Tea & Talk: Anxiety: The Missing Stage of Grief

Spiritual Renewal Center 1342 Lancaster Avenue, Syracuse

Read through the month and join us as we discuss "Anxiety: The Missing Stage of Grief" by Claire Bidwell Smith, LCPC.

“A useful work… The insight alone, linking anxiety to grief, is worth the price of admission. If Smith’s ideas of ‘resilient grieving’ help even one reader cope with the trauma and fearful thoughts of anxiety, she will have done a great service.” —Kirkus Reviews
