Long before becoming a Grief Recovery Method Specialist Gwenda was drawn to helping people navigate loss. She had experienced 17 deaths by the time I was 21 as well as being the daughter of a Gerontology nurse.
Her greatest loss came in 2012, a loss of health. She experienced a Post Traumatic Stress diagnosis that completely sidelined her. Since then, she focused on getting healthy, writing two bestsellers , one documenting the effects of trauma and another Wrestling with the Urn to cover aspects of the end of life .
While she is well versed in the death and dying part, grief and embracing all those messy emotions still needed work. While she had tried many different modalities, it wasn’t until she found the Grief Recovery Method, a simple, yet not easy, 4 step process that allows you to get a lay of the land of your own emotional landscape, that she was able to embrace her incomplete relationships and trauma that held her back in ways she didn’t know she was doing.
Now she wants to share that emotional freedom with you.
Our support groups offer a safe, evidence-based environment for grievers to take effective and lasting action, no matter the type of loss experienced. These groups are led by Grief Recovery Method Specialists, trained and certified by the Grief Recovery Institute.
This program is for people who prefer to work one-on-one rather than in a group setting. The 7-session format utilizes the same proven materials as the group programs and can be completed in-person or online with a Grief Recovery Method Specialist specifically trained to help people move through loss with dignity and respect.
The loss of a pet can be emotionally devastating. Sadly, the impact of the heartbreak of this type of loss is often downplayed or ignored by friends and family. This 6-meeting program is focused on offering pet owners an effective mechanism for taking action to move through and beyond their grief.
