Free Grief Support Group: Finding Solace in Community
Losing a loved one can be an overwhelming experience, but you don't have to navigate the journey of grief alone. UCSF Spiritual Care Services offers a supportive space for persons who have experienced the death of an adult loved one through our free Grief Support Groups which are open to the public, whether or not you are affiliated with UCSF.
Our Grief Support Groups provide a safe and nurturing environment where participants can share their experiences, emotions, and memories. Facilitated by compassionate professionals, group meetings focus on:
- Personal Sharing: Express your thoughts and feelings in a supportive community.
- Active Listening: Receive understanding and empathy from others who are also grieving.
- Discussion and Reflection: Explore themes of loss, coping, and healing through guided conversations.
- Journaling: Use writing as a tool for processing emotions and documenting your grief journey.
- Mindfulness Meditation: Cultivate inner peace and resilience through mindfulness practices.
- Artwork: Engage in creative expression as a means of honoring your loved one.
