Details
What is a grief support group? What can I expect from this group?
A grief support group offers a different quality of support and connection that comes from being with people who have also experienced a significant loss. Grief support groups provide emotional support, validation, and education about grief. This group will be open to new and returning participants each week, with a maximum of 12 people at each session, so be sure to reserve your space on Embark now! The group will be facilitated and supported by an experienced licensed counselor, and will meet each Tuesday evening from 6-7 pm. This week we will be in Blanchard 318.
What is the goal of a grief group?
In a grief support group, each individual is able to talk about their feelings and receive emotional support and validation from others who are experiencing similar feelings.
By participating in a grief support group, you're not only helping yourself but you're also helping other members find hope. That uplifting feeling of support helps you gain compassion and understanding of each other's unique grief.
What can you expect from a grief support group?
A safe, understanding, non-judgmental, and supportive environment where one can tell their story and express feelings freely.
A place for learning new coping skills, relaxation techniques, and stress management skills.
A place for establishing a connection with others to decrease the isolation that grief brings.
Confidentiality around your stories and experiences. No one will share what is said in this space -- the lessons may leave but the stories always stay.
