About The Format

This program can be taught once a week for 8 weeks or twice a week for 4 weeks. There are 2-3 days in between sessions if offered twice a week. Each session is approximately 2 hours long. There is reading and assignments in between sessions. New participants can join on sessions 1 or 2; after session 2 the group is closed. GRM Support Groups are not drop in style groups. All GRM programs are confidential, structured and action oriented.


A Note From The Presenter:

This will be a weekly group to help participants learn the actions that will allow you to let go of the pain following a loss. Loss can be many things such as death, divorce, loss of health, employment, income, moving and many others.
The Grief Recovery Handbook is included in the price.
We will be practicing social distancing, mask wearing and hand sanitizing practices to protect yourself and other participants. Please bring a clean mask each session or a clean cloth mask will be provided. If you are feeling ill, have tested positive for COVID or been around someone that has tested positive, please do not attend. One-on-one sessions are available. Please contact me for information. [email protected]
Group will be limited to 4-6 participants. If group is full you can be put on waitlist for next group.
