How often do grievers hear "Time heals all wounds" or that they should "Be strong?" How many times do grievers try to replace what they have lost with something new? Unresolved grief does not just go away. While grief is the normal and natural reaction to significant emotional loss of any kind, most of the information passed on within our society about dealing with grief is not normal, natural, or helpful.
Recovery from loss is accomplished by discovering and completing all of the undelivered communications that accrue in relationships. Grief Recovery is a systematic program that helps grievers complete emotional pain and regain control of their lives. Ann Tanner, LCSW, is a Grief Recovery Specialist. She provides counseling to individuals, couples and families struggling with significant changes in their lives. Ann offers Grief Recovery workshops to teach people how to move beyond loss and to enjoy their lives again.
