What grievers say about Kori

Kori was an excellent GRM facilitator! Kori shared her gifts of listening, presence, compassion, communication, and honesty. Kori created a container of safety and support. Kori made it clear that she was available during and between sessions for comments, questions, and support. Kori's sharing of her journey gave me encouragement of the healing that is possible. Kori invited me to look at my grief in a different light and to better understand the other relationships that contributed to this grief. Kori invited me to connect with her for additional support and with questions after our final session. Kori's coaching helped me stay motivated, encouraged, and inspired. I highly recommend Kori.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Kori, this process and the experience from beginning to end. It was a tough process that required me to dig deep and confront a lot of toxic relationships and events throughout my life. The end result was so worth it! Kori was so empathetic, kind and honest. I never once felt uncomfortable sharing very intricate and private experiences with her. This was truly a life changing experience!

The sudden death of my sister brought complex emotions, particularly the weight of unfinished business & the longing for a different kind of relationship. Kori Clausen provided a safe and supportive space, helping me process the regrets and unspoken words & ultimately helping me find a path toward healing and peace. Kori's approach helped me feel supported and heard, she was incredibly flexible with her schedule & she was candid about her own losses. Beyond her individual sessions, Kori's book, "Paddle Out!", was her personal journey through the grief of losing her husband as a young mom & it served as a powerful resource in helping me process my grief. If you're struggling with a sudden loss, of any type, I wholeheartedly recommend seeking out Kori's help. Her empathy, combined with her personal experience & insightful approach in the Grief Recovery Method make her a truly remarkable guide on the confusing journey through grief.

The program has allowed me to identify several experiences that can cause grief throughout a lifetime and healthy strategies to recover from them. I also learned a great deal about misinformation we have learned throughout decades and generations, and I feel more confident in approaching others experiencing grief and feel more comfortable in handling my own. By attending the 8-week in-person program, I not only connected with an outstanding facilitator but also formed strong connections with the other participants in my group. Although the book discusses the program and method in a very clear and organized manner, I would still wholeheartedly recommend attending an in-person program.

Kori did an excellent job facilitating the GRM program and working with me to get through my grieving process. I would definitely recommend the course.

I am absolutely overwhelmed with admiration and appreciation for the exceptional job Kori has done! We were her pilot group, but you would never have guessed that unless she mentioned it. Kori’s facilitation was nothing short of masterful—she responded to questions with such wisdom, knowing precisely when to step in and when to let silence work its magic. Her instincts for handling each situation, no matter how challenging or intense, were flawless. She embodies a natural grace and talent for this work that is simply inspiring. Kori was not only consistently available for any questions we had but also demonstrated unwavering strength in letting us navigate the sometimes difficult terrain this program can present. This delicate balance of support and restraint is incredibly challenging to achieve, yet she did so with extraordinary poise. Her warmth, dedication, and unwavering presence assured us we were in the most capable hands. I am genuinely in awe of her innate ability and am more than convinced that she is truly destined for this work.

Kori was excellent. I was impressed how she listened without judgement, and gave suggestions and other ways to reframe concepts and challenges. Kori was very clear and vulnerable with her grief loss graph and history and final letter- and because of sharing that clarity, we all felt given full permission to be clear, honesty and vulnerable as we worked together in group.
