Description

Renowned author and educator Alan Wolfelt redefines the role of the grief counsellor in this guide for caregivers to grieving children. Providing a viable alternative to the limitations of the medical establishments model for companioning the bereaved, Wolfelt encourages counsellors and other caregivers to aspire to a more compassionate philosophy in which the child is the expert of his or her grief -- not the counsellor or caregiver. The approach outlined in the book argues against treating grief as an illness to be diagnosed and treated but rather for acknowledging it as an event that forever changes a child's worldview. By promoting careful listening and observation, this guide shows caregivers, family members, teachers, and others how to support grieving children and help them grow into healthy adults.
