Testimonials about Grief Recovery
I have dealt with depression for many years. I have participated in counseling, individual and groups, following my father's suicide when I was 16. This class has helped me to make peace with the loss of my father and the circumstances around that. I have learned how to take responsibility for my own happiness and how to make peace with my other losses. This class has done what no counseling has been able to do. I am more peaceful, a better listener, I have more tools in my toolbox so-to-speak for the relationships and interactions I have with others. I am a better person and I can now model better ways for my children. I have found my smile!!

The path this class set in motion for me was beautiful and unexpected at the best and the worst time in my life. I feel so blessed to have had the experience to release the pain of my past, and accept the choices I've made throughout my life. My relationships are richer and the life God has provided for me feels so much more meaningful. I feel empowered and loved.

My name is Meghan and I am in recovery. I have struggled with addition for the last 20 years. I've brought on most of my pain and heartache through bad choices during the dark days of my life and have now adapted the 12-Step program to my life. I've since made that my lifestyle, not just a part of my life and have almost 2 years clean now.
I started to wonder why after all the work I've done through these 12 steps, groups and meetings, why does my heart still ache the way was/did. I know now that grief is something totally separate that absolutely had to be dealt with if I was ever going to make it I had to dig in to the grief that was still there.
Through Ms. Joy's class, I learned how to face that grief, to square off and conquer it. Through the grief recovery method she showed me one of the most valuable 'tools' I possess today and that is how to get through and move past the pain and the loss that so many of us experience. Life is both full of heartache and suffering, pain and losses and, it's full of happiness, Joy, healing and just 'living.' Being alive and 'awake' - happy and truly feeling like I'm becoming 'whole' again are things I wouldn't have thought possible before I took this journey of recovery.
I'm beyond grateful for the guidance and direction that Joy's classes have done for me. If you'll just give it a chance it will work for you too! It was the key that unlocked the door to a new life for me in which I am thriving!
