Testimonials For One-on-One Support
I was able to let go of the pain and constant going over and over the relationship. I was able to see I did my best as a mom and that I never ever intended to hurt my child. I can now stop the constant going over and over how I went wrong. Now I can remember all the good times and I see they far out weighted the bad.

When I lost my 13 year old grandson to suicide 8 months ago I didn’t believe I would ever recover from it or be able to continue to live a normal life. His parents did the GRM program not long after he passed and strongly encouraged me to do it also. Through the GRM I learned what my patterns were in handling losses throughout my life. I had no tools to deal with my pain. The conventional ones of time, keep busy, he’s in a better place, etc. just made me angry. After my experience with GRM I know I will be able to carry on and remember my boy with love and happy memories. Miss him? Of course, I always will and very sad, too, but the overwhelming heaviness of grief has been lifted. Thank you. Sally

This program helped me learn more about grief and how to cope with myself and others who are grieving. It prepared me for the public and others’ responses to me as I am grieving. Nancy Hull was amazing in being my grief counselor.

This program was great. As and adult I thought think that I did done everything right and realize that I was stuck on the responsibilities that were assigned to me as a child (taking care of everyone else that I forgot about me. And NOW I know that "I am Important." I am no longer responsible to taking care of everyone else; I have to set boundaries; and "NO!) is a complete sentence. Right now I still have a few more letters to write, but I feel that I have been given the tools and instructions to complete those letters so that I can more forward with my life. I am emptying my invisible bookbag to being a complete person. Thank you.

I have been able to understand my mom on a deeper, humanistic level. This understanding has allowed an honest, heartfelt forgiveness for mom’s decision to end her own life. Rick Kennington

Program really provided me an understanding of myself and how I was handling my grief. This program assisted me in pulling out the grief I had shoved way down inside me and taught me how to keep the good memories going and crying is ok for when I my heart hurts.

The Grief Recovery Method was easy to learn and apply--because of the empathy and expertise of my facilitator. I appreciated my facilitator's sensitivity, compassion, life experience, and guidance during my first grief recovery journey. I feel lighter emotionally than I have in 35 years since losing my big brother to an aggressive leukemia.

I lost my 24-year-old sister to alcoholism back in February 2021, and have struggled to cope with the finality of her death. My mother started working with a Grief Recovery facilitator and encouraged me to do the same, and I'm so glad that I did. The coursework made me take a much deeper look at my relationship with my sister, which helped me realize the things I had been holding onto - guilt, things left unsaid, things I wish I had done or not done. I expected the work to be mostly one-on-one talk therapy sessions about the pain of losing a loved one, but it was so much more than that. I am so grateful that I made the decision to use the Grief Recovery Method in coping with the loss of my sister.
