Grief Coach Training for Professionals: Support Without Needing a Counselling Degree
Grief doesn’t follow a script. It doesn’t care about calendars or clean endings.
And yet, many professionals are left unsure how to respond when someone’s grief shows up loudly—or silently—in front of them.
That’s why we created the STILL Method Grief Coach Training: a fully accredited, structured grief support training course for professionals who want to make a difference.
What Is Grief Coach Training?
Grief coach training is a non-clinical, practical way to help people navigate loss—whether they’re reeling from sudden bereavement, processing complicated grief, or simply trying to make sense of life after change.
This course equips you to support grief in teens and adults using a trauma-informed, evidence-based framework. It is especially suitable for those looking to become a grief coach without a formal counselling qualification.
Who Is This Training For?
This isn’t just for counsellors or therapists. This is grief training for professionals in schools, care settings, coaching roles, or anyone who supports others emotionally.
If you’ve ever felt:
Helpless in the face of someone’s grief
Worried about saying the wrong thing
Underequipped to deal with intense emotion
Called to help others, but unsure how
…then this grief support training course is for you.
What Will You Learn?
This six-week grief coaching programme gives you the structure and tools to offer real support—not just comfort platitudes.
You’ll learn to:
Understand the psychological and physical impact of grief
Work with different types of grief, including traumatic and disenfranchised loss
Adapt your approach for grief in teens vs adults
Deliver grief sessions in 1:1 or group formats
