When your partner dies, your whole world changes. You may find yourself facing questions like “What happened to the life I once knew?” From the way you meet the day to how you go to sleep at night, all the spaces your partner once filled feel empty now. You miss the many expressions of your partner—their laugh, the warmth of their touch, their comfort and reassurance. As a result of their passing, you come to experience secondary losses as you ponder such concepts as your identity without your partner, taking on responsibilities that your partner used to handle, and how to find joy and meaning in your new reality.
Spousal/partner loss is a complete reorientation to life and the process can often feel overwhelming and unbearable. This eight-week support group for adults seeks to create a sense of connection and understanding with others walking the same path.
