Basics of Grief Live Training 1/31

The Basics of Grief is a 4-hour live training created for mental health professionals who want a deeper, more practical understanding of how grief shows up in clinical work.

Grief is not a single experience, and it rarely stays confined to emotions alone. This training offers a comprehensive, evidence-informed foundation to help clinicians confidently support clients navigating loss in all its forms.

During this training, you will learn how to:

• Distinguish between different types of grief and loss, including anticipated, complicated, traumatic, disenfranchised, ambiguous, and non-death losses—so you can more accurately conceptualize client experiences.

• Apply current, evidence-informed grief theories to real-world clinical practice, bridging theory and intervention in ways that feel accessible and relevant.

• Assess grief’s impact across multiple domains of functioning, including cognitive, emotional, physical, social, spiritual, occupational, and psychological areas, allowing for more holistic treatment planning.

• Help clients identify and work through unfinished business, such as unresolved relationships, unspoken goodbyes, guilt, anger, or meaning-making struggles that often complicate grief.

• Integrate practical resources and therapeutic tools that enhance client care, strengthen clinical confidence, and support clients both inside and outside of sessions.

This training is ideal for clinicians who want a solid grief foundation, clearer assessment skills, and tangible tools they can immediately bring into their work with grieving clients.
