Exploring life's Losses and the Road to Recovery.

Loss in our lives can also be an invitation to wholeness. A workshop on this topic is taking place in the Family Centre, Chapel St., Castlebar on Saturday October 24th between 10.30 am and 4 pm. The facilitator, Fr. Jim Cogley, is an artist of wood and a Psychotherapist. He uses the wood symbols he has designed as an aid to help people get in touch with “age old truths” that speak to the soul.

Suicide Bereavement Support

So many families and friends are deeply affected by the death, through suicide, of somebody whom they loved or cared for. While many people try to provide support as best they can those bereaved by suicide often find meeting other people who have had a similar experience to be a great help. The Family Centre at Chapel St., Castlebar hold a very confidential Suicide Bereavement Support group each year where they invite people who have been affected by suicide to meet together to work towards healing. The group is facilitated by two accredited counsellors attached to the Family Centre. The next group is starting on Thursday 29th October 2009, at 8 pm. The support group meets once a week for five weeks. Anybody interested in joining this group should contact Máire Ní Dhomhnaill, Counsellor at the Family Centre at 094 90 25900.
