Grief Coaching Services
Grieving the loss of a partner is a deeply personal journey—and there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. At Widowhood Recovery, we’re committed to helping you find the right kind of support based on your journey.
Grief coaches bridge the gap between emotional pain and purposeful living. We’re not therapists—and that’s the point. If you’re past the rawest early stages of grief and are now wondering how to move forward, rediscover meaning, or build a new identity, a certified grief coach can be the perfect next step. Personalized one-on-one Grief Coaching is available in-person or online. See Grief Coach vs Therapist comparison chart.
Private grief coaching sessions will:
- Provide support as you navigate real-life challenges
- Clarify your goals
- Rebuild routines
- Explore new growth after loss
Our Grief Coaches have walked the grief journey themselves and worked with widows and widowers for over four years. We are here to support your next chapter with empathy, structure, and practical tools.
One-on-One Grief Coaching
Personalized 40-minute sessions – $50 each.
You’re welcome to schedule as many or as few sessions as you need. There are no contracts, no commitments—just support when you need it.
At Widowhood Recovery, we believe that there is great benefit in shared healing. Our Group Grief Coaching Sessions provide a safe and supportive space where widows and widowers can come together to share their stories, learn coping tools, and build connections with others who truly understand.
Each session is guided by one of our experienced grief coaches and is designed to offer encouragement, structure, and hope as you navigate your healing journey.
Group Grief Coaching Sessions
Our group sessions offer connection, support, and healing in a shared space with others who understand.
Scheduling and cost are based on group size and participant availability.
