Description
Are you wondering how to go on after the death of someone you love?
Do you wish you felt confident about dealing with loss and grief?
Are you longing for healing, peace, and real help for bereavement?
Part grief memoir and part guidebook, this practical reference goes beyond grief recovery and provides training in grief resilience, which is a skill set that can be learned, practiced, and incorporated into your life.
Written by a licensed clinical social worker who is also a bereaved mother, the book presents a unique system, combining insights from both her professional background in grief counseling and grief therapy, and her personal experience. This approach builds grief resilience and transforms the reader from heartache to healing, wellness, and growth.
Losing someone you love can be a devastating experience. It is often excruciatingly painful and hard to wrap your mind around. Trying to take in this new reality and figuring out how to move forward can leave you overwhelmed, shattered, heartbroken, and frightened. And because it feels impossible to accept the unacceptable, we learn by osmosis to put misery on the back burner and pretend we're mostly okay.
But we're not okay; this is not business as usual. We're left with that burning question:
"How do I go on?"
The 4 Facets of Grief is a fresh approach to navigating love and loss, incorporating the most current thinking on resilience and growth.
You will learn:
- Techniques for accepting the unacceptable
- Ways of rebuilding your world and reclaiming hope
