You can count on us - where you need us and when you need us. ​ That is our promise. supporting you on this journey... ...grief support Grief is a normal, natural response to the loss of someone or something important. It is unique to the person experiencing it and is as individual as the relationship that brought it about. Because of this uniqueness and individuality, there is no set timetable for how a person goes through the process. Likewise, what is helpful for some people may not be helpful for others.

We support. We care... Grief comes at different points along the journey of loss, but the primary points are the period that begins at diagnosis and the period that begins at the death of a loved one. From the point of diagnosis to death, there are two types of grief: preparatory and anticipatory . Preparatory Grief is experienced by the person who is ill as they grieve the loss of their health, independence, and the shortened time they will have with others. Anticipatory Grief is experienced by family and friends as they struggle with thoughts and feelings surrounding the impending loss of their loved one. In the hospice and palliative care settings, these losses are typically processed with social workers and/or chaplains who are specifically trained to deal with these experiences. Once death has occurred, feelings, thoughts, physical reactions, and other aspects of grief can make adjustment difficult, and carrying out basic activities may seem harder. Family, friends, and other people you know and trust may have difficulty sharing in your grief or they may be struggling with the loss themselves. That’s when the grief care services of VIA Health Partners can be so important. We listen. We support. We care. It is our goal to provide grief care services that address individual needs and situations, because everyone experiences grief in their own way, and on their own timetable.

Our staff of professional counselors has a wide range of experience in grief counseling. All hold professional licenses and/or certifications and have degrees covering social work, counseling, and divinity. Counseling for adults, children and teens is available throughout our 49-county service area. Our grief counselors create a safe environment for individuals who are adjusting to a significant loss. If you have survived the loss of a loved one, we can help you discover, or rediscover, inner resources that will promote healing and help you define a meaningful future. Individual counseling. . . Talking one-on-one with a grief counselor helps to make sense of the grief process. The way in which a person grieves is unique to that person. Having a grief counselor to help you work through your emotions and thoughts about your loved one, share your memories, and discuss adjustments to life is healthy; it helps you recognize that what you are going through, though painful, is a natural life experience. We employ a beneficial perspective that is based on the following principles: Pain and loss are a natural part of life and grieving is a healthy way of taking care of ourselves. Grieving persons have the right and responsibility to grieve in their own way, to interpret their loss, to make choices that are right for them, and to determine the quality and direction for their lives. Everyone is respected and encouraged to honor their diverse values and traditions. Call us at 833.839.1113 for more information.

The support group allows group members a safe environment to experience empathetic support and a place where social isolation and feelings of loneliness are diminished. Groups specific to spousal/partner loss, adult parent loss, adult child loss, young widow/widower, mature widower loss, and child loss may also be offered. A pre-group interview with a grief counselor is required for members of structured grief groups. Please contact us for more information.
