Gerry R. Cox: Supporting Grieving Children and Young People, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Supporting Grieving Children and Young People challenges common myths and misunderstandings surrounding children's and young people's experiences of loss and provides youth and childcare professionals with invaluable practical guidance.

This important text explores child development and its connection to loss, addresses coping with bereavement and highlights the impact of non-death-related losses, such as abuse, family breakdown, life course changes and social instability. Case examples, reflective prompts and practical exercises allow readers to develop positive and informed practice in their work with children and young people dealing with loss.

Human services professionals, including in social and health care, youth work, counselling, pastoral work and education will find the practical guidance in this book to be of great help when supporting children and young people on their grief journey. It complements Neil Thompson's Loss and Grief: A Guide for Human Services Professionals, also in the Practice Manuals for Busy Professionals series.
