While grief is most often associated with death, children and adolescents experience grief from a variety of non-death losses as well.
And our young clients have experienced unprecedented and cumulative losses over the past three years. Some of these include parental divorce, school changes, trauma, personal breakups, abuse or neglect, foster care or adoption, physical and mental illness, parental substance use, and more.
Join Dr. Eric Sirrine, expert in death, dying and bereavement in this session on moving beyond a traditional “staged” or linear model of grief to help you understand and address the complexities of non-death losses. You’ll be empowered to engage in grief-informed practice to help your young clients integrate losses into their ongoing lives in adaptive ways.
