The Price We Pay: Grief and Loss

This four-hour training will examine the all too human and universal experience of grief. Specifically, the grief we feel when someone we love, or is important in our lives, dies. For some in our death-denying culture, grief is a topic that is too uncomfortable or painful to discuss openly. In this training, we will talk about the differences between Normal Grief and Complicated Grief, discuss various models of grief, examine some of the differences between grief and depression, and explore styles of grief.
