When someone you love dies, often a huge gap appears. This gap is called “grief.” We are here to help be your bridge, gently leading you across that gap in your time of need, at your own pace. Everyone grieves differently in their own unique way. Helios Grief Support offers professional guidance for individuals as well as groups coping with similar types of losses – so you can choose the type of support that’s right for you.

“We still have grief, but it is no longer as raw and hurting as it once was. We encourage anyone having to deal with the loss of a loved one to seek out grief support.”
