*虚拟的*新的悲痛研讨会
当一个人经历损失时，他们的悲伤会被强烈而矛盾的情绪所淹没。 有些人可能会感到沉浸在悲伤中，而其他人则感到麻木，远离了日常生活。 悲伤会使人难以继续完成日常工作或与他人交往。 虽然许多人认为悲伤只发生在所爱之人的死亡上，但人们可以对任何重大损失体验到悲伤的感觉--一份工作、一只心爱的宠物、一段关系，甚至因大流行病而失去的日常活动。 在这个两小时的免费在线研讨会上，你将学习在经历悲伤时应该注意的事项，并培养加强复原力和应对损失的方法。 我们将探讨常见的神话和期望，悲伤和抑郁症之间的区别，以及自我同情的重要性。 通过小组讨论、样本仪式和自我抚慰的做法，你将学习到在悲伤过程中照顾自己的实用方法。 无论你是自己悲伤，还是想支持悲伤的亲人，你都会带着对悲伤过程的更好理解和工具来帮助你度过难关。 教员：Christine Kovach，LCSW，是一名有执照的临床社会工作者，专门研究悲伤和损失。 她在安宁疗护社会工作和悲伤辅导方面有二十多年的经验。 她目前是伯克利城市学院的兼职教师，也是圣马刁市Mission Hospice的丧亲辅导员。
