Support Sessions for TU Delft Staff

Guided grief workshops for professionals at TU Delft

Understanding Grief in the Academic Workplace

Grief does not wait for a convenient moment and for staff members at TU Delft, it often intersects with the responsibilities of a demanding academic environment. Supervising students, managing research obligations, fulfilling teaching duties, and keeping departments running can leave little space to truly process personal loss.

MoTiv offers dedicated “Living with Loss” workshops exclusively for TU Delft employees. These sessions provide a supportive, confidential environment for personal reflection, healing, and mutual understanding — all tailored to the pressures and pace of your professional role.

What the Workshop Offers

🧭 Workshop Series Structure

  • 5 guided group sessions, each lasting 2 hours.
  • Small group setting (max. 6 participants) to ensure trust and connection.
  • Preliminary one-on-one intake session to tailor the experience to your needs.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Who Is It For?

  • Academic staff at TU Delft (e.g. lecturers, support staff, professors, departmental coordinators).

  • Those experiencing recent or past loss who seek tools and support to process it meaningfully.

  • Staff balancing personal grief with professional responsibilities such as supervision, departmental work, or teaching duties.

For International Students & PhD's

In addition to students, we also focus specifically on PhDs and internationals because your context is different from that of other students.

  • You supervise students/researchers who require your full attention
  • You have responsibilities to clients and obligations within the department
  • Your commitment and concentration are required, which leaves little time to process a loss in a fundamental way
  • Your home situation may also be so different that extra attention is needed.

Support Options

  • Peer Connection: Share experiences in a group of fellow staff members who understand your context.

  • Professional Relevance: Sessions are designed with the realities of academic work in mind.

  • Personal Attention: Your grief journey is unique. The personal intake ensures a meaningful, customized experience.

  • One-on-One Coaching (Optional): Need additional support? We offer personal grief coaching for deeper reflection.
