Community Invited to Join Free Book Club from The Elizabeth Hospice

Grief can be difficult to express in words, but many authors have found a way to share feelings of loss through their writings.
 
The Elizabeth Hospice is offering JOURNEY THROUGH GRIEF BOOK CLUB, a support group for adults looking to connect with others who also face adversity after the death of a loved one. There is no cost to attend.
 
The book selection is Still, I Cannot Save You, A Memoir of Sisterhood, Love and Letting Go, by Kelly S. Thompson. The group will meet via Zoom every other Monday, starting July 10, from 5:30 to 6:30 pm.
 
Grief Counseling Associate Mechelle Manista and Counseling Trainee Lynne Saks with The Elizabeth Hospice will facilitate the sessions under the supervision of Kathlyne Barnum, LMFT. Author Kelly Thompson will attend the sessions, inviting questions and providing insights to deepen the participants’ experience.
 
“Our counselors will help the book club members explore their grief at various stages and teach them new coping skills for processing their grief,” said Kathlyne Barnum, Clinical Counseling Program Supervisor with The Elizabeth Hospice. “This is an opportunity to read, learn and heal with others who share similar life experiences.” 
 
Space is limited; registration is required. RSVP by July 5 to mechelle.manista@ehospice.org or lynne.saks@ehospice.org or 833-349-2054.
