Support Group for Students Dealing with the Loss of a Parent

Coping with the loss of a parent during studies may present students with significant personal and academic challenges. Academic demands and the routine of life continue alongside the grieving process and personal coping.

 


In recognition of this complexity, a support group has been established at Reichman University for students who have lost a parent over the past two years.

 


The group is designated to provide the participants with a professional, safe and supportive space, where they can share their experiences and difficulties, meet students who have experienced a similar loss, and receive tools for coping with their grief. As part of the meetings, space will be provided, inter alia, for challenges related to continuing studies and routine life, as well as changes in family, social and romantic relationships as a result of the loss.

 


Each semester, a new class is opened, which is intended for students from all the schools at Reichman University who meet the conditions for participating.

 


Each cycle takes place over the course of one semester and includes approximately 10 weekly frontal sessions, led by a clinical social worker.

 


The frontal meetings of the group take place on Reichman University campus, over the course of one semester, and include about 10 weekly meetings. Each meeting lasts about an hour and a half and takes place in the evening. The meetings are held in Hebrew and participation is free of charge.

 


The group is open to students from all the schools at Reichman University. Students for whom the group is relevant and who are interested in receiving more information are kindly asked to provide their details by means of the interest form.
