January 11, 2011 ended the most recent Grief Recovery Outreach Group.  Quotes from the participants are below.

"I really felt listened to.  This process has given me a way to deal with other losses in my life."  

"The process really showed me the importance of quietly listening."

"This recovery group helped me greatly deal with loss and will help with all the others I will encounter in life."

"This process is deep but good to get it down on paper and open up to someone that has been there also.  It has opened my eyes."

"It was good to be listened to and I felt people really cared about what I was saying.  I wish we had more time.  I wish we could have talked and got to know a little more about each other.  Good process."

"I really learned the difference between how to properly grieve and myths about grieving."

"Being able to discuss my feelings about my grief in complete confidence has helped me with my process of grieving."

Grief Recovery Outreach Program

 One of the least acknowledged and least addressed concerns in our society is    Grief   the normal and natural reaction to loss.

Whether your loss is from:
• Death of a loved one • Divorce or end of a relationship
• Loss of career • Loss of a substance/gambling dependency • Loss of trust • Loss of dreams • Loss of security • Loss of health

Grief will continue to affect our lives and the lives of those around us adversely when we are forced to accept the many Myths About Grief:

Time heals all wounds
Replace the loss
Grieve alone
Be strong for others
Bury your feelings

The Outreach program will guide those who wish to resolve their loss issues and move beyond their grief to a richer quality of life. As a result of participating in this program your life may become more enriched, more alive and more fulfilled than ever before. This 10-week program will be conducted by:
Gina Fricke, LCSW, CCGC, NCGC II, Certified Grief Recovery Specialist
