Bereavement support group beginning
BETHEL — Journey Through Grief is a free, eight-week bereavement support group facilitated by Katie Sloma, LCSW.
The group sessions will be held at Bethel Family Health Center, 32 Railroad St., at a time to be determined.
Every person’s loss is unique. Through a support group, one can feel the support and understanding of others who have experienced loss. While there is no single solution to dealing with loss, members of a support group can offer a range of alternatives, as well as a break from the loneliness and the boredom that often come with grief.
