EXPLORE YOUR NATURAL TENDENCIES FOR NURTURING PERSONAL GROWTH AFTER LOSS, BASED ON YOUR PERSONALITY TRAITS.
I know the shattered world created by the death of loved ones, as I nearly lost myself in it. Over time and through hard work, my darkest moments sparked a passion within me. I became determined to find a way forward for myself and my family, while also exploring how we can grow and discover new meaning and purpose in the aftermath of loss.
For more several years, I have combined practical experience with thorough academic research, earning a Ph.D. in psychology with a focus on personal growth following the death of a loved one. This research-driven approach, combined with deep compassion, forms the foundation of the Growth After Loss Initiative Program and the Growth After Loss Podcast. These resources are designed to help people like you discover hope and explore possibilities for the next steps in your journey after experiencing loss.
