​Reviews
​“Whatever your professional background, this is a must if you work with people who are experiencing this form of loss.” ~ Alex Fisher
​
​“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. I would encourage anyone who works to help people within any capacity to participate in this training.” ~ Sarah Lincoln 

"As an initial introduction this was great and very thought provoking. It is a huge subject and we scratched the surface, however I will be researching this based on the helpful learning resources provided.” ~ Mark Reynolds
 
"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
