I’m Tanya Jenkins, a Grief Recovery Specialist, and you’re probably here because you’re suffering from a broken heart right now. Or maybe you have painful memories of a loss that happened years ago.
It may have been caused by the death of a loved family member (or not-so-loved), or friend, or beloved pet. You may feel a hole in your existence because the companion you had, and the opportunity to directly interact with them, is no longer available. Maybe your grief has been caused by divorce, job loss, estrangement, empty nest, changes in health or any number of other reasons. Intangible losses within your grief, such as the loss of safety, faith, trust are no less painful.
Using The Grief Recovery Method®, a step-by-step process, you’ll overcome feeling stuck, numb, or the burden of pain from any type of loss. Together we’ll lift the weight of unresolved grief. I’ll provide for you a safe, judgment-free environment to share and look at the losses that are affecting your life.
Recovery is about feeling better. Recovery includes feeling courage to engage in relationships again, experiencing happiness, and a willingness to move forward in all areas of your life. We go through the program together.
“After my wife passed away, I was lost. I was extremely depressed and terrified about a future raising our two teenaged children alone. Tanya was such a great help. Going through this program helped me tremendously. I’ve been able to move forward and be there for my children. I would definitely recommend working with Tanya to anyone struggling with the grief from a loss.”

“The healing from this work is profound and exponential. There is still an ache for Maddie, my Maltipoo, BUT I can face it without fear and now I have tools to work through the tough moments. I am so grateful for you, Tanya, and for this process. I appreciate our sessions and miss your kindness and generosity. You create such an open, calm space.”
My Story
Years ago, I first started contemplating grief recovery when I watched my friend go through a divorce. Hers, like many, was full of deception, confusion, and pain. A therapist and psychiatrist helped her wrap her mind around her husband’s addiction and the reality that her marriage was really over…
What Is Recovery
We all know that loss happens. As adults, we intellectually understand that we will be mourners multiple times throughout our lives. Yet when those losses happen, it’s emotional, not intellectual. We feel it. No matter how much logic and brain power we use, we still feel the pain and sadness. That’s because you have a broken heart, not a broken brain—
How To Help
When we hear the news about another person’s loss, we may not know what to say, or what can be done. We want to be helpful, yet we were never taught how to support another during grief.
I’m honored to have received this review from a colleague:
“I want to encourage anyone needing support around loss to work with Tanya Jenkins, Grief To Recovery. I have referred my own clients to Tanya for her help in processing grief, and I’ve received glowing feedback from participants in her program. The Grief Recovery Method is a great container for holding the work, and Tanya’s gentle and skillful facilitation have had a far-reaching and transformative impact on my clients.”
