Mary M. McCambridge: Understanding Your Grieving Heart After a Loved One's Death, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"After debunking myths about the grieving process, that it lasts only a few months, Mary M. McCambridge traces the stages of grief (shock, denial, despair, renewal), manifestations (e. g. regrets, depression, anger, workaholism) and effects on marriage, children, friendship and work relationships in Understanding Your Grieving Heart After a Loved One's Death. Even if we've seen others mourn a loss, says Mary, we may be taken by surprise at our responses to the death of an intimate, particularly the sense of being out of control that often accompanies bereavement. Grieving readers will appreciate this warm, wise guide by an experienced bereavement counselor and crime victims' rights advocate." - Publisher's Weekly"Understanding Your Grieving Heart After a Loved One's Death is an invaluable guidebook on how to offer comfort to the bereaved. Mary touches on every aspect of the aftermath of loss, from dispelling myths surrounding the grieving process to how to deal with anger and stress, to how to handle the belongings of a lost loved one and how to help one's children through the grieving process. Mary has also reviewed over 175 other books on the grieving process and categorized them by need in this clear, simple, helpful, and solace-filled reference. Understanding Your Grieving Heart After a Loved One's Death is very highly recommended for personal, professional, and community library and grief counseling collections." - Midwest Book Review"Very well done - informative, supportive.
