The certification training was phenomenal! Walking through the method myself and doing the personal work was priceless. I will continue to use the method to heal myself and I can't wait to help others. I'm finishing the training feeling confident and I know the method works!

I went through the GRM process three times with a friend before attending the training. Initially, I anticipated working on a group of related behaviors (specifically, bullies), but I soon realized that the process still required focusing on one individual at a time. During the training, I was also asked if there were any other family members or friends I needed to work with, so I chose to apply the process to my sibling. The results were truly surprising, as I experienced significant breakthroughs, healing, and relief. The effectiveness of the process was beyond what I expected, and I am incredibly grateful to be part of this community, learning valuable skills that will help others on their healing journey as well!

On the fence about becoming a certified Grief Recovery Specialist? If you want to help people heal from the pain of loss, then I can say with 100% confidence, both by doing the Grief Recovery Method myself, AND now being certified, that this training delivered the most professional, practical & precise information and tool out there for taking people from in pain & stuck to relieved and free. Definitely the best investment I me, and others, that i've ever made.

This training is absolutely life changing. I have done talk therapy, IFS and DBR and nothing has removed the pain from my loss like GRM has. I look forward to doing more work with this method on myself and helping others to do the same. Such a valuable tool
