Grief Therapy Masterclass. by Neimeyer, Robert,actor.; Yalom, Victor,actor.; Psychotherapy.net (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Robert Neimeyer, Victor YalomOriginally produced by Psychotherapy.net in 2023.Loss is a frequent visitor, shattering our clients' sense of how life should be, leaving them struggling to re-gain control, and to put the pieces of their lives back together. In this first volume, renowned grief expert Robert Neimeyer lays out the cornerstone principles of his meaning-based model, clearly explaining the three areas in which clients frequently get stuck: The event story of the death, the relationship with the deceased, and the struggle for a new sense of identity after the loss. Then you'll see him bring these principles to life as he works with actual clients, demonstrating how to effectively assist them in moving forward through the grief process.Neimeyer makes the case that therapy with these clients requires a willingness to accompany them into 'the heart of darkness and to then earn the opportunity to walk with them toward the light. By watching him work in a resilience-informed way with clients who have experienced a variety of losses - some traumatic - you will learn effective ways to help them regulate their emotions, rescript or rewrite their relationship with the deceased, and redefine their sense of identity following the loss.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
