Victoria Hospice Bereavement Services is offering an eight-week support group for adults who are grieving following the loss of someone important in their life who has died by suicide. Facilitated by two bereavement counsellors, the group incorporates grief education, sharing and support, therapeutic activities, and mindfulness practice.
The group aims to enhance one’s sense of community and belonging, explore unique features of grief in response to suicide death, and support the healing process of grief.
Date and time:
Tuesdays from October 8 to November 26, 2024 from 4:30 to 6:30 pm
Where:
At the group room space in the Community Support Centre at 102-4450 Chatterton Way
Who:
A limited number of pre-registered participants to enhance comfort. A commitment to attend all sessions enhances the value of the group experience.
How:
A pre-group interview with a counsellor is required to discuss your needs, answer any questions you may have, and determine whether the group is a good fit for you at this time. We have a variety of grief support options and want to ensure we are best meeting you needs at this time.
Fee:
There is no cost to participate in this group.
Registration:
To register or for further questions, please call Bereavement Services at 250-519-3040 or email Hospice.Bereavement@islandhealth.ca
