Support Group Details

This six-week online group offers a safe, supportive space for individuals grieving the death of a loved one. Grief is unique to each person, and there is no right way to experience it. Through guided conversation and reflection, participants will explore emotions, memories and how grief is showing up in their lives today. Group members are invited to share, listen and connect with others navigating loss. Each session includes a weekly check-in followed by facilitator-led topics that gently guide the group’s journey together.

This group is facilitated by Taylor Zak, LCSW. Leigh Harder serves as Space Holder.

Important Details:

  • Free of charge
  • No Porter Medical Center affiliation required
  • Advanced registration and screening interview required
  • Attendance at all sessions is expected

To express interest or learn more, contact griefsupport@uvmhealth.org by April 12.
