Support Groups

• I offer 4 different kinds of support groups. These groups meet weekly or biweekly for 90 minutes each. They are drop-in groups.

• They are made up of anywhere from 4 to 12 participants.

1. Support group for anyone grieving the loss of a spouse: whether married, unmarried, same-sex, different-sex, or beyond labels. This group is for those who have lost their “person” and are seeking connection and support.

2. Support group for grieving teenagers ages 16-18: whether grieving the death of a parent, sibling, or best friend, this support group is for those grieving the loss of someone they are strongly bonded to.

3. Support group for grieving young adults ages 19-25: whether grieving the death of a parent, sibling, or best friend, this support group is for those grieving the loss of someone they are strongly bonded to.

4. Support group for primary caregivers.
