This experience ended up being more meaningful than I anticipated. I knew it would be great. I could just feel it but it went over and beyond. I was able to reach something deep in my heart that I truly don't believe I ever would have without this training. I am so grateful. I have shared my experience with a few people and two have already expressed the desire to take the training.

I can't say enough about how the Grief Recovery Method has helped me personally deal with my own losses. Through the training, I have gained tools that I can use to to not only help myself deal with future losses, but also help others find emotional completeness in dealing with losses of any kind. What a wonderful program! Thank you so very much!

The experience of the GRM certification was once in a life time experience; working with a group of strangers that soon became friends and people offering love, support and open heart, ears and mind. Helping each other to complete our own grieves. I loved the experience and Laura Jacks did an amazing job as the facilitator. Thank you Grief Recovery Institute for your work of 40 years!

I attended the course in Huntingdon delivered by Phyl, who was brilliant. It certainly challenged me with my own grief and has confirmed my desire to help others with this program.

For anyone who is thinking about attending this training but is a little apprehensive, then please don't be. It is amazing. My experience was really positive, and already it has made a difference in my life.

The Grief Recovery Method is a unique combination of an invigorating 'retreat' for personal growth and a very valuable, training seminar. Thank you Phyl at GRM for sharing a new pathway to help to heal the world. My best wishes, Judith (Huntingdon, Feb; 2017)

I am absolutely staggered by the change in myself since doing the Grief Recovery Method Training. My group were all such wonderful people and people who I would call friends for life. Phyl Edmonds is an inspiration to do what she does and she does it incredibly well. Thank you all. I already have my first client and I cannot wait to give her the tools to change her life. Thank you GRUK

About a year ago, my brother-in-law died in a car accident. I've experienced the loss of loved ones when I was younger, but as an adult, the experience is different, especially as I knew the concept of grief. Since my brother-in-law's death, I was drawn to grief/loss counseling, which I eventually started running the grief/loss support group at my work. However, I knew that I was still lacking the tools to help my clients. I was right there with them in the grief process, but I did not how to move beyond that... until a co-worker handed me the Grief Recovery Handbook. I read the first few chapters and immediately felt enlightened. I saw on the back of the book that there were opportunities for training. When I saw that there was one coming up right before my brother-in-law's first year anniversary, I felt a calling to take it, and so I did. Now having gone through the process myself and becoming trained, it has not just provided me the tools to help grievers, but it also gave me a whole new perspective on life. It is one thing to talk and share about our pain, but it is another to have the tools to move beyond the pain. What I love most about this program is that it's applicable to so many other parts of our lives where we feel stunted in growth. Thank you for this opportunity to not only grow as a griever or therapist, but also as a person!

The Grief Recovery Specialist Certification training is one of the most valuable and effective courses I've experienced. This class teaches in-depth action steps needed to acknowledge and address the pain when grief and loss occurs. It opened my eyes to the necessity of completing the grief process that is natural and normal to the many loss events that can happen in life. Even more important is the impact on emotional health and well-being if the process is incomplete or ignored. Being a Grief Recovery Specialist offers credibility and provides a level of confidence as you guide people through this vital area of care.

As a GR alumni the method was not new to me, rather, from my first class my heart knew that I would one day become certified. Once that time finally came along my experience did not disappoint. My heart and mind grew more in awe of the GRM than I knew possible. True, practical, step-by-step tools to help others' recovery from their grief is an absolute gift of rare fashion. What I did not expect was the emotional connection that we created as a (large) class!. What a gift to go on this ride of learning about ourselves as well as learning to apply it to help the world. Thank you Jocelyn for your passion to train. Also, the death exercise was out of this world amazing!

At the end of the 4 days, I had all the tools needed to help someone successfully work through the grief recovery method. I now feel like I know more on grief than most professionals. An added bonus was that I finally experienced healing in my grief as a widow. I accomplished in two days, what I had been trying to do with a therapist for two years!!! Amazing! Everyone needs this!

I loved this training and am so glad I attended. I will be using the material to hopefully bring some healing to my little corner of rural California. My instructor Jocelyn was so lovely and wise. Thank you Grief Recovery Institute.

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist who has searched for a program that not only meets the griever with compassion but has a format that contains a series of steps and actions to help the griever get into their emotional self to move into a place of recovery. The Grief Recovery Method Training has exceeded my expectations.

I An amazing process! I worked on the two most difficult relationships in my life- two different occasions. And my life is totally changed due to the healings that took place as a result of this process. I am forever grateful. I loved it so much that I became certified. My hopes are that my enthusiasm for the Grief Recover Method will bring many from their heartfelt pain to one of feeling peace and joy.
