Grief Support Made Easy: A Facilitators’ Guide to Companion Grief

Grief work can be intimidating for some.

That’s why I’m looking for helpers, healers, paraprofessionals and therapists who are motivated to really know what grief work is about; who want to know how understanding grief, can impact and bring their healing practice to another level, and who have a heart to companion the grieving but who fear doing it wrong, or not having the practical tools or interventions, to support the broken hearted.

This is for you if

  • you feel deeply and sometimes gets overwhelmed by wanting to help but don’t feel fully confident in how to best provide the help grievers needs.

  • you have experienced the death of a client, witnessed a friend, family member or colleague suffer a significant loss and have ever wondered what are the best resources to help those in grief.

  • you want to make a difference in the world of someone suffering from loss and question if their grief reactions are “normal”

  • you seek guidance from others hoping that the resources that you have been provided are vetted because it comes from a community that you know, love and trust.

This is not for you if

  • you are seeking a certification in grief counseling through this course. This program isn’t developed for that, yet.

  • you are not part of an interdisciplinary team that works in or within the mental health field.

  • or if you don’t have a background in mental health (a layman’s course will be available soon).

If you struggle with

  • saying I’m sorry for your loss because it doesn’t sound authentic and you are wanting to do more

  • knowing where the line crosses from normal grief into complicated grief

  • that feeling of doubt that you don’t know enough to not do any harm

then this e-course is designed just for you!

I created this course after coaching and consulting with individuals in the field who had the same questions and concerns that you are experiencing.

This was put together so that you can ditch the shame and worry about doing it wrong!

I sharing experiences so you really have an understanding with concrete examples.

It’s time to address grief illiteracy and move into how you can strengthen the amazing skills you already possess.

Time to squash the never ending questions about how others do it and begin to empower yourself to help the grieving with the values and compassion you already have.  

I’ll be honest I’ve been on the giving and receiving end of grief avoidance, both personally and professionally. I know first hand how crappy it feels to be looking for help and not getting it. I also know the shame and regret of having someone turn to me and me not knowing how to best help them. 

That is why I am giving you the behind the scenes access to my practice and my experience with complicated and pervasive grief; so you can keep your clients, feel confident in supporting this part of their needs and understand grief at a deeper level; while taking the pressure off of believing you could be doing it wrong.
