Grief Support Groups
The pain of losing a spouse, a parent, a child or other family member or friend can be profound. It can help to talk or share emotions in a warm, supportive and confidential environment with others who have experienced losses. Our groups are open to all individuals 18 and over.
• Healing Hearts is a structured support group, that is led by a trained therapist. In our group, we hope to learn to understand the grieving process and explore experiences through writing and discussion. Registration is required for these ongoing groups and prompt arrival is appreciated.
•Compassionate Hearts: is a support group for healthcare workers who care for the ill or dying patient. This is a group where we will focus on the healthcare worker who gives to support people in their time of transition. We will focus on self-care, making connection, and collective sharing.
In case of inclement weather, please check our calendar and the listing for a particular event for announcements of cancellations. We will also post cancellations on our Facebook page and Twitter feed.
Grief and Bereavement groups are led by Gwendolyn E. McQueeney, LMSW.
Why join a group?
Healing. Research shows that talking to others about a loss or trauma – rather than staying silent – is associated with better health, including a stronger immune system.
