Claire Schwartz returns to our podcast with a groundbreaking framework for understanding grief recovery - the TAPER technique. For many grieving people, the question "How do I know if I'm getting better?" becomes a haunting refrain as days blur together in what feels like endless pain.
Drawing from her 18 years of grief counseling experience, Claire unpacks each element of her systematic approach. What makes this conversation particularly powerful is how Claire addresses the misconception that grief healing follows a predictable timeline. She compassionately explains that while grief never completely disappears, its intensity does gradually taper - hence the technique's name.
The TAPER framework applies beyond death-related grief to any significant loss - divorce, job changes, empty nest transitions, or natural disasters - making this episode relevant for anyone navigating major life changes. Whether you're in the raw early stages of grief or years into your journey but feeling stuck, this episode offers both validation and practical guidance.
