Circle of Care is hosting free support groups for clients on the following topics:

(1) Virtual Stress Management Support Group starting at the end of August for clients and families. Topics include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), relaxation/breathing techniques and conflict resolution.

(2) Early Days Grief Group starting in September. Participants will have the opportunity to acknowledge the death, normalize the common characteristics of grief, and support their early adjustment to the challenging road ahead within a compassionate, judgement–free environment.

If you feel that a client of yours would benefit from this group, we invite you to share the link/information with them.

If you are looking for additional mental health supports, we recommend you check out Wellness Together Canada, a free and accessible support for all Canadians. To access resources and support, create an account and take an initial assessment; you will then be provided with tailored mental health support and resources.
