Ohio’s Hospice Announces “Faces of Grief” Support Group for Grieving Adults
Ohio’s Hospice Invites the community to participate in the “Faces of Grief” seven-week grief support group for adults who are grieving the loss of a loved one. Faces of Grief will meet on Wednesdays from May 8 through June 26 from 5:30 to 6:45 pm.
Participants will learn about the myths of grief, common and normal grief reactions, different grieving styles, the four tasks of mourning, acknowledging the secondary losses, factors that influence the grief journey, and taking care of yourself through grief. Faces of Grief provides a safe venue for sharing experiences, discussing challenges, and learning about positive strategies for the grief journey. The sessions are designed to help adult grieves understand the many aspects of grief, process the pain, and adjust to a world without their loved one.
David Hargrave, LSW, CCTP, CGCS, bereavement counseling professional with Ohio’s Hospice, will lead the workshop. Hargrave has significant experience and expertise in assisting children, adolescents and adults with grief.
Pathways of Hope provides various services to the communities served by Ohio’s Hospice. Through generous community support, Ohio’s Hospice can offer this and other grief support programs free of charge to anyone in the community, regardless of whether they have received services.
