adult children going no contact: after the storm

Mon, Sep 14 | 10:00AM - 11:00AM UTC

This group is intended for adult children who initiated no contact with their parent/parents or family members. It can feel like a lonely and heavy weight to carry alone. In here, we carry that same weight and learn how to navigate all the feelings arising once going no contact. Most importantly, we go through this together. This group will cover topics of guilt, disenfranchised grief, shame and all the other friends we're meeting after making a choice necessary for our well being.

Topic context

Understanding bereavement

Grief isn’t linear, and it doesn’t follow a set timeline. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, a relationship, or a way of life, the emotional weight can feel isolating and hard to explain to others. Peer support offers comfort in shared mourning. It’s a space where you don’t have to be okay — where your feelings are welcomed and validated. Together, you honor loss, share coping strategies, and find moments of hope in the presence of others who truly understand.

Why it helps

How peer support helps with bereavement

Peer support helps with bereavement because the people around you often expect you to move through grief faster than is real. A group of peers who have also lost someone can offer recognition, company, and the relief of not having to perform recovery for the room.

Frequently asked questions

What is bereavement?

Bereavement is the period of grief and mourning following the death of someone close to you. It includes a range of emotional, physical, and social responses to loss, and it looks different for every person and every relationship.

How long does bereavement last?

There is no fixed timeline. Bereavement can last months, years, or a lifetime, and it rarely moves in a straight line. Many people find that grief resurfaces around anniversaries, milestones, or unexpected moments. A support group can hold those waves without pressure to be done.

Is a bereavement support group different from grief counseling?

Grief counseling involves a trained professional guiding your work through loss. A bereavement support group connects you with other people who are grieving. Both can be valuable, and many people use them together at different points in the process.
