The Grief Warrior Project is now offering individual support sessions on Wednesday mornings and Thursday late afternoons with a mental health professional who has lived the experience of the devastating loss of her husband to suicide.
Individual sessions are available by appointment on Wednesdays, at 9:00, 10:00 and 11:00 am, and on Thursdays, at 4:00, 5:00 and 6:00 pm, for $35.00 per session. These can be done in person, by telephone or on-line. (Other times may be available, on a week by week basis.)
And, beginning Tuesday, August 4th at 6:00 pm, The Grief Warrior’s survivors of suicide loss support group will begin again, and now will meet at the offices of Heritage Health Services, 124 Canal Street, Suite C, in Lewiston. Because of the COVID 19 pandemic, the group is limited to 4 participants in any session. Please call in advance to be sure there is space available. The support group is free of charge.
For more information or to make an appointment, please call Linda Snyder, M.S. at 207/713.0674. She can also be reached at warriorprojectmaine@gmail.com.

In memory of my beloved husband John Kelly Snyder… 20 Sept 1956 – 21 Oct 2016.
My Johnny was a true warrior, fighting demons no one else could see. I thought he was the strongest man in the world, and perhaps he was, but tragically, the demons got the better of him in this life.
The name of this project is in no way intended to be reflective of, or piggy back off, Wounded Warriors which serves those military personnel wounded after September 11, 20o1. Like too many others, John was a warrior long before then.
Fair winds and following seas, Husband.

Despite decades of disbelief, I have come to realize that our loved ones are able to communicate with us through the life/death barrier. My Johnny has proved this in ways that I can’t attribute to my own mind making things up… there have been complex coincidences and synchronicities, extraordinary happenings, and messages through others who could not possibly have any knowledge of the information they’ve passed on. Truly mind-blowing stuff. I don’t yet have a coherent sense of what I believe about life after death, but I know my husband loved me with everything he had, and that he still does. Our wedding vows were “to death and beyond” and that has proved true for both of us.
I can’t tell you how it all works, or how you can get through to your own loved one, but if you’re interested, I can tell you of my experiences and my thoughts on this.
