How do the 8- and 12-week programs work?

Usually Grief Recovery program sessions are scheduled at once per week. Acceleration through the Grief Recovery program is available at 2 sessions/week, but no faster. A copy of the Grief Recovery Handbook (either eBook or paperback) are included in the fees and we'll work together through each of the elements. I'll be demonstrating each one before you prepare and take the next action. Both you and I will agree to 100% confidentiality for the whole course of the program, and then beyond.

no one I know has died, but i feel like i am grieving... is this possible?

It truly is possible that you are grieving. Did you know that there are 40 types of loss events that may be experienced? Death is only one of them. So, yes, even if no one around you has died, it could be that you are grieving a different type of loss.

Is this therapy?... as the leader, are you a therapist?

As a Grief Recovery Specialist, I am primarily an educator, demonstrator, and guide.

The program is not therapy. I am not a counselor or therapist. 
The outcome may prove to be therapeutic.

Our work together is confidential. Both of us agree to 100% confidentiality in order to move forward with each step of the work.
