Testimonials for our Certification Training Program
Once I went through the Grief Recovery Method, I knew that it was the transformative program that speaks heart language to hurting people. I am delighted to go into the world with the mandate, "tell the truth about yourself all the time" because with this, I am able to move heart first as a professional.

I am excited about my certification as a Grief Recovery Specialist. I was able to walk out the process to address my own grief. This process is completely life changing and heart fixing. Grief Recovery Method is an emotional game changer.

A truly transformative experience that can bring real healing to your life and to the lives of others. Having worked in the counselling field for 25+ years, this process is a simple yet remarkably profound way forward when you feel stuck in the past and afraid to face the future.

I highly recommend doing this Certification with Sandi Derby! It was a life changing experience for me to connect with her and such an amazing group of people who are now specialists.

I believe in the GRM 1000%! I was a student in the 8 week program and that experience lead me to see being a Specialist! I’m so excited about sharing this program with others so they can experience the rich freedom this method brings!

I was very impressed with my instructors ability to navigate the material while managing the room efficiently. Ed is caring and passionate about the method and sharing it with the world. I was comfortable and shown grace while also being emotionally protected. While I am emotionally spent, I learned a great deal. I was able to work through an issue I'd carried for many years. I look forward to working in the community and sharing the freedom this method promotes.

I walked into this training expecting to just get taught the materials we would need to teach but actually walking through the method helped me grasp the concept better. It is a class you have to commit to in order to get the most out of it but it is worth it! The only downside I have with this course is that most classes are on the weekend. If you have little ones that can mean an additional cost to find childcare.

The 4-day online Grief Recovery Certification training was extremely professional, yet also very personal and sensitively presented. The trainer was one of the best I've had. She was extremely knowledgable, patient, sensitive and present. This is one of the best online trainings I've done in a while - and I've done a lot! I'm looking forward to adding GRM to my coaching business and feel confident going forward after this thorough training.

The GRM is nothing less than miraculously transformative. Using this method, I was able to complete the grief on a relationship I had thought was finished years ago. The emotional relief was profound and the physical release was nothing less than astounding. For me, the most significant improvement has been to my cognitive abilities. We don't talk as much about how grief diminishes our abilities to plan, imagine, problem solve, critically think. When I finished my letter, it was as if a veil had lifted from my mind. It's taking me some time to process the changes I feel from just this one completion, but I know I will use this method regularly. For the first time in years, I am genuinely excited about life. I can't even begin to describe how beautifully Sandi Derby, our instructor, facilitated our group. And the other participants were the most vulnerable, safe and kind people I've ever met. The entire experience was emotionally taxing but literally life changing in the most beautiful way.

Amazing class! The information was informative and well laid out. Our instructor Sandi was over the top amazing! Professional, excellent examples, modeling the method perfectly…seriously talented instructor! She also made the environment safe and really made it easy to deepen into the core pain and release it!

I am not sure that you are able to improve this. Lois is a FANTASTIC facilitator. She is extremely knowledgeable in the program and has an amazing ability to pass that knowledge on to others.

Work n progress… Will be glad to offer overviews and inputs upon having engaged with souls in need in the near future…

The four-day online training was intense and eye-opening! I had many of my misconceptions corrected and given clear directions as to how I could effectively help others to move forward and I thank Catherine Best and my fellow trainees for their example and support.

The certification training proved to be much more than what I anticipated. Not only do I now feel qualified to facilitate a group or one to one Courses of GRM, but I also have a greater understanding of who I am as a person. I feel free with my feelings and conversely, feel less of a need to talk about myself. This makes me a better listener.

Going into this, I had not intended on applying the GRM to myself. My intention was to learn how to help others. I was surprised to discover this method works - even when you are reluctant to apply it!

The program was great. i learned so much and hopefully I can help someone who is grieving as it helped me when I did the one on one from the Grief Recovery specialist who helped me.

Before getting certified I knew that I didn't quite know what I was doing when it came to dealing with loss. Now I know what I was doing right, what I was doing wrong, and why those things are helpful or unhelpful.
