Guided Practices for Grievers

Most of these audio clips were recorded by Olga Montgomery, LCSW, during the free peer support groups held at Voyager Counseling. Some were recorded separately. Please use these recordings to the extent that they are supportive and helpful for you—please note that while guided practice, contemplation, & meditation can be supportive for grievers, listening to them is not the same as receiving therapy. We hope they will serve you well & we hope you will reach out your hand for support & connection in & through grief.
