Jeanine Jackson

Thank you for visiting my Grief Recovery site. My name is Jeanine Jackson, and I’d love to have the privilege of helping you recover from the losses you’ve experienced. Given only a surface glance at my life, one could conclude that I have had a pretty easy life. In many ways, this is true. I’ve been married to the love of my life for over 40 years, I have three incredibly successful adult children, and nine amazing and precious grandchildren – including two sets of twins. A peek behind the curtain, however, reveals many losses from incomplete relationships that left me living with lingering sadness. I thought there was something wrong with me, that I had somehow been damaged by life. I went to a Grief Recovery Method Support Group to support a friend who had just become a specialist. I left amazed at what I had learned, and more importantly how I felt – unweighted and emotionally lighthearted. That’s when I decided to become a certified Grief Recovery Specialist. I realized that I had a passion to share with others how to discover the tools that had so surprisingly helped me! I am an ordained minister with a vast array of life experience in the pastoral counseling environment. I have a natural compassion and authenticity which helps people feel comfortable sharing their stories and struggles. My voice of understanding and encouragement has helped many unearth and rediscover their inherent value and worth so they can confidently live the truth of their unique identity. I am a business owner and leader with contagious courage, a strong voice of encouragement, and a belief that friendship and relationships matter. I am honored to bring Grief Recovery to my community of Vancouver, WA by offering the Grief Recovery Institute’s 8-week Grief Support Group and their 7-week One-on-One program. I look forward to meeting fellow grievers, and helping them discover that recovery from loss really is possible!
