Anticipatory Grief Group
This is an ongoing group for adults who have a loved one who has received a terminal diagnosis. The group is primarily focused on processing the grief around the upcoming death, and is not geared towards people who are primarily looking for emotional support around the significant challenges of caregiving.
We have found that the people who seem to get the most out of group are those whose loved one is expected to die sometime in the next 9 months, but are always happy to connect you to the facilitator to reflect on your particular situation.
