Grief Journey – 7 Week Support Group
Grief can feel overwhelming, isolating, and difficult to put into words. Grief Journey is a 7-week support group designed to provide a compassionate and structured space where individuals experiencing loss can feel seen, heard, and supported. Rather than trying to “fix” grief, this group focuses on creating a safe environment where participants can explore the emotional and physical realities of loss while connecting with others who understand the experience of grieving.
Led by thanatologist Iska Hollman (MACP, CCC), the group offers gentle guidance, meaningful discussion, and practical coping strategies to help participants navigate their grief in healthy and supportive ways. Through shared reflection and guided conversation, members will have the opportunity to process their experiences, build resilience, and discover ways to move forward while honoring their loss.
The next group session begins March 17th, 2025, and will run weekly from 5:00 PM – 6:30 PM. If you are seeking a supportive community and a space to process your grief alongside others who truly understand, this group offers a compassionate place to begin that journey.
