Understanding loss and its effects is integral to effective counseling and support in the treatment of grief.

In the second part of the book, creative exercises encourage clients to engage with their stories and actively apply their discoveries to their own healing. Offering a straightforward guide to bereavement models and therapeutic approaches, with photocopiable exercises and worksheets, The Creative Toolkit for Working with Grief and Bereavement is a valuable resource for information on grief and how to help grieving clients, and an invitation to explore creative possibilities for healing.Claudia Coenen is a certified grief counselor in private practice at The Karuna Project in Hudson, New York.
