Grief Support
You do not have to carry grief alone.
Treasure Coast Hospice provides professional grief counseling, support groups, and community programs for adults, children, and families navigating loss — open to anyone in Martin, St. Lucie, and Okeechobee counties, regardless of whether your loved one was in our care.
Support for Every Step of Your Grief Journey
Grief support is open to the entire community
Many people who call us assume grief counseling is only for families who were already enrolled in hospice. It is not. Our counselors at the Thomas Counseling Center and the Mayes Center serve anyone in the community who has experienced a loss — whether it was recent or years ago, expected or sudden, a parent, a child, a partner, or a close friend.
Reaching out does not mean committing to a program or a schedule. It starts a conversation with someone who has the time to listen and the experience to help.
Support Groups
Connect with others who understand your experience through professionally facilitated support groups that provide a safe, welcoming space to share, and heal.
Children & Family Programs
Specialized programs like Good Grief help children, teens, and families process loss through age-appropriate activities, counseling, and peer support.
Upcoming Events
Throughout the year, Treasure Health offers a variety of grief support events, educational workshops, remembrance ceremonies, and family programs designed to provide comfort, connection, and hope. Whether you're looking to learn more about the grieving process, honor the memory of a loved one, or connect with others who understand your journey, our events offer a welcoming and supportive environment for healing.
Walking alongside our community through life's most difficult moments.
What's unique to our hospice is that our grief services are open to anyone. So if their loved one died outside of hospice care — a car accident, murder or suicide, or an illness if they didn't come onto hospice care — we also provide the same level of counseling and support.

Who we serve, and how to reach us.
Treasure Coast Hospice serves adults, children, and families in Martin, St. Lucie, and Okeechobee counties who have experienced any type of loss — anticipated or sudden, recent or long past. No referral is required before you call, and no family is turned away due to financial hardship.
Call or reach out
Call 772-403-4530 to speak with our team. There is no form to complete before your first call, and speaking with us is not a commitment to counseling.
Talk with a counselor
A licensed counselor listens to what you are going through, answers your questions, and helps you understand what kinds of support are available.
Find the right fit
Based on what you share, the team recommends individual counseling, a support group, Camp Good Grief, or a combination of approaches.
Begin at your pace
Whether you start with a single session or a longer-term commitment, the counseling team works with you on your timeline and your terms.
