Hello!
Thank you for connecting with us. We are passionate about helping adults and youth of all ages improve their ability to cope with loss. We use a coaching approach to help grievers recognize and articulate their needs, assess where they are in the grieving process, help them heal from their loss by engaging in multiple self-assessing activities, and we help grievers establish a plan to move on in life. Our coaching approach is described as compassionate, interactive, and sensitive. Each person is treated with a high degree of respect, understanding, and strict confidentiality.
All dialog and other support strategies are tailored to meet the specific needs of each participant. Sessions are planned and designed to help each person investigate how life experiences have impacted his/her present situation. In addition, we create an inviting and non-judgmental environment.
What We Have
Our Coaching
ONLINE GRIEF COACHING
One advantage that coaching presents is that it helps an individual realize his/her strengths. That is, it helps a person not to overestimate or underestimate his/her present situation as well as help him/her get reestablished through self-care support.
ONLINE COUPLE COACHING
It is seldom an easy task to progress through the grieving process. However, going through the experience as a couple can help make the pain more bearable.
ONLINE FAMILY COACHING
Family grief coaching is a model whereby family members join with a coach to address grieving. An objective is to learn to accept and adjust to the loss as a family unit, rather than in isolation.
About Me
Why Most People Get
Excited About Coaching
The loss of loved ones has been identified as the most devastating stressor that an individual experiences in life. I have attended and participated in funeral services of friends, colleagues, and family members. Some of the losses were much more painful than others.
In 1968, I answered a telephone call at 2:20 a. m. from my older sister. About 550 miles away, she gave my mother the painful news that the third oldest child in our family was killed in a car accident. I was confused, in a state of disbelief, and was very upset when my mother uncontrollably started to cry and deny that he was dead. As a young and inexperienced teenager, I needed support, but none was available. Such was my introduction to bereavement, mourning, and the grieving process. It was in 1974 that I started to investigate how to help those who were grieving. Since then, (1974) I’ve experienced the loss of both parents, two other brothers, and two older sisters.

Success Testimonials
I was distraught and did not know where to turn for support. I talked to my colleagues and members of my church about how I was feeling. After talking with them, I felt worse. A few even told me that I needed to get over myself and move on with my life. It appeared that no one understood my feelings. I became depressed and even wondered if I wanted to go on with life. Fortunately, I came into contact with Grief Relief In Progress. I was able to understand that my feelings were normal. I got some immediate relief from my pain. I regained hope and had a positive outlook after the first session. I am grateful for the professional and encouraging help I got.

I want to say thank you for helping me through my bereavement. I was left with three children to raise when my wife died. I am 31 years old and was barely making it financially when my wife died. I didn’t know where to turn to. I asked myself how in the world was I going to make it? A friend told me about your company. I am glad for that because you helped me through a tough time in my life. I am not where I want to be, but I am a lot better than I was because of your help. I have hope and I am not depressed anymore. You were great! Me and my children thank you a lot.

I thought I had it together and then I lost my mom. We were very close, and we did so many things together. My mom had been dead four months before I heard about you. Sometimes I thought I was losing my mind. You helped me get a hold of myself and I was able pull myself together. I just wanted you to know that I am doing much better thanks to your help. I wanted to encourage you to keep up the good work.
