When a person you love is grieving, witnessing their ongoing pain can be heartbreaking. Not knowing when the shadow of grief will lift or what event/sensory experience/person, place, or thing may cause a grief wave to knock your loved one down is confusing and can make providing meaningful support challenging. In this workshop we will explore the ebb and flow of grief recovery. We will discuss social norms and misconceptions related to grief as well as the evolution and individuality of the grief process. You will leave this presentation with tools for supporting your grieving person and the assurance that love heals and your support matters.
