No one should have

to grieve alone…

Here, you don’t have to.

The Friends Missing Friends Collective is a loving, supportive community for people grieving friends.

You’re tired of feeling isolated and misunderstood on top of your grief.

Your friend means the world to you, and yet society is dismissing your grief.

You wish you could be with others who GET it without you having to explain.

You wish you could have space to talk about your friend without making people feel “uncomfortable” (because they can’t handle the grief).

You’re sick of pretending like you’re doing okay, when you’re not.

You wish you could plug into a community of friend-loss grievers without having to create one yourself.

I understand.

10 years ago I spent hours upon hours crying alone on my bed after my friend Lauren’s death.

I had no idea where to turn. I had a therapist, yes, but that was one hour a week. What about the other 167 hours? How was I supposed to get through them?

Especially with disenfranchised grief (and yes — friend-loss grief is very disenfranchised), we need community. We need to be seen, heard, and understood.

But guess what? Most of the time, in modern day life, we do not get fully and deeply witnessed.

If we want to find a specific community, we usually have to create our own from scratch — but that’s a lot of work. And when you’re exhausted, and grieving, how would you even begin?

Then it hit me.

What if there was an existing community of people grieving friends, and it was easy to find them? And talk to them? And reach out to them for support?

That is why I made The Collective.

Overwhelmed by all the options? Don’t want or need it all?

Think of it like this: even if you only attend one group session a month & nothing else, you are still getting a steal at $20.

I designed it that way — because I know first-hand the overwhelm of deep grief. The various forms of support are there for you, anytime, if and when you want them.

Right now, if all you can handle is to jump on one Zoom call and not say a word, that is perfectly okay. And you are still getting your money’s worth.

Hear from past Grief Group attendees…

  • "Hannah created and held such an important and beautiful space…Our weekly times together were filled with love, pain, laughter, memories, tears, questions, support and deep connection as we got to know each other and our friends."

    Nina

  • “It was a wonderful experience. It was the first time in a bereavement group that I felt completely seen. There were unique dynamics that I didn't know that I needed represented.”

    Novelette

  • “It meant a lot to be with other people who have physically lost dear friends. This actually was very timely for me, as my college best friend’s death anniversary was right in the middle of our timeline.”

    Tina

  • “I felt lighter each time I logged off the zoom, reflecting and carrying with me the stories and wisdom of the others through the week, and I looked forward to spending time with everyone again.”

    Nina

  • “I got far more out of it than I ever, ever, ever thought I would. I’m more comfortable talking about grief now!”

    Kim

  • “We all came with a different experience of friend bereavement and Hannah facilitated with a compassion and openness that allowed our grief, ourselves and our friends to be present. Thank you Hannah!”

    Nina

  • “In times of darkness and grief this group was a glimmer of light. It felt healing to be heard and to hear others and relate and commiserate with their grief.”

    Jem

  • “It was so comforting to hear about others' experiences of friend-loss and to know I wasn't alone.”
