Testimonials for our Certification Training Program
The Grief Recovery Specialist Training is well worth the time and financial commitment. Processing my own grief reminded me to continue working on my own losses and gave me tools to help others

To call this certification class "a positive experience" would be an understatement. Fellow classmates become lifelong friends and confidantes. The process is extraordinary, cathartic and important. I was skeptical at first but, I am a true believer. I can't wait to share with anyone and everyone!

The Certification training was life changing, emotional, powerful, profound and many new relationships and networking was established. I'm glad I pursued this.

Lois Hall is a gift, not only to the grief recovery community, but to the world. Her passion for helping others heal from loss and live a full live is contagious. After 14 years as a professional counselor, the grief recovery method is the best program I have discovered to help others connect with their heart again and heal from losses. I would not hesitate to recommend this training!

I would highly recommend the Grief Recovery Method Certification for anyone who works with people. I thought I was coming to learn about a program but I left with a new lease on life because of the process. The GRM is not about death; its about living fully.

The Grief Recovery Method is truly a life changing, value tool that will be an asset for any professional. I have several certifications and have taken numerous classes. The Grief Recovery Method Training is the most beneficial and can be applied to everyone. We all grieve.

I absolutely loved the experience of becoming a GRM specialist. I have felt immense growth in personal and professional from taking this training. I look forward to all the people I can help heal from this experience. I HIGHLY recommend taking this training course to anyone who deals with the loss of life or marriage within your career.

Going through the Grief Recovery Method training has been a very rewarding experience for me on a personal level. Doing the Loss History Graph, the Relationship Graph, the Final Statement, and the Completion Letter have worked wonders for my personal journey through my grief and loss. This is a program that I will recommend to every person who's dealing the many loss that life throws at us. If you are dealing with the challenges of your own personal loss - whatever those challenges may be - going through the Grief Recovery Method program will change your life, and help you to regain control of your everyday experiences.

My experience at the training was overwhelmingly positive. The trainer’s patience, compassion, and empathy with us, individually and as a unit, was in evidence all throughout the training. The emotional honesty each person shared turned 14 strangers into a family - I have never experienced this type of transformation so totally so quickly.

As a pastor, I had been using the Grief Recovery Handbook to help members of my church deal with death and divorce. (Even though the Handbook explicitly says not to - see page 2 - I apologize GRM!) I finally decided to get certified and was amazed at how much I still needed to learn as well as discover some of the mistakes I was doing in using the Method. On a personal note, taking the training revealed a blindspot to me that I was engaging in the Myth of "Be Strong for Others." As a pastor I am comfortable being there to support grievers, but never take the time to deal with my own grief. After 11 years of holding onto grief, I was finally able to feel safe enough share my emotions over the loss of my dad.

I have had the desire to take this Training Course for 7 years. But life and finances did not permit until now. Let me tell you, it was worth every penny spent and budget cut I took to make it! I honestly, cannot imagine, enjoying it any better, or learning what I hoped too. My Instructor (Bobbie Rill) was AMAZING! I truly feel confident in the process and in what I learned in just a few days, to carry this message forward to as many people as I can. The class time is well spent, the materials are presented with ease and if you have a willing heart, you will learn and gain much! ~ I came away READY to hold my First 8 Week Session ~ You Will Too!

Working with patient and family dealing with Chronic and Serious illness for 10 plus years, this method works if you are true to your self and follow it seriously!

Without a doubt this is a phenomenally effective method and a noble cause which I am honored to now be trained in. It helped me tremendously when nothing else has and I am so inspired and excited to be able to truly help others in the future.

I had a really good experience at my 4 day training. It was hard work and emotional but well worth the time and energy. It changed my life.

Provided coping tools to understand the grief process and start living life again instead of merely existing.

I found the Grief Recovery Method Training to be applicable, genuine and very helpful. I wish I had found this program 20 years ago when my Dad died, it could have spared me years of fatigue, grief and confusion. Thank you for this superb training.

Wow--just "recovering" from my 4-day training. Tons of information shared during the training that was in addition to the material shared in the handbook and will be helpful in presentations. It's going to take some time to "sink in." The material supplied was exceptional. The sincerity of the presenter (Jocelyn) was evident from the time of our introductions. I would highly recommend the experience.

As an ordained minister, I like to think that I know a fair amount about grief and helping people who have experienced loss. However, the Grief Recovery Method is a refreshing approach that actually empowers grievers to recover in a healthy, whole-person way. I can't wait to offer Grief Recovery Method Groups at my church.

Taking the certification training has prepared me to help those I meet with deal with grief and loss that has consumed them for too long. I was personally changed and look forward to being an instrument of change in someone else’s life.

I had a fantastic experience participating in the Grief Recovery Certification Training. Not only did I process a very heavy loss that has been weighing on me, I also received immeasurable support in being able to help others on their journey to recovery.

Strongly recommend the material! It is practical, nonjudgmental and helpful.

Having wanted to do this training for over a year, it did not let me down. It was very emotionally raw but I left feeling like I was leaving such heavy weights in Brighton and that I could go forward and do so much good from what I had learned.

This training is a must-do! Grief is all around us, and we (therapists) are so often on the front lines. This method armed me for my work and I can't wait to begin using it with the people I try to help!

The Grief Recovery Method is a life-changing programme that is doing so much good in the world. This course gave me the tools to deal with my own grief and to move forward and help others. I have made lifelong friendships with the people in this course. I can't recommend it highly enough!
