Who is the Grief Support Group Program for?
The group support program is a powerful, dynamic, sensible and accessible program that is genuinely for anyone willing to take the necessary actions to help themselves. The Grief Recovery Institute® is the foremost authority on the topic of Grief. The Grief Recovery Method isn’t some theory; it’s proven effective for any type of loss one may experience in life. Here are but a few stories of recovery…
There are more than 43 major life events that result in grief! The Grief Recovery Method is a proven action based program for moving beyond the pain experienced due to:
Death Divorce Pet Loss
Job Loss Loss of Health
Loss of Safety Moving Loss of Faith
Loss of Trust Any Other Loss
The Problem
Grief is the normal and natural emotional response to loss, but most of the information we’ve learned about dealing with loss is intellectual. Although our Grief Support Programs involve some educational elements, effective Grief Recovery must deal with your broken heart, which requires emotional support instead of intellectual explanations.
The Solution
People say you have to let go and move on in your life, but they don’t tell you how. The Grief Recovery Method Group Program teaches you how to recover from loss with supportive guidance every step of the way. The Group Action Program is exactly what it suggests – you working on your own recovery alongside others doing the same work; all being guided by Victoria, a Certified Grief Recovery Method Specialist, Certified by the Grief Recovery Institute. You get guided through the exact same process Victoria went through to process her own losses.
You may feel apprehensive about airing your grief laundry in a group setting. However, from personal experience, the group dynamic adds to the experience tremendously. Everyone is grieving something. It’s in the sharing of stories and heartache, where you find support, well after the group program ends. All that is required is an open mind and commitment. You not only commit to yourself, but you also commit to being present for others in your small group.
Don’t wait any longer; your future you is waiting.
Is it Ever Too Soon to Join a Grief Support Group?
- No! It is never too soon to address your grief. If you broke your leg would you wait to call the doctor? The why wait to get help when you break your heart?
2. You’ve probably heard that time heals all wounds. That piece of misinformation creates the idea that you just have to wait to feel better. Some, like myself, waited thirty years and still didn’t feel better. And I will tell you that not only had time not healed me, but it also compounded the pain. It’s not time that heals, but what you do within time.

Q & A’s About the Group Program
How does the support group work?
In a group program, you’ll be taken through a series of action steps where each week builds on each other. You only share what you want in the large group. It is in small group, during break-out sessions where you share the most and only what you’re open to sharing. Safety in sharing is priority #1.
Is this only for working on the death of a loved one?
All losses are welcome! Death, divorce, and diagnosis are the most common, but there are over 40 losses that cause grief.
What can I expect from our time together?
During each two hour session, you’ll be welcomed into a confidential, non-judgmental space where you’ll be expected to share the truth of your story as it happened to you. You’ll also be expected to complete weekly reading and homework assignments.
From me, you can expect open ears and an open heart ready to receive your story. I’m also available to answer logistical questions about the program.
What should I bring?
A notebook and something to write with. Books and worksheets will be provided for you.
Do I have to attend every week?
Yes! Your participation is key to your recovery! If you miss a group session after the first two weeks, you’ll be asked to leave the program with the opportunity to finish with another group at another time.
How is The Grief Recovery Method® different from therapy?
The Grief Recovery Method® is a series of steps specifically designed to help you recover from major loss within a set time frame. Unlike traditional therapy, The Grief Recovery Method® comes with a pre-established framework, a distinct focus on grief, and a limited number of meetings.
How much does it cost?
The investment for the group program is 450.00 per person for eight weeks and is non-refundable.
(Minimum of four people required for group programs.)
