Testimonials for our Certification Training Program

I've suffered from loss my entire life. I've lived with the pain that associated with all of that loss and for the first time ever now feel completely equipped to not only complete my loss with my relationships but equally equipped to help others experience the same kind of completion around their losses. Thanks GRM, you've made a huge difference in my life and as a result the ripple effect will affect and assist many others in a very positive way.

I learned a lot about grief and recovery. The myths and methods for recovery were very helpful and will enhance my work with survivors.

I am astounded by the depth that I and others in my group went to over this 4 day training. I have new tools that I feel are critical to my own recovery from loss. I am thrilled that I am being offered new possibilities to also help others heal authentically. I am so grateful! Thank You!

The experience of the certification training is both healing and tranformative. Taking the journey into the heart of your pain and being in a safe space to bring it to the surface where raw emotion can be expressed in a safe supportive environment and actually complete your loss is invaluable. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Grief Recovery institute!

the instructor was very sensitive to my vision impairment and treated me with respect an no different than the sighted people in the group. this demonstrated her compassion as a person and I greatly appreciated her. Bobbie is an excellent representative of the compassion and understanding needed to be a Grief Recovery Specialist. it was my pleasure to meet her and be under her teaching.

The grief recovery process works as participants are encouraged to work on their unresolved issues of grief and loss in a safe environment. How liberating that was? Thanks to our trainer, Bobbie Rill for the positive experience.

It was a real eye opener for me. I thought I knew a lot about grief when in reality I did not have the slightest clue. I am not confident and enriched with tremendous knowledge that I can now share with others, thanks to this training.

The seminar was absolutely amazing! Lois was our instructor and she was excellent at teaching the concepts and making sure we fully understood what we were learning. She was well-organized, patient and engaging. The four days went so fast and by the end of the training none of us wanted to leave. We had dealt bonded and that made learning about grief easy and comfortable. I highly recommend this training.

My mother passed away when I was six, my father, when I was sixteen. I spent 40+ years living in a hurt/loss I could never explain, and I saw familiar patterns in all my relationships (close but not too close) just in case I had to live my life without them. The Grief Recovery Method help me discover what grief looks like for me, and I realized I spent most of my life trying to feel okay, even though I was in a lot of pain. I had the opportunity to attend the specialist training and it was amazing! I’m so excited that I now have the opportunity to help others, just like me, who walked around in a pain/loss not knowing there is actual hope and a way out. Julie Dennis

I came into this training a bit skeptical, but I promised myself that I would keep an open mind. This training exceeded my expectations! The emphasis on the relational and emotional aspect of grief recovery makes The Grief Recovery method powerful and effective in supporting individual's in healing and recovering from loss. I will most definitely be taking this work out into the world, it is so needed. The facilitators, Jocelyn and Ed, were top-notch and I can't speak highly enough of this program and my experience in the training. THANK YOU for such an incredible experience!

I enjoyed the training experience from start to end. Jocelyn and Ed were exemplary professionals while being warm and patient in guiding us to proficiency with the method. I feel prepared to begin my work as a Grief Recovery Specialist.

I feel so much "lighter" after I completed my Loss History Graft and my "Completion" letter about my Mother's suicide attempt many years ago.

03/20/2018

The Grief Recovery training was intense but Not overwhelming. It is easy to learn the policy and procedures the hard part was working on SELF. You will have to address a personal loss, but you are in a comfortable safe environment. The release is unexplainable and refreshing. I left feeling lighter.
