Bereavement awareness for counsellors

The aim of this webinar is to gain a deeper understanding of bereavement and loss, and to reflect on your own thoughts and feelings about grief and how this may affect your helping.

You will gain an understanding of bereavement theories and how to apply these theories in practice. Factors affecting bereaved people and their possible reactions are also considered and we'll end by discussing assessment options and how we actually work with a bereaved client.
