Membership Meeting
with Debi Jenkins Frankle, LMFT
"Family Grief: How You Can Help Clients Navigate Grief Tsunamis Together"
When a loved one in the family dies, all family members are grieving, and they all need support HOWEVER it is very difficult for them to be able to support each other. Each person in the family had a unique relationship with the loved one who died. Each person has their own way of grieving because developmental stages and personality are specific and unique for each person. The grieving dynamic is similar, and interventions can work for other losses as well: loss of relationship, loss of job, loss of health, etc.
Learning Objectives
In successfully completing and attending this presentation, participants will be able to:
-
Identify at least three barriers families may face while healing together.
-
Explain how unfinished business can complicate the ability for each person in the family to support each other.
-
Discuss 3 ways to address the family divides in order to bring more unity.
