HSC 550

This course is designed for the study of grief and loss counseling. Though loss is a normal part of living, many clients may be unaware that their symptoms are related to unresolved loss. This course will help counseling students to identify the potential connection between a client's symptoms and unresolved loss and to provide effective treatment. The process of mourning, models of grief counseling and grief therapy will be presented and analyzed to promote greater understanding of how to facilitate bereavement in uncomplicated grief and how to conduct psychotherapy with clients with complicated grief.
