Grief Support

Grief Support

Working with the entire community, we know that our neighbors in grief still need support whether they are comfortable with indoor gatherings or not. For this reason, Morris-Baker teamed with Dr. Jason Troyer and other grief professionals to offer a combination of resources: some are in-person, and others you can access anywhere you are.

 

 

 

Healing Hearts Luncheons

Healing Hearts gatherings happen on the 2nd Tuesday of each month and are an opportunity for members of our community to find strength in each other and support others who have lost a spouse. 

 

Call Brenda Pelham at (423) 262-5241 to find out the location of our next luncheon. 

 

 

Grief Support Group

Our grief support group is free, open to the public, and led by Chelsa Ervin, LCSW.

 

The group meets on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 5:00 p.m. at Everlan of Johnson City, 2623 Peoples St, Johnson City, TN 37604. 

 

 

GriefPlan

GriefPlan is an online, self-paced grief support program. The program was developed by Dr. Jason Troyer — a grief expert, author, former therapist and college professor. The GriefPlan program includes:

  • Sections on how to heal your pain, remember your loved one, and rebuild your life
  • over 60 short videos on specific grief challenges and topics
  • over 50 "activity sheets" that will help with journaling and taking action on your personal grief journey


The GriefPlan program is normally $79 per person. However, Morris-Baker is sponsoring the program for the entire community and making it available for free.
