Synopsis:
Life After Loss: Contemporary Grief Counseling and Therapy is a reader friendly book with tools, techniques, and compass points to help others with the experience of grief. Going beyond the well-known but outmoded stage theories of grief, this book explores and illustrates new models of treatment, applying them to the lived experience of bereaved clients. Best applied practices are examined, and the book quickly becomes a go-to resource for typical and complicated facilitation of grief. Topics include:
* Clinical practices for natural and complicated grief processes
* What went wrong with Kubler-Ross stage theory of grief
* The functions of emotions in grief
* The impact of death on the family
* Death, grief, and spirituality
* Loneliness and isolation
* The social and cultural ceremonies of death
* Meaning making and growth following loss
