Melody is a compassionate, caring, and empathetic facilitator. She brings her personal experience with grief and the Grief Recovery Method to the class, which made her relatable. In addition to the weekly class, Melody made herself available to meet outside of the normal class time for one-on-one time to listen and discuss my individual grief work. I would highly recommend Melody and the Grief Recovery Method to anyone who is having a hard time dealing with grief of any nature, including the loss of a relationship, but not necessarily to death.

This program was a great way for me to release emotions that I have been holding onto for so long. I feel more healed. I feel more connected to my loved ones. I have a better understanding on how all of the loss I've had in my life has impacted me.

The 8 week program gave me the basic skills to begin grief recovery work. I still have much work to do, but at least now I have the "how" and can use the method to continue healing.

The GRM was definitely a surprise for me. I hesitantly went into it thinking this was just going to be another grieving session with lots of tears and tissues. This experience allowed me to reflect upon all of the things I've gone through in my life that have created the self image that I carry around with me. It was so helpful to focus on some of the most significant impacts in my life and to take a deep dive into the emotions surrounding those things. This class helped me to reexamine my lifelong relationship issues with my mother and to not only come to understand a lot of the whys behind the scenes, but to let go of a lot of the negative feelings that I had spent a lifetime sweeping under the rug. It was a very empowering course.

My grief specialist was very caring and encouraging. She explained to me that there are many forms of grief and if not completed, it will arise in other areas of our lives. I have completed one relationship and plan on continuing my work with her. There is hope in my future to not repeat same mistakes. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone struggling with a loss/grief.

It has helped me understand how I could be a better listener to those grieving. It taught me not to interrupt someone that is crying by touching or hugging. It also taught me to LISTEN as they are sharing. Not interject my thoughts or words.

It challenged my thought process about grief and loss. Helped me drill down to a root of fear.
