Living with Grief provides a guide to how to live when others have died.
Written by a therapist and counsellor who specialises in Grief, Loss and Bereavement, it helps readers gain insight into some of the processes that might be happening when things feel overwhelming. Following an effective Q&A framework, it offers a valuable ‘dip in and out’ approach with good signposting to guidance on all the questions that those touched by grief need to know. Organised into short manageable chapters, the book provides strategies to offer understanding and compassion to gently encourage readers to think about what is going on for them during this time. It introduces a diverse and inclusive cast of characters who are going through grief themselves in various different circumstances to reflect modern culture and the issues people face. It also includes coverage about the social context in which the griever lives and the role of social media and how that can play into competitive and performative aspects of grief.
This book acts as a compassionate companion for those figuring out how to live with grief. It is also valuable reading for counsellors, mental health professionals and other health and social care professionals
