About the Compassionate Support Community

The Compassionate Grief Support Community is a heart-centered space created to walk beside you with empathy, presence, and understanding.

 

Whether you’re navigating loss, heartbreak, caregiving for an aging parent or loved one, facing a difficult diagnosis, or moving through one of life’s quiet turning points — you don’t have to do it alone.

 

I offer gentle support that honors your unique path, helping you reconnect with moments of hope and meaning, even in times of uncertainty.Alongside ongoing individual and group offerings, I provide thoughtfully designed educational experiences for organizations, caregivers, and professionals — each one rooted in compassion, lived experience, and the belief that how we show up for one another truly matters.

 

If this speaks to you, I invite you to explore the Compassionate Support Community.

Compassionate Grief Support Circle

Facilitated by Ellen M. Craine

​

The Compassionate Grief Support Circle

Grief and change can leave us feeling overwhelmed and exhausted; especially when the world expects us to carry on as if nothing has shifted. Whether you’re grieving a loved one, adjusting to a difficult diagnosis, caring for an aging parent, or quietly navigating a loss that others may not see, this is a space where you don’t have to hold it all alone.

The Compassionate Support Circle is a free, heart-centered gathering where we come together in community. There’s no need for the right words or a polished story. Just bring yourself. Here, we honor the full spectrum of loss, the complexity of caregiving, and the quiet strength it takes to keep showing up.

​

You’re Welcome Here

     âœ¨ You don’t have to fix anything.
