Grief has a way of reshaping our world. The fall season, with its celebrations, family gatherings, and symbols of change, can bring those emotions even closer to the surface. This group offers a space to pause and tend to what your heart carries — the ache of missing, the love that remains, and the search for meaning in a changed life.

Guided by Boaz Johnson, a therapist known for his calm and compassionate presence, participants will be invited to explore their grief through storytelling, reflection, and gentle meaning-making. Boaz draws from narrative and existential approaches to help people uncover hope and purpose, even in the midst of deep sorrow. His background in theology and meaning-centered therapy shapes a group experience that honors both the emotional and spiritual dimensions of loss.

Over five weeks, the group will journey together through guided exercises and conversation, exploring the stories of their losses, honoring the people they have loved, and discovering how grief, when shared and witnessed, can open new pathways toward healing.

Through the process, participants will:

• Give voice to their stories of loss and how those experiences have shaped them.

• Reflect on the enduring bonds of love and memory.

• Challenge unspoken expectations that grief should look or feel a certain way.

• Create new rituals and practices that carry love and connection forward.

• Re-author their story to integrate both loss and renewed meaning.

Whether your loss is recent or long ago, this is a place where your story will be heard, your experience honored, and your heart met with care.
