Hello my name is Desmond Britto. Thank you for your interest in the Grief Recovery Method and for visiting my profile.

Grief is something that will inevitably be a part of everyone's life at some stage. Each individual tries to cope with grief as best they can and may choose one or more forms of treatment or help. Inaction to address the cause/s and indeed effect/s of grief can result in tremendous damage to self - filled with intense heartbreak and pain for years, decades and even a lifetime.

I had been dealing with grief for over 40 years relating to family bereavements and two other significant relationship losses as well as pet losses. I had experienced severe depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and PTSD. Emotionally a total wreck and psychologically extremely confused I somehow managed to get through life so often pretending that I was ok. The use of prescribed medication offered temporary relief but with unwanted side effects and yet I still had to live with the insidious workings of grief. I tried various ways of trying to manage it including brain spotting, CBT, counselling and schema therapy .... but without much success.

In 2024 I was told about the Grief Recovery Method by a friend. It sounded interesting but I was sceptical, after all I had tried the various ways mentioned above. However during an introductory phone call with a specialist I started to realise the potential of the Grief Recovery Method with it's evidence based approach which appealed to me because of its realism and structured practical program that had been devised over 50 years to offer a genuine and sincere program to effectively help grievers achieve completion. I decided to commit to the 7 one-to-one online sessions - with a lot less scepticism!

The Grief Recovery Method is about professionally providing a compassionate and personal engagement with each individual in a private and safe space and helping them work through each session as they address their grief. The individual will learn about new tools that will equip them to methodically and effectively manage their grief leading towards completion.

The Grief Recovery Method sessions proved to be significantly effective for me - so much so that I decided to enrol in the training program to become a Grief Recovery Method Specialist so that with compassion, honesty and commitment I could offer others the proven benefits of working with the Grief Recovery Method.

With great pride and much gratitude I qualified and am now a Grief Recovery Method Specialist!

Based in Wembley, I currently offer one-to-one, group and pet loss online sessions.

Do feel free to contact me by phone or email with any questions you might have about the G.R.M.

I very much look forward to hearing from you.
