Basic Grief Recovery Method® Program
The Grief Recovery Method® Program is an evidence-informed, action-oriented approach designed to move individuals forward from the emotional pain of loss. Created by John W. James and Russell Friedman through The Grief Recovery Institute, the program provides practical tools and guided exercises that support emotional recovery after any life-changing event.
While many people associate grief with death, grief can also follow:
- an emotional loss of any kind
- the conflicting emotions of change
- things we wished had been different
- our unrealized dreams and expectations
- things left unsaid or unheard
The program supports individuals experiencing any of the over 40 causes of loss, for example:
- loss of self
- health challenges
- loss of a loved one
- major life transitions
- animal companion loss
- loss of trust, safety, or faith
- career or financial changes
- loss of pregnancy or infertility
- estrangement or family conflict
- friendship or relationship changes
Unlike traditional support groups that focus mainly on sharing experiences, the Grief Recovery Method® Program offers a structured process that teaches participants how to identify unresolved grief, explore the impact of past losses, and take meaningful steps toward emotional completion.
Through guided exercises, reflection, and supportive conversation, participants learn how to:
- better understand grief and its effects
- let go of limiting beliefs around grief
- address unfinished emotional pain
- improve emotional well-being and resilience
- reconnect with hope and purpose
Programs are delivered individually, online, within a safe, compassionate, and confidential environment.
The goal of the Grief Recovery Method® Program is not to forget a loss, but to help individuals move forward with greater peace, clarity, and emotional freedom.
Tammy cautions you that your success is dependent upon your participation and willingness to apply yourself to the homework assignments.

8-Week Group Grief Recovery Method
“Interactive workshops are a safe place to examine what you have been taught about loss, to explore your beliefs about grief, and guide you in completing a set of actions that will enable you to move forward in your life with hope. Once equipped with these tools, you will be able to work through other losses that you may have experienced in your past.” The Grief Recovery Method
8 weeks, 2 hours per week
6-Week Group Grief Recovery Method Specific to Children
“When Children Grieve is offered for adults to help children deal with death, divorce, pet loss, moving and other losses. To watch a child grieve and not know what to do is a profoundly difficult experience for parents, teachers, and caregivers. Yet, there are guidelines for helping children develop a lifelong healthy response to loss.” The Grief Recovery Method
6-Week Group Grief Recovery Method Specific to Pet Loss
“You may have discovered, there is very little effective guidance for grieving pet owners. Compounding the problem is the fact that friends – and even family – often do not understand or accept the intensity of the grief you feel when your pets die. That sad fact makes many pet grievers isolate from human contact for fear they will be judged.” The Grief Recovery Method
“Tammy has changed my life. The Grief Recovery Method is not easy, but it’s very rewarding and illuminating. I’ve struggled for decades, with my past and my losses. Tammy is a fabulous grief facilitator and holds gentle space for the griever. I would highly recommend Tammy and this course. I’ve left her information with my family doctor. JUST DO IT!”
