Survivors of Suicide Support Groups
Have you lost a loved one to suicide?
If so, you are a survivor of suicide. A survivor may be a spouse or partner, child, close family member, co-worker or anyone who is impacted by loss to suicide.
When a person dies because they have taken their own life, the effect on survivors can be devastating. Grief can be intensified because the death was a suicide. Common feelings include shock, anger, guilt, depression, confusion and shame.
This six-week bereavement group is designed for those who are at least six months beyond the suicide, and who desire more support in a closed group setting.
Losing a loved one to suicide involves a unique and complicated grief. The Survivors of Suicide Bereavement Support Group provides a safe environment where others engaged in the same experience can speak freely. To assist in the healing process, this six week closed group provides a structured, supportive journey through complicated grief.
