The GRM 7-week program was incredible! I have been facilitating a support group using the old tools and knowledge that everyone uses, but that doesn't work. Now that I have learned about GRM, I will have a difficult time continuing to facilitate these support groups because they can only take someone only so far. GRM allows individuals to not only move on with their lives after a loss or a death, but to fully recover a live a full life of joy and happiness. I want to become certified to facilitate GRM so that I can help more people deal with death and losses of any kind. Thank you for this program!

The program helped me bring forth and deal with old “hurts” that I had buried deep within my mind. However deep they were hidden, those past experiences were affecting my life. I feel like a burden was lifted from my shoulders and now I can deal with situations without letting old experiences form how I deal them. Thank you!!

I could take the steps from my course and relate it to any experiences in my life. It has been invaluable in helping unwind some of the loose threads in my life

The Grief Recovery Method provides a strong framework for understanding how we grieve various situations in our lives and removes invalid assumptions about the process. The framework helped me in the weeks and months following my father’s death, and continues to be of value as time goes on.

Everyone has loss and grieves in many different ways. This process taught me that their are right and wrong ways to grieve and right and wrong ways to talk to grievers. There are many kinds of loss, not just the death of a person but a relationship; pet; faith and even health. I started on this journey grieving the loss of my health but further dug into my grief and found I have to start with something else first. This process helped me through this grief and has allowed me to move on from the grief that was holding me down. Now, through this process I can approach the next loss and work though it. Thank you Grief Recovery Method

The Program helped me to gain a lot of peace around the loss of my dad. Sandi Atmore(Derby) was very professional, empathetic, kind, a great listener, and supportive in my process, and was available for inquiries regarding the program.I am very thankful for the experience.

I was already looking for an outlet to express the feelings I had bottled up inside for years. I wanted something that allow me to be myself, but dang I didn't realize who deep my pain was. This course really made me look at the hard questions and deal with how to resolve my internal struggles. It was very hard and I wanted to quit many times but I am glad I stuck with it. I feel lighter and have a new appreciation for the hurts I was struggling with.

Outstanding! So far, after completing 1 relationship, the program has worked to allow me to feel relieved and less anxious. I have a more positive outlook, have been less frustrated, and felt less anger. I am much more appreciative and understanding of others around me-Thank You!

It took me several years before I could find a person that I felt comfortable with. I immediately knew when I learned my counselor worked in this area and I still waited... but the outcome was phenomenal.

I prayed for God to please put a safe, professional person in my life who would give me new tools to heal and grow. God placed Caroline in my life at just the right time, and she walked me through the grief recovery method with courage and unconditional love. I’m infinitely grateful. I now have a new level of freedom and joy in my heart that I did not have before taking these steps to recover the woman God made me to be. Thank you for sharing these life-saving tools with the world!

The facilitator was knowledgeable, kind, compassionate and very nurturing. I enjoyed the structure and pace of the program. The homework assignments were interesting and challenging and she supported and helped ease the discomfort in approaching the writing. The willingness to be vulnerable is very important in getting the most out of this program. Liz's guidance, patience and compassion made this all possible. The program is extremely beneficial and the strong compassionate guide is that supports and encourages you to keep moving forward is so important. I've done a lot of work on myself to process my feelings and this program definitely stirred things in me that had not been stirred before. In that process is true growth, loving acceptance and compassion for myself.

The program helped me to get to the bottom of a very sticky/ difficult relationship with my mother who now has dementia and whom I am looking after. It has allowed me to find clarity, and the freedom to move forward without anger or resentment . I am no longer holding my Mum ransom for the past and can just love her as she is, because everyone deserves to be loved. Kathryn did a wonderful job helping me get to where I needed to be; free.
One-on-One Support03/27/2020Participant in Burford, Ontario
I found the focus created by the program and the guidance provided by the facilitator to be instrumental in lifting a weight from my being that was holding me back emotionally in so many ways. Having this burden lifted from me, and learning the skills to recognize and process my grief, has been a real gift to me. Thank you for creating this program!

As I have recently learned, grief recovery isn't just about death of a loved one. It's about any kind of loss. Once I began to understand that grief is cumulative, and society doesn't know how to properly deal with loss, things began coming together. Grief is not a "fun" emotion, but it is valid, and worth exploring. Up until starting the program with Terri, I realized I was running from the pain, and in the long run, that wouldn't help me, but hurt me further. I'm very grateful for Terri Swan, and the Grief Recovery Institute.

The program helped me move beyond the deep grief I was experiencing after suddenly losing my 41 year old son. I didn't think I could feel peace about his death but I do after completing the program.
One-on-One Support03/23/2020Participant in Rancho Cordova, Ca
My life has completely changed since my first time through the program. I will be using the tools to remove many more layers of dead feeling and am finally willing to see my life from a place where I truly want to be better. I was initially doubting the programs effectiveness to help in my particular loss. I didn't even give thought to it. But the more I shared with my Facilitator, the more clear it became where I needed to focus my healing. I am so thankful that I trusted her to attack the "elephant in the room" and I am even more grateful for the tools I was able to quickly and easily pick up and implement. I don't even have the words for how well thought out and executed this program is. Even the steps were perfect. The only challenge I found was needing to be brave to do the homework. As difficult as it was to complete assignments, almost immediately after they were each done, I could see that they were very helpful. I can't stop raving about how brilliant this program is. Thank you for getting your "breakthrough" revelations so articulately on paper and sharing them with the world. I will never forget nor forsake what I've learned. Most grateful, Rebecca

Opened my eyes to grief that I held on to for years without acknowledging the source of the loss
