Event Description:
At Hospice of Northwest Michigan we realize that the weeks and months following the death of a loved one are very difficult. We understand that many find comfort in being with others who have had similar experiences in an environment that is confidential, safe and supportive as we learn together how to cope with the pain and emotions of loss.
Hospice of Northwest Michigan's grief support program provides support and education to people who are grieving the loss of a loved one - a spouse, parent, child, sibling, relative, friend or companion. Meetings are led by David Behling an experienced grief counselor and support group facilitator; this support program includes discussions of specific topics, and provides optional personal sharing opportunities in a safe and accepted atmosphere.
It is the goal of Hospice of Northwest Michigan's grief support groups to walk with individuals and families as they Journey through the pain of loss, providing emotional and personal support through the many emotions and pain they experience. Topics of our five week sessions include:
“Acknowledging the reality of the death.
Embracing the pain of the loss.
Remembering the person who died.
Developing a new self-identity.
Searching for meaning.
Receiving ongoing support from others.”
All sessions are free and you are invited to come the evening of the group although we encourage advanced registration. For more information or to register for the group please call 231-547-7659.
