Children struggling with death-related issues require care and competent assistance from the adults around them. This book serves as a guide for care providers, including counselors, social workers, nurses, educators, clergy, and parents who seek to understand and help children as they attempt to cope with loss.
This book comprehensively discusses death and grieving within the context of the physical, emotional, social, behavioral, spiritual, and cognitive changes that children experience while coping with death. The chapters also explore new critical, imaginative conceptual models and interventions, including expressive arts therapy, resilience-based approaches, new psychotherapeutic approaches, and more.
Key features:
- Presents guidelines for assisting children coping with the loss of parents, siblings, friends, or pets
- Discusses ethical issues in counseling bereaved and seriously ill children
- Provides guidelines for helping children manage their emerging awareness and understanding of death
- Emphasizes research-based, culturally sensitive, and global implications as well as current insights in thanatology
