It has been a very eye opening experience!!! I was glad to learn I am not broken or damaged. I'm completely normal. We have been given misinformation our whole lives, and in just 8 weeks of true commitment to yourself, without quitting, because you want too! It's hard, but worth it! I was given the tools needed to clean out all the pain in my heart. That is not to say it won't come back or happen again, but NOW I have the ability too work through the anger, hurt and pain, and make more room in my heart for future love, joy, and happiness! I'm looking forward to the new memories I plan on making, and getting to know and like and accept the new me. I'm grateful for this amazing opportunity. I was given a life long gift, that I will treasure forever. Thank You, and God bless! Tammi Risse Successfully completed Grief Recovery Class 2019

At one point I held back and she pushed me gently and it worked for me. I ended the program feeling more complete and more satisfied. It was a good group to work in.

As I spoke with my facilitator I was against the word "grief" not really understand why the word bothered me so much but after taking the class, my facilitator explain to me because I correspond the word grief with death and how I was raised to believe the word grief goes with death.and nothing else so that made sense to me. Bertha is very genuine when it comes to others and their feelings my group was very understanding and when I say there was no judgement here honestly I can say there was no judgement at all.

I feel like I gained a whole new way of managing grief and the skills to listen. The facilitator showed great empathy which made space for me to open up. It was well worth the work I put in that will be paying dividends into the future. Thanks!
