Support when you need it most

Everyone grieves differently; for some it is a very private process, others have networks of friends and family that meet their needs. Some people benefit from participating in Individual support, or in a Group with others who are grieving.  Attending Memorial Services and Workshops can also be a way to honor your loved one as you begin your healing journey.

Pathways has an array of bereavement services to help people as they navigate this new territory without their loved one.

 

What type of support are you interested in?

Grief counseling begins for many people with a call to Pathways for bereavement support after the death of someone. Many who call have never used counseling. Counseling need not be complicated. Our bereavement therapists have had extensive training and experience. They have the passion to help those in grief.

When you call, we will want to know about you, how you have been since the death and about the person who passed. If the loss is recent, we will recommend meeting individually with one our therapists. These first sessions are offered on Zoom or face to face in one of our three offices. Availability depends on the assigned therapist’s schedule and yours. Meeting in-person in the office will be based on our therapists’ availability.

If you or someone you know needs grief support, Pathways Home Health & Hospice offers individual counseling and group support. Grief support groups are held throughout the year with many groups beginning the second week of September through early June and some through the summer. Groups are for six weeks, then take a break, and then resume with new and continuing participants for six weeks.

Celebration of Light Memorial Service

Each December, this memorial service brings light and warmth to the winter season. During this time of gathering we remember our loved ones with music, readings, reflections and a candle-lighting ritual that highlights the importance of light in six major faith traditions.  We also provide the opportunity for you light a candle for your loved one as we collectively honor their life.

Afternoon of Rememberance Memorial Service

In May, with the ushering in of Memorial Day, graduations, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day we are often reminded of the absence of our loved one.  As a way to honor those special people whose absence we miss dearly, Pathways offers a time to come together to foster renewal and growth through music, readings, reflections and collectively creating a large flower bouquet.

Pathways Through the Holidays

Preparing for the Holidays, we will be making many decisions about how to move forward. We encourage you to take care of yourself during one of the most difficult times of the year for someone who is grieving. Please let us support you by following the link to our multi page handout Pathways Through the Holidays.
