Embracing Grief With Hope Conference

During this evening’s session, we will be helped in understanding how loss influences our lives. We will be encouraged to embrace the uniqueness of our grief, quietly reflect on our feelings of loss, learn about the six essential needs we all have when someone dies. We shall learn to understand the difference between “reconciling” your grief and “resolving” our grief. Everyone is invited to attend. Special attention is given to those who are presently experiencing grief in their lives. If you know anyone who may benefit from this opportunity, please let them know.

After a significant loss, grief is normal and necessary. But sometimes as mourners, grief becomes stuck, or made more complex by especially difficult circumstances surrounding the death or complications surrounding the nature of the relationship. The seminar content will include exploring the origins of complicated grief, risk factors, common symptoms and provide specific guidance on caring for complicated grievers. Come join us and learn about the important body of knowledge from one of North America’s leading clinical thanatologists.
