When we love and lose someone, we are overwhelmed by pain and sorrow. For lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people, mourning the loss of a partner can encompass an additional burden if there is little or no family, or support from the community.
Perhaps you felt that some didn’t approve of your relationship. Maybe you even kept it a secret. For these reasons, it may be difficult for you to trust traditional sources of support, and could benefit from being with others who had a common experience in life.
Spectrum’s Grief Group is for older adults 60 years of age and older who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, and who are grieving the loss of a significant other. The loss may be recent, or it may have been long ago.
The group will run for eight weeks beginning January 14th. Participants will be asked to commit to attending all eight sessions.
We hope you'll join us for this confidential group. If you have questions, call Erin Grey, MFTI at
