GriefWork for Teens is for facilitators to help grieving teens heal from their losses. The authors refer to the psychological process of coping with a significant loss as grief work. The range of behaviors, emotions and attitudes is huge. Throughout the book they use the terms normalize and New Normal to convey that everyone's grief has a unique expression and is that particular person's 'normal.'
Teens' losses, no matter what, are important and often devastating to them. They represent the disappearance of something or someone cherished. The handouts in GriefWork for Teens will engage those who grieve any type of loss (not just death) and encourage them to identify, internalize and/or verbalize personal feelings while working through the grieving process.
Five chapters guide clients through the grieving process: Getting in Touch; Telling Your Story; Self-Care; Relationships; A New Normal
