Confronting grief – whether over a pet or a loved one – and how to turn grief into a means to greater self awareness

Thirty years ago, John James founded the Grief Recovery Institute as a solution when he couldn’t find the resources he needed to deal with his own overwhelming grief at the death of his infant son. The Institute’s mission is to provide tools and assist in grief recovery in a rapid manner. Since its founding the institute now has centers in Canada, England, Sweden, and Mexico.

John is internationally recognized as one of the world’s foremost authorities on grief. He is an adjunct faculty instructor at UCLA, the University of Southern California and Chapman University.  He has also been a leader in training veterans and military family members on confronting grief over lost loved ones on military bases around the nation.  He is the co-author of four major books on confronting grief including “The Grief Recovery Handbook” and most recently “The Grief Recovery Handbook for Pet Loss.”  His website is GriefRecoveryMethod.com
