Part III - Cumulative Grief: Learning how to honor the many losses that occur in a brief period of time

Register Here

Cumulative grief, also known as compounded grief, is grief that occurs more than once in a brief period of time. As a person with cancer, a caregiver or professional in this world, we are often met with confronting grief on a frequent basis. So often, we may be unable to process fully the loss that has occurred before we are faced with yet another loss to grieve. In addition to the emotional processing of grief, cumulative grief may come along with additional stressors related to work, legal matters, finances, or familial strain.

Join us and our guest speaker, Kristy Case. She is a licensed clinical social worker and a certified oncology social worker with more than 15 years of experience in helping people and families dealing with cancer. In this session, we will learn about cumulative grief and ways to cope with it. We will also explore methods to heal from this challenging experience.

This workshop will explore how to:

• further define cumulative grief and identify losses
• acknowledge and honor the losses of your past and present
• cultivate awareness, space, and support in your grieving process
