It helped me to think about things that I had forgotten about over the years or had thought weren’t as important growing up. It was helpful to get the closure so I am able to move onto the next chapter of life. And now I have tools to help me through any difficulties that will arise

Doing the GRM in all the ways it was written and intended to be done helped me sort through the pain of losing my baby and be able to remember the good feelings. Now when I think of him it’s not something I want to push away, but something I can smile about. So much “myth-busting” about grief and helpful information that I haven’t come across elsewhere. Truly feel like a changed person and very fortunate to have done this work.

It was just amazing how the tools of the program as properly used by my grief partner uncovered so much that had been locked away for years. I will forever be grateful for the GRM program and what it has done for me. Jesus saw fit to use it to bring me to healing!

The book was an easy read and well laid out with the coursework. The program really helped me see how grief can come in all sorts of forms and that no matter what the form it needs to be worked through to be able to move past it. The program especially challenged my beliefs on forgiveness. I am still struggling to fully grasp that concept and understand it, because things I was taught about forgiveness are very different than what I learned in this class. I feel like this class has really helped add to my toolbox and give me a solid path on what to do when I experience grief of some kind. I am really happy to have that path so I can tackle other losses in my life. Tammy was also so empathetic, kind, and loving throughout the program. She was not judgemental and was so good at listening. I am really grateful for her leading me through it all.

I think that it went really well, I learned a lot! As mentioned above, sometimes I wish that we could have gotten rid of the Grief Recovery Book. If I had a more normal type of grief, this would have worked better. Some of our best sessions were when we strayed from the book. Marybeth did a great job. I appreciate all that she taught me! I would absolutely recommend her to a friend!

Kari is a truly wonderful human. I felt so accepted and supported by her. She created a safe space for me to be vulnerable and her honesty and sense of humor helped me get through many of the tougher assignments. She taught me so much, not just about grief, but about myself as well. Going through this program helped me to get a clearer picture of my life, the specific losses I have experienced, and how those losses were negatively affecting me. I have the tools now to work on these losses and become a better, more whole version of myself. This program was incredibly transformative and I would recommend Kari in a heartbeat to anyone who is struggling with unresolved grief.

The program has helped me in the following ways: It has helped me to understand that most people cannot express or know how to console people who are grieving. It has helped me to take a walk through my life and actually focus on my grief/loss which are emotional i have always pushed deep down inside me in order to move on.Now i have learnt to deal with the emotions and know that it is healthy. I learned that it is okay to take your time to deal with the loss. There is no real time limit to get over your loss.

It allowed me to get in touch with my deep emotions and to move into forgiveness and also apologies for my mother, and have a sense of completion in my relationship with her. I am left with a feeling of peace, and only regret that it could not have happened while she was alive.

The most important learning for me was understanding that my grief was cumulative. At 56 years old, I had amazed a large number of experiences that created grief within me, from as early as my upbringing (parents), lost relationships, challenging family dynamics, several lost jobs, to the loss of my parents through sickness, and finally, my marriage falling apart. The grief I was holding onto was making it difficult for me to function. Fortunately, I heard of Victoria from a youtube podcast, where she truly spoke my language. Her understanding of grief resonated, and her statement of being a lifelong griever, made me realize that I too had been a lifelong griever. I was holding onto a lot. She worked with me in stages, within the scope of the program, and between sessions was available by email to guide and help me work through blocks and questions. The completion process was powerful, and I believe that Victoria has a knack and natural talent to help grievers.

I have been able to make peace with the loss and grief of my parents passing. I became aware of some boulders, and plenty of rocks, that I was carrying in my backpack. I was able to put that weight down after many years. Having grasped the method, I will move on to other relationships and grief and plan to apply the things I have learned.My wonderful facilitator has assured me if future support is needed, she will be there for me.I love that.

I have a greater sense of 'completeness' on the relationship I was grieving. This person is still living and the GRM has shifted how I deal with them to a more positive and stronger way.

It is a discovery method and I truly did discover things about myself and my daughters death that has helped me to bring closure.

I feel lighter and more functional. The program has helped me connect better to my faith. I still have a long way to go to process the deaths of both my children. Ethel-Anne is willing to help me and I’m very grateful. I feel hopeful.

I feel that the program took me from a place of sadness and confusion to a place of lessened sadness and understanding. As a society that does not know how to appropriately deal with grief, I learned a great deal. I believe the tools given to me from the readings have helped me move forward. I do attribute much of my learning about grief and the completion of understanding my grief to my facilitator, Erica Sonnabend. She is well-schooled in HOW to share the information and help in the recovery process. I believe that rereading the recovery book will help affirm and sustain this healing process for me.
