- 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.- Subjects: Documentary films.; Health.; Social sciences.; Psychology.; Instructional films.; Mental health.; Documentary films.; Grief.; Death.; Emotions.; Psychotherapists.; Cognitive therapy.; Self-help techniques.;

- The seven o'clock club / by Ireland, Amelia,author.;
"Four strangers are brought together to participate in an experimental treatment designed to heal broken hearts in this surprising and heartfelt debut novel from author Amelia Ireland. In a perfectly ordinary building, four strangers who couldn't be more different meet for the first time. Their skepticism of this new kind of grief therapy-and the unnervingly perceptive group leader-means they're all wary, but as the weeks go by, they find themselves returning again and again, pulled to work toward healing, even if it means first facing the pain head-on. A sharp-tongued lawyer who has no intention of letting down her walls, a fragile young woman looking for a place to belong, a musician at the top of his game who's one drink away from losing it all, and an interior designer facing the crumbling of her picture-perfect life-this unlikely group slowly opens up, not only to the possibility of a happier future but to friendship, change, and even romance. When a startling revelation reveals the real reason they were chosen for this group, it shakes the very foundation of what they thought they knew. What began as a journey designed to heal turns out to be a much greater test of friendship, strength, and love as they realize happiness is just outside the door ... if they're brave enough to seek it"--- Subjects: Magic realist fiction.; Psychological fiction.; Novels.; Friendship; Grief therapy; Grief; Healing; Interior decorators; Interpersonal relations; Man-woman relationships; Musicians; Strangers; Women lawyers; Young women;

- Something, not nothing [graphic novel] : a story of grief and love / by Leavitt, Sarah,1969-author,illustrator.;
"In April 2020, cartoonist Sarah Leavitt's partner of twenty-two years, Donimo, died with medical assistance after years of severe chronic pain and a rapid decline at the end of her life. About a month after Donimo's death, Sarah began making comics again as a way to deal with her profound sense of grief and loss. The comics started as small sketches but quickly transformed into something totally unfamiliar to her. Abstract images, textures, poetic text, layers of watercolor, ink, and colored pencil-for Sarah, the journey through grief was impossible to convey without bold formal experimentation. She spent two years creating these comics. The result is Something, Not Nothing, an extraordinary book that delicately articulates the vagaries of grief and the sweet remembrances of enduring love. Moving and impressionistic, Something, Not Nothing shows that alongside grief, there is room for peace, joy, and new beginnings."--Publisher.- Subjects: Autobiographical comics.; Nonfiction comics.; Graphic novels.; Personal narratives.; Leavitt, Sarah, 1969-; Art therapy; Bereavement; Grief;

- Through the wilderness : my journey of redemption and healing in the American wild / by Orsted, Brad,author.;
"Award-winning Yellowstone photographer and documentary filmmaker Brad Orsted's seven-year search for refuge and redemption in America's greatest wilderness. When Brad Orsted's fifteen-month-old daughter, Marley, died mysteriously at the home of Brad's mother, he descended into madness. Blaming himself, he plunged into an abyss of grief, guilt, and self-recrimination, fueled by prescription drugs and alcohol. He planned his suicide as his wife, Stacey, searched for a new beginning. She finally found a job in Yellowstone National Park and, with their daughters, Mazzy and Chloe, the pair fled Michigan, looking for refuge and redemption in the 2.2 million acres of glorious American wilderness. Through the Wilderness begins in Yellowstone, five months after the family's arrival in 2012, when, in an alcoholic haze, Brad stumbled into a field of sage and survived a face-to-face encounter with an adult male grizzly bear. For the first time in almost two years, he realized he wanted to live--he just didn't know how. Desperate for help, Brad invited himself to a Crow sweat lodge ceremony, where an elder told him it was time to stop grieving. The elder's words started Brad on a journey towards sobriety and inner peace, only possible because of lessons he learned in the wild, his new job as a wildlife photographer and filmmaker, and two orphan grizzly cubs who carried him back home and taught him how to live again. Brad's ten-year odyssey is about finding the wild inside the human heart. It is a journey of the spirit--a journey to forgiveness and sobriety, to love and life, to memory, and ultimately, to Marley"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Orsted, Brad.; Adventure therapy.; Alcoholics; Grizzly bear.; Parental grief.; Wildlife photographers;

- Every minute is a day : a doctor, an emergency room, and a city under siege / by Meyer, Robert(Robert H.),author.; Koeppel, Dan,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."An urgent, on-the-ground account of chaos and compassion from the front lines of COVID-19, from a New York Times journalist and a senior doctor at New York City's busiest emergency room. When Dan Koeppel texted his cousin Robert Meyer, a twenty-year veteran of the emergency room at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, at the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis in the United States, he expected to hear that things were hectic. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being overwhelmed, where do you think you are? Koeppel asked. Meyer's grave reply-100-was merely the cusp of the crisis that has since touched every part of the globe. In need of an outlet to process the trauma of his working life over the coming months, Meyer continued to update Koeppel with what he'd seen and whom he'd treated, their exchanges acting as part diary, part family therapy, and eventually a document of historic chaos and grief. Combining the frontline perspective of an ER doctor and a journalist's discerning research and reporting, Every Minute Is a Day takes us into a hospital ravaged by COVID-19, filled with the stories of promises made that may be impossible to keep, of life and death choices for patients and their families, and of selflessness on the part of medical professionals who put themselves at incalculable risk. As fast-paced and high-tempo as the ER in which it takes place, Every Minute Is a Day is at its core an incomparable firsthand account of unrelenting compassion and a reminder that every human life deserves a chance to be saved"--- Subjects: Meyer, Robert (Robert H.); Montefiore Medical Center.; COVID-19 (Disease); COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-; Emergency physicians; Hospitals;

She has her anxious therapy patients, who depend on her to cure their bad habits, and her longtime colleagues Boomer and Theo, whose playful bickering she mediates. She successfully avoids all discussion of her upcoming 70th birthday and has even brokered a tentative truce with her late best friend Sara's widower, Fred. Magda has her routines. She has other people's lives to fix. She's fine. But when Fred gifts her Sara's journal, she discovers plans for the road trip they always meant to take scribbled inside.

- What Does It Feel Like? [electronic resource] : by Kinsella, Sophie.aut; cloudLibrary;
From #1 bestselling author Sophie Kinsella, an unforgettable story—by turns heartbreaking and life-affirming—of a renowned novelist facing a devastating diagnosis and learning to live and love anew. “The bravest book you’ll read all year.”—Jodi Picoult   “What Does It Feel Like? is fiction, but it is my most autobiographical work to date. Eve’s story is my story.”—Sophie Kinsella   Eve is a successful novelist who wakes up one day in a hospital bed with no memory of how she got there. Her husband, never far from her side, explains that she has had an operation to remove the large, malignant tumor growing in her brain. As Eve learns to walk, talk, and write again—and as she wrestles with her diagnosis, and how and when to explain it to her beloved children—she begins to recall what’s most important to her: long walks with her husband’s hand clasped firmly around her own, family game nights, and always buying that dress when she sees it. Recounted in brief anecdotes, each one is an attempt to answer the type of impossible questions recognizable to anyone navigating the labyrinth of grief. This short, extraordinary novel is a celebration of life, shot through with warmth and humor—it will both break your heart and put it back together again. “Why did I write such a personal book? I have always processed my life through writing. Hiding behind my fictional characters, I have always turned my own life into a narrative. It is my version of therapy, maybe. Writing is my happy place, and writing this book, although tough going at times, was immensely satisfying and therapeutic for me.”—Sophie Kinsella- Subjects: Electronic books.; Literary; Family Life; Contemporary Women;

Sam Easton-a true survivor-is home from Afghanistan, trying to rebuild a life in his hometown of LA. Separated from his wife, bartending and therapy sessions are what occupy his days and nights. When friend and colleague Melody Traeger is beaten by her boyfriend, she turns to Sam for help. When the boyfriend turns up dead the next day, a hard case like Sam is the perfect suspect. But LAPD Detective Margaret Nolan, whose brother recently died serving overseas, is sympathetic to Sam's troubles, and can't quite see him as a killer. She's more interested in the secrets Melody might be keeping and the developments in another murder case on the other side of town.
