The Hard Stuff: Estrangement (Virtual)
Mon July 15, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

The Hard Stuff, not fixing, just listening. Join CLC and licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Sheila Koren to talk about estrangements.
Sometimes called “The Silent Epidemic” Estrangements can cause damaging amounts of shame and pain.
People experiencing the taboo of estrangement from brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, and grandchildren often do not have anyone to share feelings of “disenfranchised grief,” which is bereavement that is not socially supported or publicly acknowledged. According to Ed Ergenzinger, J.D., Ph.D. “Disenfranchised grief is deeply personal and varies widely, and it can cause sleeplessness, angry outbursts, bouts of tearfulness, loneliness, withdrawal, difficulty with self-care, forgetfulness, and lack of concentration or focus.”
