Renowned author and educator Alan Wolfelt redefines the role of the
grief counselor in this guide for caregivers. His new model for
"companioning" the bereaved gives a viable alternative to the
limitations of the medical establishment, encouraging counselors
and other caregivers to aspire to a more compassionate philosophy.
This approach argues that grief need no longer be defined,
diagnosed, and treated as an illness but rather should be an
acknowledgement of an event that forever changes a person's
worldview. Through careful listening and observation, the caregiver
learns to support mourners and help them help themselves
heal.
