Losing a loved one is difficult. Lehigh Valley Health Network’s bereavement services offer emotional, psychological and spiritual support through a variety of group and individual counseling options to help people cope with grief and loss.

We are pleased to be offering support groups in smaller sizes, virtually through WebEx video conferencing. Days/times of our groups may have changed. Please call Lehigh Valley Bereavement Services at 610-402-7481 for more information.

Individual, family and couples counseling

This service provides bereaved family and friends the opportunity to get the individual attention they need to help transition through the grieving process. It also serves to support the family dynamic structures that may be impacted during this difficult time. Appointments are seen at our Hospice Offices: 2024 Lehigh Street, Allentown, PA 18103. Call (610) 402-7481 to make an appointment.

Stepping Stones for Children

Stepping Stones for Children offers a combination of education, arts, activities and support to help children ages 6-15 facilitate healthy grieving.  Led by specially educated counseling staff and volunteers, children benefit by learning age-appropriate concepts about death and dealing with grief.

The program offers the opportunity to express feelings in a safe and constructive environment where children are surrounded by other children who understand what they are going through.

Parents also may benefit from this program. They can learn grief management tools to use with their child and have the opportunity to interact with other parents of bereaved children.  A parent or guardian is required to attend with the child.

Next 4 week session:  March 8, 15, 22, 29, 2023.  6:00-7:30 pm at 2024 Lehigh Street, Allentown.
