This core introductory text, with a focus on clinical application,
combines the knowledge and skills of counseling psychology with
current theory and research in grief and bereavement. The third
edition is updated to address issues related to the developmental
aspects of grief, including grief in children and young people,
grief as a lifespan concept, and grief in an increasingly aging
demographic. It describes new therapeutic approaches and examines
the neurological basis of grief as well as with trauma from
disruption and loss. Also emphasized is the role of diversity,
along with cultural considerations in grief counseling.
Instructor's resources now include a test bank, an Instructors
Manual, and updated Power Point slides. User-friendly, while
grounded in the latest research and theoretical constructs, the
text offers such pedagogical aids as learning objectives, practice
examples, glossary terms, and questions for reflection in each
chapter. Above all, the book addresses grief counseling and support
in a way that is informed, practical. The content explores concepts
relevant to complicated grief, while differentiating the normal
human experience of grief from mental disorders. Print version of
the book includes free, searchable, digital access to entire
