The Grief Recovery Method
The Grief Recovery Method®
You don’t have to navigate grief alone.
Grief can leave us carrying pain, unanswered questions, and words left unsaid. I believe that gently revisiting these difficult memories and emotions can be a key part of healing and moving forward.
Through the Grief Recovery Method, I offer a safe, compassionate space to explore your loss, express what has remained unspoken, and begin to create greater clarity, peace and emotional freedom.
The Grief Recovery Method® is a structured, action-based program designed to help people heal from the emotional pain of loss, by addressing the unresolved feelings and “unfinished business” connected to it.
Any kind of loss
Grief isn’t only caused by death.
The method recognises that grief can also follow divorce, separation, illness, career changes, estrangement, relocation, or the loss of hopes and dreams.
It provides a safe and guided process for exploring emotions such as sadness, anger, guilt, regret, and longing.
“Time and correct action will lead to emotional recovery. One without the other is not going to do that.” The Grief Recovery Method

The 7-Session Grief Recovery Program
A structured, one-to-one program to help you work through unresolved grief, express what has been left unsaid, and begin moving forward.
This includes seven individual sessions, guided exercises, resources and support throughout your journey.
The right tools. The right actions. A supported path forward to help you:
- Understand and acknowledge your grief
- Express what has been left unsaid
- Take action to complete the emotional business left unfinished in important relationships
- Find relief from the unresolved emotions connected to past and present relationships
- Begin moving forward while honouring what you have lost
You don’t have to forget to move forward.
Healing isn’t about leaving the past behind or forgetting someone you love. It’s about finding a way to move forward while honouring your experience and what matters to you.
If you’re ready to take the first step, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.
Jodie’s care and love through and after the grief recovery process has empowered me to develop and learn to use tools to face my grief head on… I can finally remember the happy times, laugh and experience joy, rather than being smothered relentlessly by guilt and loss. I have my zest for life back and am truly kicking goals.

My journey from grief recovery to Reclaiming You
“Grief recovery was foundational to my journey. Reclaiming You grew from what I discovered next.” – Jodie
You’ve experienced loss, and perhaps you’ve done important work to process your grief. But you may still feel lost in who you are now, unsure how to move forward or wondering whether it’s okay to want more from life.
You might be carrying guilt, expectations about how you should grieve, or the fear that finding happiness again means leaving the person you love behind.
I understand this journey because I’ve lived it myself.
The Grief Recovery Method was foundational in my own journey, giving me a structured way to work through the emotional pain of loss. But as I continued, I discovered there were other questions to explore: Who am I now? What feels true for me? And how do I create a future that feels like mine?
Those questions became the foundation of Reclaiming You.
Through UNLEARN, RECLAIM and CREATE, I help people challenge the rules they’ve been given about grief, question what they’re carrying, rediscover their identity and choices, and begin to imagine new possibilities for their lives.
This isn’t about forgetting the person you love or leaving them behind. It’s about recognising that your loss is part of your story, but it doesn’t have to define your future.
Reclaiming You helps you explore what comes next for you, so you can carry the love forward, reclaim yourself and create a future that feels like your own.
