Living Forward with Loss & Grief
For people dealing with grief, it is not the most wonderful time of the year. Instead, it can be the most dreaded time of the year. Grief during the holidays can intensify feelings of loss. Upsurges of grief are common. We are reminded of the absence of loved ones and of the feelings of loss. While loss is permanent, grief is permeable. Watch our video to see more.

From our Living Forward Speaking Platform
"I attended your workshop on and grief...I have been a social worker for over 30 years and you were able to take this huge and very important topic and break it apart for us and remind us of the importance of the interconnection between trauma and grief.

“People don’t feel like they have the right to grieve,” said Lisa S. Zoll, a licensed clinical social worker in Lemoyne, Pa., who specializes in grief counseling. “A year into this, the losses are piling up. I just had this conversation in my office when this person said, ‘I can’t complain about my grief, because people have it worse.’ But we have to correct that thinking. Your grief is your grief. You can’t compare it to other people’s.”
