Description
Friends, we’re so excited to have licensed therapist and grief expert, Claire Bidwell Smith on the show to give us some tools and resources for coping with the grief that comes with a Down syndrome diagnosis. Led by her own experiences with grief, and fueled by her work in hospice and private practice, Claire strives to provide support for all kinds of people experiencing grief and is devoted to expanding the conversation around grief and loss. We’re chatting about tools and strategies for grief around a diagnosis, grieving a life we’d imagined for our loved one, managing anxiety around medical issues that can come with a Down syndrome diagnosis, and so much more. No matter where you are in your journey, we want you to know, that you’re not alone. We hope this episode provides some helpful tools, strategies, and support.
