Adult Grief Support Groups

After the death of someone close, your world turns upside down. Waves of emotion including sadness, loneliness, anger, yearning, and shock surge through you. Tasks that need to be accomplished feel insurmountable. You are exhausted at times and restless at others. You may experience a sense of disbelief and ask yourself "How can this be real?"

Grief is challenging and takes many forms. It can be overwhelming physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Perhaps you are sleeping more than usual or find that you are unable to fall or stay asleep. You notice changes in your appetite. Along with a rollercoaster of emotions, thoughts and memories are unexpectedly triggered. Spiritual questions may arise.

As you move along your journey towards hope and healing, being with others who are experiencing what you are provides comfort and support.

OUR HOUSE grief support groups are specific to the age of the griever and the relationship to the person who died. We have groups for:

• Adults who have experienced the death of a partner or spouse. Groups are divided into Young, Mid-Life, and Later Life Widows & Widowers.
• Parents who have experienced the death of a son or daughter
• Adults who have experienced the death of a mother or father
• Siblings who have experienced the death of a brother or sister
• General Grief - Adults who have experienced the death of a close friend or relative

Our groups consist of eight to twelve members. The intimate home-like atmosphere helps to create a sense of community and support where feelings and memories can be expressed. The groups allow for sharing, learning, and healing.
