About this Event

This is an 8-week group beginning January 26th and meeting weekly on Mondays from 1:00–2:30 PM, with the final session taking place March 16th.

The group provides a safe, compassionate space for individuals grieving the loss of a spouse or partner. Participants can share their experiences, receive emotional support, and learn coping strategies alongside others who understand the unique challenges of this type of loss.

The group focuses on:

  • Navigating the emotional impact of losing a spouse
  • Adjusting to changes in daily life and identity
  • Building resilience and finding hope for the future
  • Creating connections with others who share similar experiences

Facilitated by trained grief professionals, the group offers both discussion and practical tools for healing.

Cost: $10 per session or $80 total. Scholarships are available when needed.


***Please note: Once you join, participation each week is expected. If you anticipate missing several sessions, we may recommend waiting for the next offering to ensure you receive the full benefit of the program.


If you are interested to attend an 8 week group, but know that the schedule of this particular group doesn't align with your availability, please reach out to us at [email protected]. We'll be happy to share additional options that might better suit your needs.
