PESI offers several free training courses every year on the most current and effective approaches in therapy. It's our way of giving back to our community of clinicians who are doing such important work in the world.
I was unprepared for the sudden death of my son.
People would ask me, “What’s it like for the grief expert to lose his son?”
They’d seen me at lectures, talks, conferences, televisions shows, knew my grief books--some even studied me in college!
They assumed I would somehow be more ready. That the knowledge I had would make me more immune to the heart-wrenching pain. I was experiencing this from the inside out.
The grief expert didn’t lose his son, the father did.
It led me to expand and revisit the stages of grief, making them more flexible, adaptable, and useable than ever before, leading me to add a whole new stage on meaning.
Now in this FREE one-day training I want to share all I’ve learned with you so you can use this updated-framework full of fresh insights, tools, and strategies to enhance your work with today’s grieving clients, including how to:- Embrace an adaptable, non-linear framework for grief stages that prioritizes healing over "fixing."
- Learn meaning-making interventions to help clients renew their sense of purpose, control, and hope.
