About Jeff

Hi, my name is Jeff.   By the time I was 28 yrs of age, I had already lost both of my parents to cancer.  I never truly understood the impact this had on me until I completed The Grief Recovery Program.  In 2011, my brother, and best friend, suddenly moved 2000 miles away.  I had no idea how to handle this loss, but the tools of GRM showed me how to navigate this loss and many others that had occured in my life.   I have been certified with GRM for over 10 years and have led over 300 people through the Grief Recovery Program.   I have a minsterial background and currently work as a hospice bereavement coordinator in the KC, MO area.  In all my years of helping others, I've not found a program that is as helpful and literally "life-changing" as GRM.   My work focuses on the Cass County and Eastern Jackson County area of the South Kansas City Metro.  I lead 3-4 groups a year, and am also available to work with you 1-1 if needed.  I am also connected with other GRM specialists, so if I'm a little too far away from you, I might be able to help you find someone closer to where you live.  I'm available to help in any way I can.

My Experience

At first I thought nothing could help, but I was wrong! As I worked through the program I began to heal, and it had a lot to do with Jeff, who was so concerned with his participants.

My Experience

This program helped me realize that I had been using STERBs to avoid my grief. I learned that it is okay not to be okay, and to be open and honest about how I was feeling. I learned that part of my grief was due to some incomplete items in my relationship, and this program helped me identify and complete those items.
