How I can help you
When managing a bereavement service for a local hospice, I became aware of the Grief Recovery Method.
What I learnt about this method of working with grieving people inspired me to become a Grief Recovery Specialist and to use the Grief Recovery Method for the benefit of orhers as well as myself.
Whilst relatively new to the Grief Recovery Method, I have extensive experience of grief work through previous careers in nursing and as a Senior Lecturer specialising in cancer care and end of life care which included supporting bereaved people.
If you have a broken heart, if you are feeling lost or stuck, l can help using the Grief Recovery Method. It has a sound evidence base.
Over 40+ life losses can leave us feeling bereft
When we think of bereavement, we usually think of the death of a loved one. Most people looking for bereavement counselling or a grief coach only feel entitled to do so if someone close to them has died.
However there are over 40 different personal losses that can leave us feeling devastated, heartbroken, lost, hopeless and ultimately cause the same emotional and physical symptoms of grief.
The Grief Recovery Method is unique in that it is applicable to any and all kinds of loss. Each Certified Grief Recovery Specialist has been trained to guide grievers without judgement, criticism or analysis. We do not compare losses and we know that every griever is unique.
Not only can the action steps within the Grief Recovery Method be applied to any type of loss, they can be used again and again with any future losses that occur - once you have participated in a Programme, you will have all the tools you need to cope with loss later in life.
