Upcoming Workshop

Grief Spiritual Support Group

Weekly, starting in the Spring

Online (video), two-hour sessions, dates and times TBD

Fee: $250 for the eight-week series

If someone close to you has died, you are likely feeling the effects in many ways. For instance, you may be facing pain or numbness, new challenges, new questions, or a sense of being alone in some ways as the months wear on. A support group brings together people in grief who have the desire for healing, a willingness to explore resources, and the interest and patience to “be there” with one another in the discomfort of mourning. You might think of this as a weekly online sanctuary for honoring your loss and seeking growth, in the company of a small group of understanding fellow travelers.

This support group is interactive and presumes participants have the ability to engage on camera for two hours each week for the duration. If you have questions about access or any other aspect of the group, feel free to include them in the form below.
