My husband passed away in Sept 2017. I am still pretty raw!! I knew I needed some help. A friend recommended Nancy Hull to me. After speaking with her I knew this is what I needed. This program helped me learn how to handle and process my grief. Learned how to deal with everyday issues while going through grief. I learned a lot about myself and feel more at peace than I have in a long time. There were some tough days but Nancy helped me get through them!! I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is dealing not just with a loss by death but anything that they are grieving. Absolutely amazing!!

I am not sure at this time that the program has help me at all. I may see that it did unknowingly in the future. I did learn new things, although I do not think I was able to 'complete' my grief journey as the class is intended to do.

Program was outstanding. I have recommended the program to my sister and daughter. My daughter will be attending Mary Anna’s next Grief Recovery group. I continue to benefit from what I learned during grief recovery.

This program was a game changer in dealing with my grief. I lost my 5 week old nephew to SIDS in 2009 and thought I had worked through the grieving process. However since taking this class I feel like I have a healthy closure and I'm not haunted with fear and regret. George did such a great job in setting an example of how to do the work and was vulnerable with his story. This was very helpful. I loved this class

The grief recovery method helped me process the death of my grandfather from many. many years ago. I was unaware how I was affected by his death. Until I went through this process I did not realize how much pain. unforgiveness, and resentment I had toward him. Completing this method has helped me forgive him. say good-bye and that I love him.

It helped me to learn how I had been avoiding my emotions and that it is ok to feel whatever emotions I feel without judgement.

It has changed how I am in relationships--less distress about the disappointed hopes/dreams/expectations with my parents. It has decreased my anxiety and fear about the future. For example I used to work myself into tears and panic just thinking about my dog dying someday. Now I feel like I have the tools for when that day comes and meanwhile I am that much more intentional to say things to him and love on him fully....being more patient or apologizing when I'm not so that I don't carry those regrets later. I feel much better equipped to be with people in their grief and not say unhelpful things.

It opened my eyes as to why I was always so sad and made me realized only I can give myself joy and that I have to take care of myself with no guilt

It allowed me to see grief and recovery in a whole new way. It dislodged any misinformation about grief that i may had, and equipped me with right tools to complete the pain caused by old grief and losses. I am also confidrnt that by using the recovery method in the future, I will be able to live in the moment, not hindered by grief.

Unfortunately, in the last 12 months, my family and I have lost both my uncle and grandfather from cancer. Even before these losses occured in my life, I felt that I had no idea how to cope with loss or to help others cope with losses they face. Because I know Joe from church and I know his character, I felt so much more comfortable in taking the chance and being a part of the group therapy sessions. This program has aided in my pain recovery from the losses I faced this year because it taught me that grief is a real process that may be faced because of many different life changes. I learned about STERBs and that while they may bring short-term relief, a griever really must face the core issue of the loss itself in order to recover and heal. With the support of other team members, I was able to say what I never got to say to my deceased loved one.

I have learned how to be present. More losses will come my way but the power and confusion of misinformation about what grief is and how to walk through it has been quelled. I’m grateful for this experience and have already shared the opportunity with others to join next session.

I found the program helpful but it could afford to be more in depth
