Coastal Hospice grief support groups are increasingly being recognized as an effective way to promote healing through education and support after the loss of a loved one or close friend. Our support group members report a strong positive impact based on both the psycho-educational aspects of groups and the “haven” setting we provide for emotional expression and release of feelings. Doing grief work can lead to self-discovery, self-reflection, introspection, transformation, and healing. There is growth through grief.
Support is offered at no cost and open to all adults who have experienced the death of a loved one—whether or not Coastal Hospice was part of your journey.
To register, please contact Rachel Gulley, Bereavement Counselor at Coastal Hospice | 443-359-4768 rgulley@coastalhospice.org OR Latonya Davis, Mortician & Bereavement Counselor at Bennie Smith Funeral Home | 302-922-0285 ldavis.bsfh@outlook.com
