Never again wonder what more you could have done for someone who has experienced significant emotional loss.
What is The Grief Recovery Method? The Action programme that allows you to help others move beyond significant emotional loss As a professional in the funeral industry you appreciate just how important saying and doing the right thing by your families is. The funeral or memorial is a crucial step in the path to recovery and done correctly can make a huge positive impact on their path to recovery. Sadly it is only one step and from there most grievers are expected to work out how to take the next steps on their own. Society does very little to prepare us for loss and few of realise how badly prepared we are until we have to face it. The Grief Recovery Method isn't counselling nor is it therapy. Grievers are not broken and do not need to be fixed. They do need to be guided towards the correct actions that will move them beyond the loss rather than bury their feelings and "learn to live with it."

Next Steps Ask as many questions as you like - we're here to ensure our programme is right for you Grief is a very human emotion which is why we only train face to face and never online or from books. If you would like to work with grievers you will first of all want to know if you'd like to work with us which is why we suggest a telephone consultation to find out more. There is absolutely no heavy sell. This would be pointless as we only want to work with you if you really want to work with us. To book a consultation call or email us to arrange a mutually convenient time and we'll go from there. We regularly run open programmes around the country with an average group size of 12 people. Alternatively if you have at least 6 people we can bring the training to you. If you have a dedicated training it is also possible to customise part of the training to your specific business needs - while the Grief Recovery Method doesn't change getting the best of it in your environment may.
