Grief Support

December 2019

Grief counseling is available to the community at large from Hospice of the Northwest.

Any member of our community can use Hospice of the Northwest for grief support. We offer both individual and group counseling.  Support is available regardless of how long ago a death occurred or whether the person was receiving hospice care at the time.

The holiday season may increase feelings of loss.  Let us know if we can help.  You can call our main number, 360-814-5550, or click the link below for more information.

For more information contact Dr. Leslie Estep or Dr. Anita Meyer at Hospice of the Northwest,
360-814-5550, or [email protected]  or  [email protected]
