Suicide Survivor Grief: Life After Loss
Join Guest Speaker Jill McMahon, LPC and Board Member at EricsHouse, and Loss Survivor Marianne Gouveia (Eric’s Mom) for a candid discussion of suicide loss and what the healing journey looks likes from the perspective of a counselor who is an expert in suicide loss and trauma, and from a mother who lost a son to suicide after a long struggle with addiction. You will learn how surviving a suicide loss is possible, how healthy approaches to stigma and be use, and ways to help yourself with healing along the way.
There is no charge for this event.
