Grief is unique, its support should be too.
At The Healing Center, we have something unique to offer.
The Healing Center provides some of the most comprehensive grief support in Washington state—serving everyone from toddlers and teens, to the LGBTQIA+ community, seniors, and more—free of charge.
No one meeting our service criteria is turned away, and there’s no limit to how many meetings clients can attend. To combat the isolation that grief often causes, all our services are group-based, but there’s no pep-talking or unsolicited advice. At The Healing Center, clients come as they are, speak their minds, and craft their own journeys.
These unique features create our extraordinary atmosphere—a place where grieving families can share memories, learnings, challenges, and even laughter. A place where, though brought together by loss, people often gain lifelong friendships and networks of support that far exceed the traditional counseling setting.
"The Healing Center allowed me to be okay with having a dead dad. The whole world was telling me that I didn’t fit in. But at The Healing Center, I didn’t feel different, and for the first time I had friends that were like me, who had experienced the same types of loss.”
“My group leader held space for laughter, as well as sadness. This, more than anything, contributed to my healing after my husband died.”
“Over the course of attending group every Wednesday night, and my kids attending their groups, these strangers became a community that understood our grief.”
"For many weeks and even months, group was the only thing that kept me going."
“What a relief to be in the company of other parents navigating the experience of recent loss.”
“There are about 10 young adults in my group - all of us have lost parents and siblings too soon. We meet twice a month to process the gut punches and trapdoors of grief and help each other feel less alone.”
The Healing Center is a beacon of light during the darkest times of clients’ lives. And because grieving families already have enough to worry about, all our services are free.
Your gift today will ensure we continue to be there for people on their darkest days - equipping us to hire therapists and run programs that serve the unique faces of grief.
Will you join us to bring meaning and community to more people facing pain and isolation?
