A Creative-Arts Grief & Loss Support Group for Adults
This group is a healing space to share and process your grief. All types of loss are welcome. Drawing from the creative arts, drama therapy, ritual, and somatic practices, this group offers a unique alternative to healing that privileges authentic expression.
Often, there aren’t enough words to describe our grief. Traversing the depths of grief using creative arts can give form to our experience of loss and invite us to deeply witness and commune with our grief. In this group, you are invited to explore your unique expression of grief through various creative modalities including creative writing, role playing the parts of grief, storytelling, and art making.
Join this group to find more freedom in your expression and experience of grief!
