Patricia Speelman (424) 362-2911 Meeting Frequency: Once a Week Meeting Time: 90 mins Notes:The Didi Hirsch Suicide Prevention Center in Century City is now providing Survivors After Suicide (SAS) Support Groups for teens (ages 13-17). All groups are held virtually via Zoom due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The group is available for teens living in Los Angeles and Orange County California, ages 13 to 17, who have experienced the death of a loved one or friend by suicide and are grieving the suicide loss. There is no cost to participate at this time. Groups meet once a week or 90 minutes for 8-weeks in the evening. Groups are facilitated by two trained therapists with a specialty in bereavement after suicide. Each teen participant will interact with other teens, engage in creative coping skills, and receive emotional and therapeutic support from our therapists. Listed below are some of the themes we will work on:
- Exploring shared experiences
