Seasons for Growth

Seasons for Growth: A program about the grief that can result from change and loss

Seasons for Growth is an innovative, evidence-based change, loss and grief education program that draws on the metaphor of the seasons to understand the experience of grief. It builds the knowledge and skills necessary to strengthen social and emotional wellbeing following significant loss by:
  • Exploring the impact of change and loss
  • Learning about effective ways to respond and adapt
Participants learn that they are not alone in their experience of change, loss and grief, and are able to build their communication, decision making and problem solving skills within the context of a safe and supportive peer group learning environment.

All Seasons for Growth programs are grounded in sound, person-centred educational principles.
​
As such, our programs have been shown to be a very effective education intervention. The programs do not provide counselling or psychotherapy.

The small group process, Seasons for Growth Program for Adults,  provides opportunity for people who have experienced grief to be part of a group of 4-7 people with the companion/s. This process works through the seasons of grief: autumn, winter, spring, summer.  This is a more personal situation in which one’s own grief will be touched on and it’s therefore advised that a period of about 12 months separate a significant change/loss and undertaking the process.

Novena Prayer
Mary,
you are always with the brothers and sisters of your Son.
We entrust ourselves to you
in the midst of all that is happening to us.
Help us to protect and look after each other.
Be with those who mourn and those who are sick,
those who have lost jobs and hope.
Be with us in our fear and uncertainty.
​Don't let worry and anxiety overcome us.
Be our source of hope .
Lend your strength to all those helping others and those who are caring for the sick.
Help us to end this disease.
Intercede for us with your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen
