Introducing: Caregiver Support Group

We’re excited to announce that we’re offering a Caregiver Support Group in early 2026!

To say that being a caregiver is difficult is an understatement: there are so many challenges and changes to cope with, often causing burnout. It is even more exhausting to be a caregiver when you aren’t receiving the support you need – as the saying goes: “You can’t pour from an empty cup”

Lisa Sutherland, a registered Social Worker who provides counselling at our clinic, is starting a Caregiver Support Group specifically to help with this. The support group will be tailored for Caregivers to share their experiences and support each other. Participants will have the opportunity to talk to other Caregivers and receive support while learning new strategies. Topics may include, but are not limited to: Burnout, Grief, Self-Care, and Life after Caregiving. 

Exact dates are still being determined, but sessions are expected to begin in late winter/early spring. The total cost for the support group will be $325, which is billable to most insurances. Please call or email us if you are interested in joining!
