Support groups

Group, one-on-one and online programs, led by Certified Grief Recovery Specialists.

Is your heart broken due to death, divorce or another painful loss?

People say you have to let go and move on in your life, but they don’t tell you how. The Grief Recovery Method® program teaches you how to recover from loss with supportive guidance every step of the way. The Action Program is exactly what it suggests – you working on your own recovery, guided by a Grief Recovery Specialist certified through the Grief Recovery Institute.

There is no need to wait – no matter how recent the loss. The Grief Recovery Method, an action based program, can be used to complete the unfinished business generated by any loss and allow you, the griever, to return to a full state of well-being and wholeness.

What makes Grief Recovery different?

Traditional support groups encourage grievers to talk about their pain, but don’t always offer a path to recovery. During a Grief Support Group you will be guided step-by-step through actions that are proven to heal your heart. Although there are educational components on a group level, you’ll only be sharing what you choose and only to a small group of people who have earned your trust.

Certified Grief Recovery Specialists

Joy & Chelsi are not only experts in The Grief Recovery Method but also have gone through this process to find healing for the loss in their own lives.
