Classes

"Grief Recovery 101"

Begins Thursday Sept 30th - Pre-registeration required

Grief Recovery 101 is a series of six classes designed to help people return to the joy of living after experiencing an important loss within the previous 12 months. Each class session will deal with particular topics about grief and will allow time for questions and discussion.

This program is not a therapy group or a support group. It is offered as a non-threatening class in which you can simply listen, learn, and ask questions about what to expect as you are working through your grief. We don’t want you to worry that you will be expected to bare your soul.Classes will be taught by Linda Gill, LPC.

Please note: This program is offered only for who are grieving a loss. It is not for appropriate for those who want to learn to help. We offer other classes for the purpose of helping.
