PY 623 Strategies for Treating Grief and Bereavement


This course introduces the student to the theory and practice of bereavement and grieving. Development issues are discussed as they relate to the bereavement process. This is an introductory course in grief counseling, designed to provide students with basic terminology, theory and concepts about grief and loss, as well as theoretical and practical techniques and interventions relevant to specific types of losses. This course is not a forum for working through personal unresolved losses, but students should be aware that the class will be intense and some personal issues regarding death and grief may surface.

Prerequisite: PY 572  and PY 586 .
