Abbie Jones

My name is Abbie Jones, I am a Grief Recovery Method Specialist based between Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. I am equipped with the necessary skills to compassionately guide grievers through their unique grief recovery journeys. My passion for grief support stems from personal losses I have faced in my own life, including the loss of my husband and other immediate family members. Through walking the path of grief myself, I discovered the incredible power of having a listening ear and thoughtful guidance and this inspired me to pursue this specialty training so I can support others. In my previous role as a community nurse for over 25 years, I developed a passion for empowering others through holistic support and an individual approach to care. My special interest has long been supporting individuals and families in both tangible and intangible losses - from the loss of a loved one, to relationship struggles, illness, shattered hopes and dreams, confidence issues and more. I recognise that grief permeates many aspects of health and wellbeing, and my aim has always been to offer a caring presence and outlet for individuals to process their unique grieving experiences. The Grief Recovery Method allows grievers to address unresolved grief and to promote healing during and following an intensely painful season of life. The Grief Recovery Method offers something uniquely different from counselling, therapy and alternative treatments. Whilst all of these can benefit you, the Grief Recovery Method gives you the tools and skills to resolve issues experienced by loss, build emotional resilience and discover life beyond loss. The program runs for seven sessions and is held in the private, peaceful surroundings of Deer Orchard Retreats. You will be gently guided throughout the process and fully supported in your grief recovery journey. Please get in touch for an informal chat about how I may be able to help and support you. Client Testimonials "The Grief Recovery Method has been an incredible help to me. Abbie was just wonderful, she explained how the process worked and shared her own experiences. She was a great listener and so supportive. The environment felt so safe and intimate. It has given me the tools to help me complete my loss and I know that these tools will help me in the future. It really was a great experience, although challenging but I feel as if a weight has been lifted off me. Abbie listened with such great compassion and empathy and encouraged me, so I was able to work through it. I was able to talk about painful moments in my life but also good ones. Abbie is very committed and passionate about this programme which showed in every session. I would highly recommend it." - Sam, July 2024 "Abbie Jones was absolutely fantastic throughout the whole programme from the first meeting she was calm, patient and non judgemental and I felt totally at ease and safe with her. She guided me through what I now recognise as Grief/loss and helped me to understand and work through these. Abbie was delightful and I cannot thank her enough." - Michaela December 2024
