Testimonials For Terri Swan
Terri is a gifted listener & healer. Her intuitive listening skills and the steps she knowledgeably and carefully guided me though in Grief Recovery brought me to a place of peace and joy that I had no idea how to get to otherwise. After years of counseling; and, trying different methods, it is such a massive relief to get to such a good place. I now have a joy for living and hope for the future—as GRM has equipped me with tools to process future challenges—as well as process past losses that may still arise as I go through life.

Terri was amazing and very easy to talk to. No judgement whatsoever and we even discussed things that weren’t part of the program but was needed to get off my chest. Very understanding, I recommend people go to her if they’re really struggling with abortion or even anything else that goes in in their life.

I really felt completion upon writing my letters and reading them out loud. My facilitator really supported me and I believe thats what helped me truly be able to feel and dig deep for the homework assignments in order to gain emotional completion. Also, I was ready to explore and go through the process. I have shared this book with a family member and a client as I found it to be simple, yet very vital and helpful.

This program has enabled me to truly understand my relationship, life circumstances, and changed my perspective of loss (focused on love, acceptance, and growth). I can now see how my child’s passing was something meaningful.

It helped me to understand grief better and offer a structure of how to deal with it, over and over again.

Before starting this program I felt very lost and was looking for concrete steps to help move me through the grieving process. Grief recovery has now become a tool that helps me navigate daily life in an intentional way that brings mindfulness to where I am in that specific moment. It was incredibly validating to my experiences while grieving and made me feel comfortable with the idea of completion. I can't say enough good things about how this program has helped me grow and find peace.

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.

I went in skeptical and didn't think that I could be helped but at that point I thought to myself "what do I have to lose" coming out of it I'm a different person I face my problems with a different attitude, deal with loss and my emotions. I feel like I can live again.

It gave valuable exercises to gain a deeper understanding of the types and volume of grief that I have experienced which I previously may not have been able to fully acknowledge.
