Living Through Loss provides a foundational identification of the
many ways in which people experience loss over the life course,
from childhood to old age. It examines the interventions most
effective at each phase of life, combining theory, sound clinical
practice, and empirical research with insights emerging from
powerful accounts of personal experience. The authors emphasize
that loss and grief are universal yet highly individualized. Loss
comes in many forms and can include not only a loved one's death
but also divorce, adoption, living with chronic illness,
caregiving, retirement and relocation, or being abused, assaulted,
or otherwise traumatized. They approach the topic from the
perspective of the resilience model, which acknowledges people's
capacity to find meaning in their losses and integrate grief into
their lives. The book explores the varying roles of age, race,
culture, sexual orientation, gender, and spirituality in responses
to loss. Presenting a variety of models, approaches, and resources,
Living Through Loss offers invaluable lessons that can be applied
in any practice setting by a wide range of human service and health
care professionals. This second edition features new and expanded
content on diversity and trauma, including discussions of gun
violence, police brutality, suicide, and an added focus on systemic
racism.
