The Grief Recovery Group, which most grieving people think of as a bereavement support and counseling group is just wrapping up in the Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Fountain Valley, Costa Mesa area of Orange County. Yes, I know it sounds a little goofy to cite all those cities, but if you actually live or work here, then you know that they are all within a few blocks of each other. I always have to describe the area and workshop location to grieving clients so they can load it into their Garmins and get here without getting too lost. Because of course, many people grieving the loss of a loved one have a tendency to get a bit distracted. Some of us describe it as not being fully present, not 100% present. That is just to be real about WHAT Grief looks, acts, and feels like.
One widow who worked with me described the work as "Priceless!" when she completed it, she had found it so helpful.
I have been fielding a number of inquiries from a variety of grievers, those dealing with a suicide in the family, parent death, Pet Loss Bereavement, as well as Divorce Grief. Indeed, I do take one-on-one clients to give people more personalized attention and more time.
Next week I will be in Las Vegas right after the Labor Day weekend and meeting with some grievers in the Pahrump, NV area.
Until then, stay well.

Now that I am in Orange County in the Huntington Beach/Newport Beach/Costa Mesa area, as a certified Grief Recovery Specialist, I am being asked if I am offering the Grief Recover Process here locally. Yes I am. Many grievers are searching the internet under such topics as bereavement, grief support, and bereavement support groups. And I am always find widow support groups.
Below please find The Grief Recovery Institute's co-founder, John James, talk about how the Grief Recovery Seminar (he refers to it as the Grief Recovery Outreach Program) differs from "Support" groups whose focus is solely to talk about the loss and the grief.
Best regards,
