Since 1985, St Mary's Grief Support Services has provided a safe place for grieving youth and adults of all ages to heal. Because each individual's response to loss is unique, we offer an umbrella of resources to choose from. Seeking support can make the difference between grieving in isolation and thriving. Our mission is to facilitate healthy grieving and offer specialized therapy and support for those impacted by serious illness, caregiving, or the death of a family member, friend, or pet. Free grief literature is also available on our website.
Gina Dixon, Licensed Psychologist, Program Manager, has more than 25 years of experience providing Grief and Trauma Therapy to individuals, families and groups. As a family survivor of suicide, homicide, and dementia caregiving, she has a deep respect for the resilience and courage of those seeking support in the midst of grief.
Please visit our website or call to learn more about our grief therapy team including Kristine Fitch LICSW, Anne Gettle LICSW, and Pete Butz LGSW. We provide free virtual grief support groups for adults, teens, and children. Additional services include education, and community outreach. Fees for therapy services are covered by most health insurances.
