After teaching Stress Management courses in communities and GP surgeries alongside facilitating support groups for people with Fibromyalgia, I started to realise that most people had experienced some form of grief and loss.
When lockdown then happened and the levels of mental health issues were rising, I noticed even more people struggling with grief.
I decided to learn more about Grief and discovered The Grief Recovery Method.
Little did I know then that I was going to need The Grief Recovery Method 2 years later when my son died – I am forever grateful to have discovered The Grief Recovery Institute for my own healing and to be able to bring it to the world.
Grief Recovery Institute is an organization specializing in helping people with emotional pain from experiencing grief and loss in their lives, which was set up and developed by using The Grief Recovery Method.
It originated in America and now has Grief Recovery Specialists all over the world, and at the writing of this, I am only 1 of 2 Specialists in Wales and one of only 25 actively practising specialist in the UK.
Its mission focuses on disseminating information about grief and the possibility of recovery from the impact of death, divorce, and other significant emotional losses through evidence based actions.
