HopeHealth Offers Free Grief and Stress Seminars

/in , , /by

HopeHealth’s behavioral health department is offering free seminars on grief and stress, providing outlets for participant support and discussion. The courses function in an educational style, rather than as a support group; participants are not required to share personal feelings.

Both classes are led by Georgann O’Quinn, LPC, NCC, BCC. Pre-registration is required, with seating limited to 20 attendees. COVID-19 precautions continue, with masks required and social distancing observed.

The Good Grief seminar is a 3-hour educational course for anyone dealing with the transition of death, chronic illness, terminal illness, trauma, divorce, job loss, career change, retirement, and/or relocation. The seminar may prove helpful for individuals dealing with grief directly, as well as for those supporting others through the grief process. Good Grief features an informal classroom-style lecture setup, with handouts provided and time allotted for questions and answers.

The next Good Grief seminars will be held at the HopeHealth Medical Plaza (360 N. Irby Street) in Florence on Wednesday, September 14 from 2-5 pm, as well as Monday, September 19 from 9am-12pm, and Saturday, October 1 from 2-5 pm.  The seminar will also be held at the HopeHealth on Pine Needles Road location (3380 Pine Needles Rd.) in Florence on Friday, October 7 from 1-4pm.

To register, or to receive additional course dates, call (843) 413-3245 and ask for Hannah McCutcheon.
