“Grief never ends. But it changes. It is a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of faith. It's the price of love.”
Grief is an emotionally painful response to loss. The more significant the loss, the more intensely grief is experienced. Losses that result in grief include death, divorce, diminishing health, job layoff, relocations, and dissolved relationships, among others. Grief is a process that is different for everyone. Your grief reactions are unique to you, and so is the timeframe within which you experience grief. Understanding grief can be the first step to working through it.
This workshop will be a step towards understanding grief, provide insight about your own grief, how to help others who are grieving, offer a supportive environment to connect with others who are experiencing grief and provide tools to help move through the grief process.
Jill Washington and William Pelech are professional social workers who have extensive experience in providing counselling and support for those experiencing grief.
