That’s because the experience of losing someone we love is never simple. It often provokes us to have thoughts and emotions that are confusing\, painful\, or hard to talk about with others. But it is in support of others that we learn the importance of this chapter we are in and the transformative healing it can bring. \nTOPICS WE DISCUSS: \n\nOpening up to the reality of our grief and loss. \nDismantling the myths of grief and how one thinks they are “supposed to feel.” \nHow we understand and honor the uniqueness of our grieving process\, including where we are today.\nRecognizing and learning our needs in mourning.\nNurturing a transformation that allows you to value the journey you are on in grief.\n\nThis group supports individuals (ages 18+) who have experienced grief & loss\, whether through death\, job loss\, pet loss\, or other major life transitions\, that may be feeling alone through their grieving process. We understand the loneliness one often experiences in the grieving process\, and we invite anyone looking for a sense of community at this time to reach out to us.  \nOur Grief & Loss support group offers individuals like you who are processing how to cope and heal through their grief. Let’s gather in our grief so together; we may heal without the shame or blame of learning to let go and become whole again. \n *All of our group facilitators have lived with the experience that their group supports. \nThis group is ongoing throughout 2024 and offered as an open format for individuals to come as often or as little as possible. We meet in person at Your Story Counseling every Thursday from 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. \nTime | 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. \nPrice | Individual price is $10/ per session. \nFor more information or to reserve your spot at our next group\, contact our Intake Team by:\n\nPhone | 630.442.1895\nEmail | info@yourstoryinc.com\nFill out the inquiry form below.\nYou can also reach out to our group facilitator directly here. Spencer Schroeder MS\, LPC\n\n\n Notice: JavaScript is required for this content.
