This has been another tough year for many individuals as we continue to endure through the pandemic and search for a return to some level of pre-pandemic normalcy in our lives. In this session, we will discuss the sense of loss that is facing many of us during this holiday season. The loss can be the result of death, physical distance or social distance.
Mercedes Bern-Klug will facilitate a discussion about how to recognize the sense of loss in ourselves and in others, and consider ways to respond to the loss during the holiday season.
