REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS
"Chloe delivered an insightful and thorough explanation of Ambiguous Loss. This is an area which directly affects our service users and our team, as we seek to locate absent family members. The bespoke learning will enable us to further support our service users, and to better understand ourselves. I’m very happy to highly recommend Chloe since she presents this difficult topic in an easy-to-digest but thought-provoking way, with very good visuals and a helpful handout. Thank you Chloe!" ~ Karen Wallace, Team Leader of The Family Tracing Service of The Salvation Army United Kingdom and Ireland.
"I have had the privilege of attending two of Chloe's training events, which helped me put into context my own experiences of living with the shadow of ambiguous loss. Chloe brings a huge amount of passion and clarity to the subject, as well as a depth of experience via her work as a specialist therapist working in this area. Ambiguous loss is still a relatively unknown phenomenon in society, however, Chloe is doing important work to raise awareness. You may be experiencing the impact of ambiguous loss in your personal life, or are working with clients who are left with unanswered questions around issues of adoption, missing persons, divorce or a partner/spouse who has Alzheimer's disease or locked-in syndrome etc, if so, then Chloe's therapy or training may be a great help to you. Chloe is a vastly experienced, knowledgeable and heart-centred guide who can ably assist you on your journey to finding answers to the haunting questions that linger with experiences of ambiguous loss." ~ Dr Mick Collins
“The training raised my awareness on how my own ambiguous loss has impacted on me personally and has encouraged me to reflect more on this. Indeed, I have decided to bring aspects of Chloe’s model into my thinking on my own recent loss and it has shed some light on certain situations that I believe, moving forward, will enable me to have a better understanding.” ~ Anonymous participant
“Chloe led us gently and confidently through a sensitive topic of ambiguous loss, clarifying the complexities of this type of loss that seems to be underexplored in our culture. It was a safe and absorbing exploration.” ~ Sebastiana Black
“Chloe’s teaching on Ambiguous Loss holds potent relevancy to our current climate both universally and on individualistic levels. I experienced many light bulb moments during her training motivating more profound thought that led me to question the types of ambiguous losses people may not typically consider and the ripple effect throughout a lifetime if left unresolved. The delivery of such training was excellent and included practical anecdotes which promoted understanding and compassion.” ~ Sarah Lincoln
