1st Edition
by Darin D. Schiffman (Author)
Coping with the Death of a Child
shows clinicians how to integrate various therapeutic modalities and
clinical approaches to grief therapy into one comprehensive model linked
to positive change.
This integrated model shows mental health
professionals how to offer practical and emotional support to the
bereaved using descriptions of treatments, care protocols, and
guidelines. Through this approach, practitioners can foster
interpersonal support and growth among families, even when grieving
styles and timing differ between individuals.
Clinicians and the
families they treat will come away from the book with tools for
recognizing distorted and pathogenic exchanges between family members,
for valuing the emotional elements of their individual experiences, and
for shifting toward solution-focused activities.
