Today we honor Children’s Grief Awareness Day and stand with kids who are navigating loss. Professional support can help a child handle grief soon after a loss happens and ongoing. Counselors can educate children on grief, normalize how they are feeling, and teach them strategies to deal with tough feelings.

If a child in your life could use support, our skilled pediatric counselors are trained in helping children navigate grief and trauma. Reach out to us to learn more: https://bit.ly/4o85sPk
