Grief impacts all of us on so many levels, though we don’t talk about it (enough)! We will explore what gets in the way of us talking about grief, anticipatory grief, stigmatized losses, disenfranchised grief and more in the seminar. Participants will leave with tangible tools and practical ideas to better understand the grieving process, as there are so many layers.
This session offers 1.5 CEUs for Social Work.
Learning Objectives:
– Participants will be able to identify how grief manifests uniquely in children and adolescents, and apply age-appropriate support strategies.
– Participants will be able to assess personal biases and assumptions regarding death and dying to foster an open, empathetic approach to caregiving.
– Participants will be able to develop a personalized self-care plan to manage compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma, and professional burnout.
