Resilience

Healing Through Grief and Loss

In this 8-week process group, we will explore some of the teachings of grief, share how we maintain a relational connection to our ancestors and loved ones beyond death, and support one another in coping with the strong emotions that accompany us on our healing journey.

This is for UC Berkeley students only who have experienced a loss 3 months ago or more. For more recent losses, please call and make an appointment with a counselor for individual support at (510) 642-9494.
