Grief can feel isolating, but you don’t have to face it alone. Our Grief Support Group, led by a group facilitator, is a welcoming space where individuals who have experienced loss can come together to share their feelings, find understanding, and support each other through the healing process.

In this group, you will:

• Connect with others who understand your journey
• Share your experiences in a safe, confidential space
• Find comfort and strength in knowing you are not alone
• Heal through mutual support and understanding

• Empathy: Group members are people who have gone through similar losses and can relate to your feelings
• Non-judgmental environment: Share your grief without fear of being judged or misunderstood
• Confidentiality: What is shared in the group stays in the group, ensuring a safe space for everyone
• Hope: Find inspiration and comfort in others’ stories of resilience and healing
• Reduce isolation: Peer support groups provide a sense of community and belonging that helps to remind others they are not alone
• Normalization of grief: Hearing that others feel similarly helps one to realize that their emotional responses are common and a part of the natural healing process
• Opportunities to learn coping strategies: Members can share helpful coping mechanisms that have worked for them, helping individuals to expand their toolbox for managing grief
• Prepare and deal with triggers: Peer groups can provide support in handling difficult milestones – members can learn from each other how to navigate those emotional triggers
