Treatment of Complicated Mourning (Paperback)

This is the first book to focus specifically on complicated mourning, often referred to as pathological, unresolved, or abnormal grief. It provides caregivers with practical therapeutic strategies and specific interventions that are necessary when traditional grief counseling is insufficient.

The author provides critically important information on the prediction, identification, assessment, classification, and treatment of complicated mourning.
