If you're suffering from simple grief - which is sadness because of your current loss - you probably don't need my help.

But if you are overwhelmed with a tidal wave of anguish, or chronically debilitated to the point where your life isn't working because of your loss or losses - standard grief counseling is not going to be of much help to you.  Effective Grief Recovery Coaching is what you need.

Why?  Because standard grief counseling begins with the basic premise that you are functionally able to think and act as an adult.  But  - when you are suffering from complicated grief, you simply cannot.

That's why the standard therapeutic approach, the five stage model, and all the other basic ideas just didn't work for me - and might not work for you, either.  Someone suffering from complicated grief is living in a regressed state of mind - like a wounded child more than like a functional adult.  Unless the person can shift UP from the regressed child state to a functional adult state, grief recovery won't happen.

You CAN recover from complicated grief - but you're going to need the right kind of help to do it. 

That kind of help is the specific focus of my coaching work - and it creates results that my clients describe in glowing terms, with deep gratitude.  Here's an example:

I feel like I have just woken up from a dream - or was it a nightmare?  In the last six years - including 9/11 - I lost my mom, dad, step-mom, step-dad (all right after 9/11) and then a significant relationship.

After all this loss, my life was like moving through quicksand.  My work days were long,  My every effort and every action took significant amounts of energy and produced little or no results.

I found Paul on line at his site, and we had an initial conversation that was like coming home to myself. 

Paul's coaching took me out of the quicksand onto dry land. There is a power and clarity in his work that illuminated and grounded forces related to my grief that I couldn't hear, see or feel.

His coaching put a face on those forces, giving me back my power to act without the weight of my grief and losses.

My best to you,
