This course is a suggested foundational course for all other Center for Loss courses. However, we realize that for certain caregivers, taking just one or two of our specialty courses (such as Support Group Facilitator Training or Helping Children and Adolescents Cope with Grief) without first completing Comprehensive Bereavement Skills Training may make the most sense. Please call, write, or e-mail us if you would like to discuss your unique needs.
Whether you are new to the experience of caring for those in grief or are a veteran bereavement caregiver, we invite you to participate in this popular seminar. Comprehensive Bereavement Skills Training explores a wide range of topics related to bereavement caregiving, including:
Exploring North America’s modern understanding of grief and loss
Introduction to the tenets of “companioning” versus “treating”
Understanding attachment and love influences on grief
Misconceptions surrounding grief and loss
Unique influences on grief: the whys of the journey
Exploring the six central needs of mourning and the companioning helping role
Introduction to the family systems perspective
Encouraging self-compassion in mourners
Activating the use of support systems
Exploring reconciliation versus resolution
Acknowledging the transformative nature of grief
Dr. Wolfelt’s bereavement caregiving philosophy is based on what he has termed “companioning”. All of the practical topics covered in this course will be viewed through the companioning lens, and the companioning tenets will be introduced and explored. Graduates of this comprehensive seminar will return home with a multitude of newly refined skills and abilities. This is a very popular seminar, so early application is a must!
Participants will receive a copy of Dr. Wolfelt’s book Companioning the Bereaved: A Soulful Guide for Caregivers
