Grief Psychology

The issues that surround the loss of a spouse are numerous and complex. A very small sampling of these issues include helping children cope with a parent's death, re-entering the workplace and eventually re-entering the world of dating, love and intimacy; as well as moving through a profoundly emotional period. The widowed must find a way to accept and deal with these oftentimes conflicting and confusing emotions while being expected to "carry on and carry forward" by those around them.

During the COVID pandemic, hundreds of thousands of people have lost loved ones. Loss and grief are all around us. Dealing with the pain can become a daily struggle for those left behind. To create context for my workbook, I discuss my own range of life experiences. I also explore the stages which most survivors experience. At the core, those stages are denial, guilt, anger, bargaining, and depression. This audiobook is not a step-by-step checkpoint of the stages. I present a holistic approach that provides practical, workbook-style explorations of where you are in your own journey.
