recovery method specialist, providing expert guidance to support you throughout your healing journey.
Grief is emotional, not logical
Loss can stem from various experiences—whether it’s the death of a loved one, a divorce, the end of a romantic relationship, or any of the forty other losses one might face, such as moving, pet loss, or financial changes. Regardless of the cause, we understand that the feelings associated with grief are often overwhelming and painful.
No one will ever know how you feel, because no one truly can. Chris provides a compassionate and supportive environment where you can access specific tools to help you recover from your loss and ultimately lead a happier life.
The Grief Recovery Method Support Group
Grief is a natural emotional response to loss, yet most of what we learn about it is intellectual. While our grief support groups include educational components, effective recovery requires addressing your emotional pain. Our approach prioritizes emotional support over mere explanations.
What is the Grief Recovery Method® Support Group?
Our grief support groups provide a safe space to examine your beliefs about dealing with loss, identify which losses have impacted your life, and take actionable steps toward resolving the emotions that may still be causing you pain.
Action-based approach
The program includes reading and writing assignments outlined in newest edition of "The Grief Recovery Handbook".
Structured format
Participation is through either an 8-week group or a 7-week one-on-one format, depending on your preference and availability.
Expert facilitation
Each group is facilitated by Chris, a certified grief recovery specialist, who's goal is to help others heal.
Personal focus on you
You will learn about various types of loss and choose the specific loss you want to address during the program and heal yourself.
