Bereavement Group
Navigating Grief After Medical Aid in Dying
Losing someone we love is always painful: losing someone who has used Medical Aid in Dying is a different and special journey.
EOLCCA is aware of the many varied feelings that can accompany this kind of dying. We are happy to announce an online Bereavement Group for those who could benefit from this support, in partnership with Hospice of the North Coast (HNC) in Carlsbad, CA.
This private group will provide a safe, secure place to explore the very special issues that Medical Aid in Dying can bring up. We know this can be complex and challenging, and how helpful a bereavement group can be.
In coordination with EOLCCA, this group will be facilitated by Jim Reiser, LMFT, the Bereavement Coordinator of HNC. He holds a MFT from Chapman University and BA in psychology from CSUSM. He has been doing this caring work for 11 years.
Session 1: spaces filled
Four meetings will be held on Tuesdays at 6:30 pm on February 7, 14, 21 and 28.
Session 2: spaces open
Session 2 will include 4 meetings on Tuesdays at 6:30 pm on April 4, April 18, May 2 and May 16.
