Support and guidance in a time of need

Having had three painful losses close together in the last couple of years the grief works app has been a much needed regular pillar of support for me. It has wisdom packed into small lessons (I do mine a few days a week) and activities to help move through the many and difficult emotions of grieving.

For me it’s not a replacement for seeking in-person professional support, but it’s a good supplement - especially on days when I feel so weighed down by grief. Give it a go, I hope it will help you feel, cry and heal - even a little.

Not Alone

I was feeling so alone and sad before I found this app, I had lost my partner and I have no children, my friends were being supportive but of course they have their own lives. Now the first thing I do when I wake is make my cup of tea and turn on Grief Works, I find it such a comfort to listen and read, it sets me up for the day. I am beginning to understand my grief now and that helps me feel calmer and less stressed.

Developer Response ,

Highly recommend!!

This app is such a gift to the grief community. It is full of so many wonderful insights, helpful tools, prompts, and relaxing meditations.

It has given me a better understanding of my grief and its many complicated layers and emotions, in such a supportive and compassionate way.

Grief can be incredibly isolating and lonely, so I am so thankful that something like this exists, to remind us that we aren’t alone, and everything we’re experiencing is normal.
