In the course of counselling, you may come across clients who struggle with restoring their lives after losing someone significant in life through different causes of death or losing something important through other non-death losses or unwelcome life transitions (e.g. diagnosis of a major illness, relationship breakdown or retrenchment). This training will introduce a tripartite model based on the meaning reconstruction framework and specifically look into grief and loss from a trauma-informed perspective. This will also equip learners with the relevant meaning-oriented techniques to enable clients to revisit their loss experience and reconstruct their shattered lives in the aftermath of loss.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
-
To conceptualize the impacts of loss on grievers from a trauma-informed perspective
-
To recognize the importance of processing grievers’ loss experience from both self-immersive and self-distancing stances
-
To implement meaning-oriented techniques to facilitate grievers’ post-loss adjustment and reintegrate the loss event and grievers’ broader life narratives
GRIEF COUNSELLING TOPICS COVERED
-
Essential features of the shattered assumptive world and the Dual Process Model
-
Revisitation of a loss event using restorative retelling
-
Use of externalizing conversations for the inner grief
-
Re-examination of the shaken beliefs and personal footing in the aftermath of loss
-
Review of a loss experience in the context of personal loss history
