I look at this in two big ways: approach and outcomes.

Traditional grief support often:

  1. Focuses mostly on symptom relief and “stages”
  2. Keeps spirituality and afterlife evidence off-limits
  3. Stays short-term and clinical, with less lived-experience guidance

My Grief2Growth approach:

  1. Is built from my own loss of my daughter plus hundreds of client stories
  2. Combines evidence-based coping with afterlife and consciousness research
  3. Uses my GEMS framework (Gratitude, Exercise/Sleep, Mindfulness, Self-care) to create daily, practical change
  4. Aims not just to “survive” grief, but to grow spiritually and meaningfully from it

Where do you feel most let down or stuck by traditional grief support right now?
