You don’t have to go through this alone.
We offer a number of groups at Gig Harbor focused on specific topics. View our current offerings below.
Caregiver Support
Ongoing | online
Taking on the role of caregiver for a loved one or a friend is a huge responsibility. While the rewards can be extraordinary, without proper support, it can feel lonely and isolating and result in caregiver burnout.
This therapist-led support group will provide emotional support, guidance, information & resources and support & compassion as you spend time with group members who are also providing care for a loved one or friend.
Come talk, laugh, cry, and receive encouragement and support as you navigate the challenges of caregiving while also finding ways to take care of yourself. Emotional support and practical information, guidance and resources will be provided. You don’t have to do this alone.
