Announcing: Miscarriage Support Group for women and men on Mondays at 11:45 to 1:15. The group will be at my office on Lytton St. in Palo Alto. I ask that you commit to 8 weeks of group, and then you may choose whether to continue for another 8 weeks. Start date will commence when we have six participants.
Miscarriage is the hidden grief, not often talked about, yet many women and couples experience one or more miscarriages. Women and men may also view miscarriage differently, and have differing support needs.
In this group, we’ll have a safe and confidential space to discuss our thoughts, feelings, concerns, pains, hopes, and dreams.
