Welcome! My name is Angela Vanderpool, and I am located in beautiful Central Oregon. Where I live with my husband and our four-legged son Judge. We enjoy all the fantastic things Central Oregon outdoor life has to offer, spending our free time riding our motorcycles, snowmobiles, hiking, camping, or enjoying our back yard. I have spent the last 12 years working in the Senior Living Industry in various positions, most recently as The Director of Culture & Engagement. I was certified as a Life Coach in 2017 and have worked extensively with employees and guiding them to live their best life. After doing this for a few years and realizing how much loss they were dealing with due to working with seniors, not to mention personal loss they were experiencing I knew I needed better tools to help them. After much research, I landed on the Grief Recovery Method's training and was certified in March of 2019. Two things happened during this training – first, I found that I had a lot of uncompleted work to do in my own life from many losses over my lifetime – Divorce, Deaths in my family, Estrangements in my family, multiple heartbreaking pet losses, bankruptcy from over 20 years ago (that still was affecting me, but I thought I was complete with). I thought I would do this training to help everyone else, and what I found was I had to help myself first. The second thing that happened during this training is I found my Life's Passion. I had spent a lifetime trying to find the right avenue to truly make a difference and leave this world a better place than when I arrived, and The Grief Recovery Method is it. The program allows me to lead people through a proven method out of some of their darkest days into the light, to show people that it is ok to show emotions (good & bad), it is ok to talk about when your heart is broken, and through a precise process you can start to feel real joy again in your life. No matter what the loss you are going through – Death of a loved one, estrangement of someone close to you, divorce, moving, loss of a beloved pet, retirement, loss of health, financial loss or gain, loss of trust and security, Alzheimer's diagnosis or any of the other over 40 life losses I am here to lead you through the Grief Recovery Method. I lead 8-week group's, 6-week pet loss, and one on one Grief Recovery Method. If you are not sure what to expect or if this work is right for you, please reach out, and I would be happy to do a complimentary 15-minute intro call with you.
