About the Event

Guiding Your Client To Recovery from Grief and Loss

with Aviva Keren Barnett

This live online interactive course will highlight what it is like to work with illness, loss and death in the therapeutic space.

Convenient Evening Online Classes @ 8:30-10:30 pm (Israel time)

The course will endeavour to explore the different dimensions of existence ( social, personal, physical and spiritual) and how death, loss, and illness affects each dimension and how we as therapists can work with it.

The course will leave you understanding the difference between a sudden loss and an anticipated loss.

You will leave the course understanding what different types of losses are, and how they impact the individual.

You will be put face to face with your own lives and leave the course energised and ready to embrace life!

Using role plays you will be the therapist, or client and get to use your practical skills of reflecting back, summarising, clarifying and working with silence.
