THE CENTER FOR LOSS AND BEREAVEMENT

Specialized Groups

At different times throughout the year, we hold specialized support groups for grieving individuals in the community. These groups are designed to address particular types of death (i.e. support for suicide loss) or loss of a particular relationships (i.e. death of a spouse or partner).

Our groups are organized to provide a supportive environment where one can gain a sense of connection and support from other group members. There is a screening process before entering a group to help us identify a group members needs and and to help determine how a support group might benefit you at this time.

Our groups are lead by facilitators trained in the field of bereavement. Each facilitator has a Master's Degree and receives ongoing education .

If you are interested in attending one of them, please call (610) 222 - 4115 to ask for more information or to receive a registration form.

Groups are offered as interest is shown and are not limited to the topics listed below.
