Mary Washington Healthcare Grief Support Programs

Grief is a healthy response to death. Our grief counselors at Mary Washington Hospice are specially trained to listen empathetically to your concerns, answer your questions, offer encouragement, and provide caring support. Our experiences are never the same as those of another. Just as our lives differ, the journey through grief is unique to each person. If you need help coping with grief, we are open to all community members, regardless of whether your loved one was a patient with us. Call 540.741.3580 for more information. To attend a grief support group contact Ann Bernardi at 540.741.1874 or [email protected]. Our mission is to nurture individuals and families along their grief journey as they cope with the death of a loved one. All programs are provided at no cost to the participant. We are for the community and funded by the community through private donations, fundraising events and grants.
