  • April 24, 2021
  • 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM

This training in Loss and Grief hosted by Envision Counseling is intended for mental health professionals who are interested in        exploring how North American dominant narratives on grief impact bio-psychosocial experiences of loss via clinical theories, treatment models, natural bereavement styles, and healthy loss adaptation within the context of personal insight and professional awareness. Participants learn to evaluate and conceptualize grief and loss symptoms, and design foundational supportive interventions that meet bereaved individuals where they are in their grief process.

    • Case Conceptualization and Treatment Goals
