“A highly effective and widely recognized resource for people after a significant loss. The Centre for the Grief Journey was established in 1992 (by Dr. Bill Webster) to assist and support people in a grieving process after a significant loss and to provide meaningful resources and helps.” - Center For Loss & Life Transition, with Dr. Alan Wolfelt www.centerforloss.com
“What is Grief? The word “grief” is the simple shorthand we use for what is actually a highly complex mixture of thoughts and feelings. Grief is everything we think and feel inside after someone we love dies or leaves or something we are attached to goes away. In other words, grief is the instinctive human response to loss.”
Dr. Wolfelt’s website is an extensive resource for those grieving a loss.
