Grief workshops
Shirley conducts one-day workshops for children, weekend retreats and workshops for teens and adults, and does one-on-one coaching, too.
Through the use of tools and exercises in a safe environment, participants are able to open up about their feelings, share stories, and learn skills designed to help them move forward and begin their healing process.

“Living with a Dying Child”, “Life Goes on Even in Hard Times”, “It Isn’t Always Easy” are some of the topics Shirley addresses. She can also customize talks for your group.
