a new found freedom…

I knew I had a block that was preventing me from moving forward with my Dad’s death which occurred two years ago. I had been through a lot of therapy yet I was still seeking answers and was ready to get to the core of the issue. I really was afraid I was going to be in pain the rest of my life.

As compared to traditional therapy, The Healthy Grieving process was an intentional, structured, and had an end goal. I was guided in a safe environment that allowed me to peel back the layers at a depth I have never been before. The process afforded me an avenue to explore some very painful core issues regarding my relationship with my Dad. The benefit is now I have a better relationship with him.

The Healthy Grieving process has allowed me to be more present and joyful with my family. The dread and the longing for my Dad to be around has subsided and I often feel the loving support and benevolent presence of my father’s spirit, which is so beautiful. I feel like I have wind underneath my wings with a new found freedom and an excitement for my life and all of its possibilities.

gave me the power to take back my life…

My mom died when I was 18 years old. I remember blaming God for taking my mother away and I used alcohol and drugs to numb my pain. Whenever life presented a triggering experience such as a wedding, I would feel devastated and become depressed. This was the way I experienced the death of my Mom throughout my life. Twenty years later, I was willing to look at the death of my mom in the grieving process with David. The results have been life changing. The huge burden of carrying around the pain and grief is gone. I can now actually remember my mother in all the good times rather than the negative experiences I was holding onto. I no longer hold myself back from experiencing my self in life by getting depressed. This process made me wish I could have done this twenty years ago. It gave me the power to take my life back, never realizing how deeply it affected my whole entire life. And, it opened the doors to a greater understanding of my self.
