This course will provide students with essential understandings and intervention skills with individuals and families who are experiencing grief and mourning, and who are in crisis. The first half of the course will focus on understanding crisis and the discernment of it, as well as the basic principles of crisis intervention. During the second half of the course, students will learn about the dynamics and experiences of loss and grief. In addition, they will learn how to differentiate between an uncomplicated and complicated mourning process, and the basic principles of how to help another through these experiences. Prochaska & DiClemente's process of change would also be introduced. The course also provides space for the student to reflect on, process and come to terms with some of the "losses" in their own lives and how these "loses" may affect the helping process. |
