Support Group Meeting: Topic for Discussion- Worden’s 4 Tasks of Grieving

Join us for an evening of support tailored for women aged 45+ who are in the midst of a major life transition.

In this session, we will explore what grief looks like, what to expect when we’re in transition and grieving what once was, and how to move forward with our lives.

Psychologist J. William Worden provides a framework of four tasks that help us understand how people journey through grief. Healing happens gradually as grievers address these tasks, in no specific order, going back and forth from one to another over time.

Grief has many faces. It’s loss. The loss of a loved one, a dream, a phase of life, a relationship, our health, our children leaving home, a way of life, and so on. We can move through our transition, our grief, in a way that is adaptive and restorative or maladaptive and potentially self-destructive. 

Join us for our first support group as we explore this topic together, sharing life wisdom, and experiences to support and encourage each other.

Our experienced facilitator, Darlene Morris, is a practicing psychotherapist in Encinitas, California. Darlene specializes in grief and loss, trauma and stress and anxiety. While working as a grief and loss therapist at a local hospice Darlene facilatated multiple support groups tailored at supporting individuals as they move through grief. This support group, however, is not being facilitated in a professional capacity, but more in an AA type style. One woman in transition joining and coming alongside another for social support.

Boost your overall well-being. Connect with women in a supportive and nurturing environment as we prioritize our mental and physical health together.
