Q&A

Which is more effective, one-on-one or group grief counseling?

Zanna Smith

It depends entirely on the people involved. Being in a group is too much for some people, but those who can be comfortable participating in a group (less than 10 people) more quickly feel supported and understood. It is extremely important, however, that the group leader is a skilled facilitator and well-trained in grief counseling.
