Griefshare might have a "Surviving the Holidays" event in your area. This is a two-hour seminar to help you deal with grief during the holiday season. There's a 40 minute video with practical tips and suggestions, there's a group discussion, and you'll receive a Holiday Survival Guide.
Visit Griefshare and enter your zipcode to find the event location closest to you.
Also there are helpful articles and stress-reducing holiday suggestions. I strongly encourage you to take advantage of this helpful website!
