Center for Hope Offers Bereavement Group for Grieving Parents

Darien, Conn. (September 10, 2010) – Losing a child is one of the most painful situations a parent can experience. To help parents cope with their grief, the Center for HOPE has started a new support group.

Led by Center for HOPE clinician Carole Greenberg, RN, MS, LMFT, the group

helps parents overcome feelings of isolation and provides a safe and supportive environment. It also allows parents to talk abut the things that they cannot discuss with others – from their anger, sadness and guilt to how to handle special occasions.

The group will meet every Monday at 5:45p.m. for ten weeks, beginning September 20th. Sessions will be held at the Center for Hope located at 590 Post Road in Darien and is a program of Family Centers. An initial consultation is required before joining the group.
