Good Grief: The Memory Circle Method

Becoming a Grief Informed Therapist

Presented by Barri Leiner Grant, Chief Grief Officer® of The Memory Circle

We live in a grief denying society, bent on seeking and serving a quick fix when it comes to loss. Death and dying have become taboo topics outside of a clinician’s office – and often inside the halls and walls of our most trusted advisors. How can we bring grief out of hiding and into the daily vernacular of our lives and practices, so that loss of every incarnation has a better place to live in modern day society? 

Barri Leiner Grant, Chief Grief Officer® of The Memory Circle, will share her proprietary tools and techniques for crafting a grief tending practice for you and your clients. She will help to debunk the many myths about bereavement that exist today and offer solution-based systems to craft the movement your clients need to find long term healing as they learn to live with loss. 

Becoming a more grief informed clinician offers those living with loss permission to move through a difficult time with the security they come to count on from you.

Learning Objectives:

  • Become more grief literate.

  • Debunk grief myths.

  • Explore tools and techniques for grief tending.

  • Learn how we live with loss.

ABOUT

Barri Leiner Grant

Chief Grief Officer ® & Certified Grief Coach (ICF)

The Memory Circle was born from a desire to make the grief cycle a shared experience. A place to tell your tale because it reinforces that your loss matters. As a coach, I help facilitate and explore ways to remember and reflect on the lives of loved ones lost and loss of every incarnation, through writing, intuition, dreams, movement and imaginings as we navigate the long arc of loss through one-on-one meetings and in support groups. 

I have combined my background as a yoga and meditation teacher with my personal mission to heal and help the bereaved. 

My former work as an author and editor has made the art of visual storytelling a centerpiece of my life for decades. I use a combination of these with my extensive grief training to create a one of a kind experience. 

I work with firms of all sizes to develop best practices around bereavement leave and advocate for national bereavement leave policy change and greater awareness on the effects of grief in the home and workforce. 

My workshops and gatherings are bathed in a variety of exercises and modalities to release and metabolize what we are holding — while always keeping the spirit and celebration of those lost and loved, alive. Read More here.
