August 29, 2024Taking care of your mental health is as important as taking care of your physical health. This summer BALANCE is pleased to provide a special series of online mental health support pop-up sessions. Open to all persons living with a visual disability, these workshops provide a safe, welcoming space to explore effective strategies for managing stress, anxiety, and other mental health challenges.
Title: How to Cope with Grief and Loss of Sight
Description: This workshop led by Social Worker and BALANCE Counsellor Melanie Marsden will cover the 5 stages of grief and accompanying coping strategies. We will also challenge common beliefs and misconceptions around the impact of sight loss and living a fulfilling life. Our goal is for attendees to feel empowered in dealing with grief and its impact.
