I just feel so much better and now feel lifted.
"The GR timeline written as it is is so helpful. Its powerful! In healing and acknowledging the grief, loss and coping mechanisms and effects on health and life. Now I can see all the good times and the great stuff that happened in my whole life... The moments of joy from my life are rising above the pain that kept joy buried. Its the weight of carrying the pain loss and grief that kept me from seeing all the good moments and love that was there too. This is a very powerful, heavy, effective healing program Lynda. I think with all the years of psychologists and counselors this process was the most effective in healing and changing patterns. Thank you Lynda, Allison McGrath, BC.

If you are experiencing grief from any source, I would highly recommend The Grief Recovery Method and Lynda Dobbin-Turner.
"As a person of a ‘certain age’, I have had my share of losses in life. I am also someone who has done a lot of personal work over the years and generally feel quite self-evolved. I had taken the hospice training and over 300+ hours of counselling trainings. I thought I knew about grief and that there was a slow process to working through it. When the opportunity to work with Lynda presented itself, I had just lost the last member of my nuclear family. Although married and with many great friends and other relatives, there was a part of me that suddenly felt very alone in life. That core ‘tribe’ that was with me through my formative years was no longer here. Over the six hours that Lynda and I worked together, she took me to an understanding and way to express my grief and move through it that I would not have known to do. We have all had so many messages about how we’re supposed to cope and I found The Grief Recovery Method to be able to clear away those messages and be replaced with a more honest way to look at my experience. I still have moments with tears when my family comes to mind, but there is also joy and contentment with the new relationship I carry on with them - perhaps one more honest than I ever had when they were alive.
Lynda was a great person to walk my journey with as she is no stranger to deep grief herself. Our mutual sharing is a bond we now have. She was a gentle, loving presence that walked beside me, holding my hand, through this journey through grief. Thank you, Lynda, for sharing your wisdom and caring with me."

Lynda brought my sparkle back..
"I came to Lynda feeling overwhelmingly "stuck" in many layers of grief. I had no idea where to start but I knew I had to do something for my own mental, emotional and physical well-being. Lynda's empathetic personality and intuitive approach lends itself well to the Grief Recovery Methods she uses in her sessions. I felt safe and free to explore what I was feeling, and I also discovered many things that were hidden in great depths. Lynda helped me re-define my understanding of grief and gave me invaluable tools that have a lifetime warranty. It was truly, a life-changing experience for me. Thank you so much Lynda for bringing my sparkle back."

She is fantastic !
Hi, my name’s Jean-Pierre from Switzerland, and I want highly recommend Lynda to everybody.
I’ve worked with Lynda in Boston in 2011, and found her approach really refreshing. Since I worked with her, I’ve learned how to communicate clearly with others peoples, be realistic about the things I can take on, and most important, learned how to say ‘no’ to peoples who won’t be a good fit for me.
Lynda is a great inspiration. I have better private-life boundaries after working with her, and enjoy my life much more.
She is fantastic !
Cordiales salutations

...respecting others views and encouraging them to find and re-energize their passion on their own.
About Lynda,
In Boston, I was wondering what is it this lady was doing on the first day of the program. To my surprise, with the time pass by I was looking for her, what happened she is not be seen. I realized that her charming personality, smile, and very balanced and sharp focus on the learning could not be ignored as those attributes are very close to my values in identifying an individual who is committed and results oriented.
With more involvement, I was surprised to learn her listening skills, analytical skills, empathy over others, respecting others views and encouraging them to find and re-energize their passion on their own. Her interactive feedback with action plans for success could not be avoided with the fullest efforts of mine. That really, really helped me in finding and fixing my own vision and lines them with my passion.
Despite the above she did not forget to provide the relaxation at the most appropriate times to re-energize our self. I felt this so much so as I was badly ill within the first three days of the program.
Lynda, If I am given an opportunity to work with you again, I am certain that I will not have second thought but to take it. Because the management styles and management is changing towards value driven exercise which you project throughout your presence in the program.

In different coaching sessions with Lynda everything got very clear.
I had the pleasure to meet Lynda during a 5 day Leadership course in Boston.
At that time I faced the situation that I was not sure how I would like to continue in my professional career. It felt very strange to somehow know that I would like to change something, but a the same time not being able to make the first step.
In different coaching sessions with Lynda everything got very clear. Although I was quite nervous to open up to somebody I have not met before, it turned out to be the perfect step. Talking to someone who is really listening, asking the right questions and empowering me in my ideas got me to my "Sweet Spot".
Today I have a clear idea of what I want to do for the next years and I am able to take action. It just feels great to have that big rock out of the
way! Without the sessions with Lynda I would not have been able to resolve that.
Thank you very much Lynda!
