Testimonials

Previously when I’ve gone through breakups I have had to give myself months if not years to recover.  In that time I would lean heavily on friends and be extremely low.  I really didn’t want to go through that again.  Karen gently but clearly took me into the heart of my grief in a constructive and open way.  I truly said goodbye and let the pain out.  Miraculously after working with her, something in me cleared.  The first thing I noticed was a feeling of energy.  Then hunger – I had struggled to eat much since the break up.  And I’ve been clear ever since. I can now look back on the relationship, acknowledge what it gave me and the good parts and see what was wrong and would never have worked. I am even grateful that it ended!

I’m even more grateful to Karen and this method for freeing me to be fully engaged in life again.

I was talking with a dear friend about grief.  My friend was telling me about Karen’s grief recovery method (PLEASE NOTE: the Grief Recovery Method is an established method, created by John W. James over 30 years ago and Karen is trained and certified to practice by this organisation) and what a life changer it was for her.  During our conversation, I admitted that I didn’t’ feel I deal well with grief.

Guided by Karen, I dealt, not only, with recent grief but also grief from many years ago, some of which I didn’t even think of as grief.  Karen’s method takes you on a journey that enables you to deal with grief gently and powerfully.  It most definitely worked for me.  I would most definitely recommend working with Karen.  Grief of all kinds can hit you where it most hurts and finding a way through it can be overwhelming sometimes.  Having a way to work through it is invaluable.

A friend recommended Karen when I mentioned that I was struggling with a relationship where the other person wouldn’t discuss issues that had come between us.  I was very sad about the change in the relationship and had no idea how to let go of the hurt and find a way forward.  Karen was able to help me with this in such a significant way, using a process called the Grief Recovery Method which is a remarkable technique and means that I no longer carry any hurt or ill feeling.

I had four 1 hour long sessions with Karen and through these sessions, Karen first explained what grief and loss are and she then helped me to work through the loss that I had been carrying for years.  I now understand that as well as grief being the feeling when a loved one dies, feelings of loss and grief can be experienced in situations where reality falls short of expectations or in situations where communication breaks down and one can’t have the conversation one would like to have.

Karen is very empathetic, kind and caring and so I found it easy to be open about what I was feeling.  This ability to make me feel at ease and her gift of being able to hear when I was speaking authentically makes her an exceptional Grief  Recovery Specialist.  I am incredibly grateful to have met her and to now also have the tools to be able to work through any feelings of loss or grief I might experience in the future.

Karen took me through the process of the Grief Recovery Method in stages, using her own personal experience to build up trust, making it easy for me to share my grief with her.  Having completed the process with Karen on three losses I feel like I have not only been released from the weight of some significant baggage, but also that I have some new life skills to go forward more lightly.
