BEREAVEMENT COUNSELING

Grief is a normal process of reacting to significant changes in one’s life. Bereavement involves learning how to live with the change caused by the loss of a loved one. Grief is a unique and individual experience and may cause changes to one’s physical, emotional, behavioral, and spiritual well-being, all of which are normal reactions to loss. “The grief process takes time and support.” St. Marie’s Hospice is pleased to offer a variety of support programs designed to promote positive ways of healing. Bereavement support is provided to patients’ families for up to 13 months after the death of a loved one
