Why To Join A Grief Recovery Counseling Group

Consider a Grief Recovery Group for Your Loss.   Here’s Why

Most of us have had one experience or another with loss. Whether losing a relative to old age or sickness, a family pet’s death or breaking ties with a life-long friend, all of these experiences produce deep agony from within.

As human beings who are more keen to normalcy and predictability, grief is unpredictable and, for most, out of the ordinary. That’s why losing something or someone near and dear to our hearts is so devastating. We struggle to come to terms with our sadness, which often brings on even more displeasure.

The pain is sometimes too great to bear, so we struggle for a sense of regularity or order to our daily lives again. Unfortunately, we have a tendency to rush our loss, bury it or otherwise consume ourselves with it.

Our thoughts become our crutch. Feelings of worthlessness, guilt, blame or anger rise deep from within and our everyday lives become debilitating.

If you’ve recently suffered a loss or have been struggling for quite some time, know that what you’re going through is understood. There is no right or wrong way to grieve.

As a Grief Recovery Specialist, I facilitate an ongoing grief counseling group that honors your grief journey. Through group conversation and support, we explore the emotions associated with your loss and find ways to cope. The grief recovery group works together to find healing and recovery. You’ll find a sense of meaning, purpose and understanding for your grief that you’ve never had before.

I know it might sound scary to open up and experience such raw emotions and old wounds. You’re not alone. Our grief counseling group offers encouragement and non-judgment, which will get you to a better, more manageable place. Taking the first step is often the hardest part but essential for finding inner peace and acceptance.

Will you join us?


Our next Grief Recovery Group will take place June 2016 on Saturdays from 10AM-12PM at our downtown office 101 NE 3rd Ave, Suite 1500, Ft. Lauderdale Fl 33301.  Please contact Dr. Corinne for more details and to register for the group.

Grief Recovery Method Group - Week One March 2016

 We've completed Week One of Our Grief Recovery Method Group...each member of the group is compassionate, courageous, honest and committed!  What a great foundation for the work to come!

Our first week we discussed different types of grief.  Did you know that there are a few different ways grief can be thought of?  Grief can be masked as depression, anxiety, loss of appetite or increase in eating, sleeping too much or not sleeping enough, avoiding friends and family, isolation, and more.  As one group member shared, grief is debilitating.

Unresolved Grief was a new idea for some in our group.  The idea that we can mentally and emotionally stay in a place wishing that things were done or said differently, better or more.  Much of unresolved grief refers to the letting go of the hopes, wishes and dreams we had for our future before our loss, whether it be a death or divorce or relationship ending.

Over the 8 weeks of our Grief Recovery Method Group we look at how to complete the grief we carry with us.  This means to complete our attachment to the pain and isolation associated with our loss.

The Group provides structured, action-oriented steps designed to help any griever resolve and complete any loss.

Contact Us Today - This Group Is Only Open For One More Saturday Before It Closes To New Members!!!!  Two More Groups Are Scheduled To Run Later This Year - Please Send Us Your Name and Contact Info To Hold Your Spot!

Warmly,
