Description

Most people think grief only relates to death. As such, so many discount and judge their loss experiences as “no big deal.” But now more than ever clinicians are discovering that the grief inherent in daily life has a huge impact on our clients, regardless of why they’re seeking support or treatment. In this session, Megan will show you how to recognize grief unrelated to death, change the culture about how we view these non-death losses and give you clinical solutions for improving support and connection.
