Who should attend this webinar?

Anyone who works in a professional care role or supports people through all forms of loss and grief. Our content is applicable to a wide variety of professions including counsellors, social workers, teachers, emergency response teams, medical, corrections, mental health, hospice, volunteers, caregivers and more. 

Overview

The aim of this webinar is to grow our understandings of loss and grief, and ways to support others facing losses of all kinds throughout life.

Loss is unavoidable in life, and grief is a natural, normal response to loss. As well as taking us to the depths of painful feeling, grief can also contain the potential for significant meaning-making, learning and renewal. When we hold compassionate space for another person’s grief, we demonstrate care and respect for their suffering, and trust in their capacity to journey forward with their loss.

Key learning points

• Acknowledging and appreciating the many losses that people face in life

• Understanding the diverse nature of grief experience: Physical, Emotional, Existential, Traumatic

• Review of psychological models for understanding grief

• Unpacking people’s taken for granted ideas about grief – the “shoulds” and “oughts”

• Helping the person to develop their own most helpful stories about grief – making meaning and learning to do grief my way

• When is it time to make space for big feelings and when is it time to approach healing?

• What might healing through grief look like? What is the counsellor’s contribution?
