Retreats

We believe that a retreat experience is one piece in helping families express their deep grief and learn more about grief in general.

Single Family or Couples Retreat

The retreat is designed to be a place away from all distractions, allowing you time to reflect and learn how to navigate this journey you find yourselves on. We believe that a retreat experience is one piece in helping families express their deep grief and learn more about grief in general.


We can meet either in person, or online. During our time together, we will walk you through a workbook personalized to suit your family and spend time together discussing certain topics. We will equip you with tools and resources to help you grieve in a healthy way. The facilitators will walk alongside families, not as counselors, but as peers that have been on a similar journey.


While on retreat, you will... 

· Share openly and honestly about your loved one’s story.

· Spend time focusing on the different emotions that parents experience after a child dies and how to deal with these emotions in a healthy way. 

· Develop a deeper understanding of how men & women grieve differently and not to fear the differences.

· Begin to learn how to prepare for the “firsts”.


Retreat dates are flexible and available by appointment. Call us at 605-934-2525 or email karri@healinghopes.com to learn more and get your retreat scheduled today.  

Bereaved Moms Retreats

Throughout the day, you'll experience meaningful sessions, heartfelt conversations, quiet reflection, encouragement, and opportunities to honor your child's memory—all surrounded by women who share a similar journey.


There is no timeline for grief. No expectations. Just grace, understanding, and hope.


Come as you are. Leave knowing you're not alone.


Because your child's life matters. And so does your healing.
