Welcome!

The Respite: A Centre for Grief & Hope is for those who have suffered great tragedy, a significant life loss, a trauma, a life-shaking, earth-shattering event or series of events….. And, it is also for those who are living with every day losses which are life-changing and life-evolving. 

Our vision is to become THE place to come when you are feeling any kind of loss.  Using a holistic approach we provide a variety of healing modalities and offer hope to all who need us. We aim to shift how grief is viewed in the world – moving from shame and isolation to unveiling grief’s transformative gifts.

Our services and programs are about learning to grieve in a healthy, real, and grounded way.  We welcome grief and provide hope for tomorrow.

Are you ready for the healing to begin?

Watch The Respite's Music Video!

In honor of the Butterfly Fund campaign and to serve as inspiration, Cindy Ballaro, one of The Respite’s co-founders, created a music video singing Martina McBride’s Anyway. The message of this song is to go for your dreams, no matter the outcome…do it anyway. This is one of the highly valued philosophies at The Respite.

The Respite proudly supports soldiers and their families.

We are greatly aware of the sacrifices that are made by the armed forces and their families every day. We wish to give back to those who have endured such sacrifices, and continue to live with them daily, by offering support services through our center. Please use us as a resource to assist you in any way we can. Thank you for your service.
