The Grief Recovery Method® 1 on 1 Support

What is 1-on-1 Grief Recovery?

The 1-on-1 format, Online Support or in Person, 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 loss one may experience in life. Here are but a few stories of recovery…

We aren’t going to tell you, “We know how you feel,” because we don’t. Neither does anyone else. What we will do is provide a safe environment where you will be given specific tools to help you recover from loss and ultimately lead a happier life.

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

Job Loss

Loss of Safety

Divorce

Loss of Health

Moving

Pet Loss

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 1-on-1 Program teaches you how to recover from loss with supportive guidance every step of the way. The 1-on-1 Action Program is exactly what it suggests – you working on your own recovery guided either by Gwen Russo, a Trainer at The Grief Recovery Institute/Advanced Grief Recovery Method Specialist, or one of our other Certified Grief Recovery Method Specialists. Gwen is not only an expert in the Grief Recovery Method but also has gone through this exact process through the loss in her own life.

Gwen along with our other Advanced Grief Recovery Specialists also specialize in the 1 on 1 Online program. Gwen was selected as one of the first GRM Specialists worldwide to deliver this Online 1-on-1 Program.  All our Advanced Specialists have undergone additional training developed specifically to ensure the online delivery of Grief Recovery to be effective and heart centered.

The GRM Online 1-on-1 Program is offered via Zoom. Rest assured, your privacy and the confidentiality of our program are our priority coupled with safely walking you through the tools and actions of the Grief Recovery Method.

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 “aliveness”.

What others are saying…

  • My name is Gene and I suffered from grief for four and one half years before I met Gwen and the help I needed from her. My wife went to heaven at the age of 55. We were together for 40 years, since we were 15 years old, never broke up once. I was devastated to say the least. Chest pains, mind going crazy every joint ached. I met Gwen in an elevator on my way to my yearly WTC physical . I was in the FDNY on Sept 11th. She told me she was on her way to her office where she is a grief specialist. I took her card and called later that day for an appointment. I thought I could handle my grief by myself but realized I needed help. She told me when we met that this wasn’t your usual grief counseling. That I would have homework and I would be done in 8 sessions. It was very hard but after 8 sessions I felt the best I had felt in 5 years! Gwen's method using The Grief Recovery Method works and I wish I had met her a lot sooner.

  • What can I say about my experience through the grief recovery method with Gwen? When I made the decision to do it, I was not in the midst of any grief or crisis. I was stuck “a bit” in one area of my life and well, I leave no stones unturned. And I hold Gwen in very high regard. She is a trusted friend and mentor. Not in a million years did I expect the experience that occurred through this method and their guidance. I threw everything I had into it because that’s how I roll. Also, I wanted to know if this was another avenue that I could recommend to people. I will not lead where I will not go. I learned so so much. The process was quite emotional and a little painful. No pain no gain right? The results were not immediate. The support throughout was astounding, and I should have availed myself to more of it. This cancer crab ???? often suffers unnecessarily alone. I feel freer, I feel lighter, I feel clearer. I now know what’s normal and natural in regards to grief. I feel a full range of emotions with less fear and self judgement and I bonded with people in a meaningful way. I wanted to quit a few times... but my faith in Gwen and commitment to my group kept me going. The results I saw in others was even more astounding than what I myself experienced. Yes! I recommend this experience and in fact feel you owe it to yourself. Thank you Gwen.

What is The Grief Recovery Method® program?

It’s a once-a-week face-to-face or online meeting that gives you the tools, space, and support to work through and release the pain of a major life loss.

What's the difference between one-on-one and group programs?

In a one-on-one program, you’ll work directly with Gwen or one of our amazing Grief Recovery Method Specialists. You’ll be very supported throughout the process.

In a group program, you’ll work with a Specialist as well as others. You’ll hear our stories as well as the stories of others and get support from the group through the later weeks of the program.
