GRIEF RECOVERY METHOD ™

100% OF US ARE GRIEVERS.

Read that again.

All of us are grievers. And yet … it can be a very uncomfortable, taboo subject.

The good news is, grief has been in the spotlight (thanks, Covid19) - and, as a grief advocate, i’m ecstatic about this. I’m excited to have more conversations about real grief, with real people.

Grief is something we will all experience in our lifetime. Grief moves through our bodies, our families and communities, and we need to feel that. If we don’t - that energy becomes stuck. We may struggle with our relationships, or become physically or mentally ill.

But one thing remains true ; we all have, and will, experience loss.

Perhaps we lost our sense of safety when our family moved and we had to change schools. Perhaps our heart was broken when a romantic relationship ended. Maybe we’ve lost a job and therefore financial security. Perhaps a loved one has died.

Or, perhaps we feel the grief that has stretched through our family line, a tapestry of lineage that might include forced migration, enslavement or displacement.

Whatever the loss, we have not been taught how to navigate the complexity of grief as it relates to how we navigate our lives.

Many people think the only option is to suffer. That it’s the fate they must endure forever. Many feel that they will be bitter and joyless forever.

That is not the case. You have options that can move you out from under this cloud.

I went through profound grief when I lost my dad in 2014. There was no where to turn and nothing to help. Adding to that, during my father’s illness I underwent multiple IVF’s, lost a baby to miscarriage and failed at surrogacy. My husband and I decided to end our 14 year marriage. When I lost my beloved dog at age 14 in 2020, I was familiar with the black hole of sadness - all this while dealing with the multiple losses experienced as a result of Covid19.

As an Advanced Grief Recovery Method Specialist ™, Certified by The Grief Recovery Insititute ™, I am passionate about bringing this proven, evidence-based and actionable program to my clients to help them move through their grief to the other side. The losses will always be with you, but you can deal with the pain and find joy in your life, again.

Just because we haven’t been taught how to deal with our grief, doesn’t mean it’s too late to learn.

WHAT CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY:

“Kylie was incredible. An extraordinary listener, patient, focused and vulnerable. She followed the structure of the program and her confidence in the process was comforting and reassuring. She intuitively heard what I was saying and also what I wasn't saying. Her questions were insightful and truly helped me see where my own patterns and blinders had been operating.  She always let me know that I was welcome to email her with any questions that might come up during the week between sessions and the one time I was floundering and did email her reply was thoughtful, practical, wise and incredibly helpful. She is a gifted listener/facilitator/guide.  She is poised, attentive, warm, welcoming and strong. Kylie respected how busy evenings could be and honoured the 1 hour timeframe. She kept things moving at a wonderful pace so we could cover/uncover what we needed to and not sideline unhelpfully into prolonged narratives. This is an impressive skill. I would highly recommend her. She is approachable, effective and has a calming presence. 

Would I recommend Kylie to someone who could benefit from this method? Absolutely wholeheartedly”.

"I am very grateful for this program and everything I learned through it. Working with Kylie, I felt that she was able to offer me a safe and supportive space to process all the complicated emotions of losing my dad to SUDEP (sudden unexpected death in epilepsy). Kylie modeled compassion and empathy while I was sharing every step of my experience in the program and that helped me to do the same for myself throughout this process. Having since completed the program, I feel better having said goodbye to my dad in a way that fully expressed and represented his significance in my life. I know through this program that although saying goodbye is hard, it doesn't mean that I have or will ever lose my connection to my dad, it just means that I can give myself the gift of remaining open to life again."
