Grief support.
Grief is a path, not an appointment. This guide offers pointers on where to find support after the funeral — pastoral, therapeutic or through exchange with others.

Grief takes time
Grief is individual. Phases of denial, surging emotions, searching and a new everyday alternate.
Pastoral care
Pastors, deacons or hospital chaplains are available for conversations — denominational and non-denominational.
Grief groups and cafés
Many parishes and hospice associations offer grief cafés and self-help groups. We are happy to point to local offerings.
When is professional help useful?
When grief remains very burdensome over months, therapeutic support can help. GPs or counselling centres can suggest contacts.
Grieving children
Children grieve differently. Open, age-appropriate conversations and rituals help. Specialised offerings exist in many regions.
