Whether or not your loved one used hospice services, our compassionate bereavement counselors will guide you and your family though the grieving process. Grief support services are provided at no cost and are available to the community in Orange, Seminole, and Osceola counties.
Hospice of the Comforter’s adult grief support program helps you rebuild your life by providing grief education, emotional and social support, and community resource referral.
Our master’s level counselors provide short-term individual counseling, support groups, and educational materials to help bereaved clients heal from their grief. Families of Hospice of the Comforter patients also receive telephone calls and mailings following the death of their loved one.
By creating a comfortable environment to share emotions and normalizing the grief process, the counselors at Hospice of the Comforter’s Horizons Bereavement Center help grieving persons achieve personal growth and adjust to the new reality of their lives following their loved one’s death.

Eligibility for counseling services is determined by the bereavement counselor who performs the initial telephone intake. Grieving persons who are in need of long-term counseling, psychothe rapy, or intensive mental health treatment will be referred to an outside resource. For example, persons who present with symptoms of addiction or a mental health disorder may be referred to outside community resources, as they may not be best served by our short-term counseling services.
