Description

Your clients aren’t just grieving their loved one - they’re grieving an old way of life, parts of themselves they feel they’ve lost, and the roles and relationships they no longer have. It’s easy for them to become stuck between their old and new lives, so how do you show them a way forward with newfound values and sense of self? This session with grief specialist Alex Mammadyarov will teach you how to help clients understand the ways in which loss has shifted their sense of self and provide you with tangible tools to aid in identity realignment. Together, you will be able to realistically take stock of what has changed for them, what must be released, what can be reclaimed, and what can be (re)built as they embark on a life that honors who they are, who they have been, and who they will become.
