As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Gerontologist, Kirsten has had education, training, certification, and many years of experience working in the field of death, dying, loss, and bereavement. She has been trained and certified by renowned grief expert, David Kessler, is a bereavement counselor with hospice, and currently teaches about Death, Dying, and Loss at California State University, Long Beach.
Questions we will explore:
o Are there ways we can prepare ourselves for this part of our work?
o How do we recognize when we may be acting out of grief from the loss of a member or someone close to us? What are the varied ways in which we may experience or express our grief?
o What traditions and/or strategies might we explore to cope with this grief and to support each other when we lose members we have formed relationships with?
