Grief is one of the top 3 reasons that people come to therapy. In grad school, many therapists did not have a separate course on how to address grief with our clients. Yet, unresolved grief from significant losses (not exclusive to the death of a loved one) is often underlying the depressive and anxiety symptoms that lead clients to our offices.

depression and anxiety before sending them to a grief group.

Grief is one of the top 3 reasons that people come to therapy.  Therapists’ trainings don’t usually have specific information on how to address grief with our clients. Yet, unresolved grief from significant losses (not only related to the death of a loved one)  often underlies the depressive and anxiety symptoms that lead clients to our offices.

This webinar covers:

  4. Top 10 questions to ask clients when they’ve experienced a significant loss
  5. How to address grief from the first session
  6. How to help your clients with preparing for significant holidays/anniversaries without their loved one.

Students will be supported to:

  1. Identify at least 3 theoretical orientations re grief.
  2. Identify at least 5 symptoms that indicate unresolved grief.
  3. Identify at least 3 ways to address grief directly with clients in the office.
  4. Identify 5 questions to use in session with a grief client.
  5. Identify strategies for dealing with clients’ holiday and anniversary reactions.
