Griefshare - Surviving the Holidays (In person)
Help and hope as you navigate the holiday season.
Bittersweet memories. Loss of traditions. An empty seat at the table. The holiday season can trigger sadness and despair for people grieving a loss.
Have you lost a loved one and are wondering how you will survive the time off at the end of the year? Are you dreading these holidays, knowing that everything has changed and that happy memories from past years can’t be recreated?
When you are grieving a loved one’s death, the holiday season can be especially painful.
