FREE Anticipatory Grief Drop-In Support Groups
1st and 3rd Wednesdays
If someone we love is seriously ill, or if we're concerned about upcoming hardships of any kind, we naturally begin to grieve right now. The process
Anticipatory Grief is normal, but can also be confusing and painful.
You're invited to attend one of our Anticipatory Grief Drop-In Support
Groups, where your grief will be witnessed without judgment! Where
you can befriend your grief, learn how to understand, as well
as find ways to express it as you live your daily life.
Peer Support
Donation Based Private One-on-One Support
Sometimes, a little extra support is just what you need when preparing your end-of-life documents or after a loss when navigating your way through the wilderness of grief.
Whether you’re looking for a one-time check-in or ongoing support, call or text 512-787-3402 to schedule a conversation.
Your first conversation is FREE! If you'd like to move forward with peer-to-peer support, each call is offered on a donation basis. You pay what you can; you decide what amount to donate after each conversation.
