Individual Counseling and Referrals

Mount Evans’ social workers are trained in coping, grief, and loss issues. We provide short-term counseling to individuals.

Bereavement Volunteers

Specially trained clinicians and volunteers are matched according to an individual’s specific needs and provide supportive care by telephone, through our support groups, or with individual/family counseling as indicated.

All of our support groups are in person.

And, as the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) describes, “They are employed to effect positive change with individuals, families, groups and entire communities.”
