Healing Pain: Attachment, Loss, and Grief Therapy

Healing Pain: Attachment, Loss, and Grief Therapy

by Marianne Davidsen-Nielsen (Author)

Synopsis

Feelings of loss, resulting in grief, are triggered by many situations besides the death of a loved one. Healing Pain investigates why the process of grief can be such a dramatic turning-point, and why people who undergo it are never the same as they were before. A bestseller in Scandinavia, it describes the treatment methods developed by the authors to help people find the healing power inherent in health grief and gives detailed and practical advice on how to work with normal and pathological grief in individual or group settings.

Media Reviews
Healing Pain: Attachment, Loss and Grief Therapy is written in a pragmatic manner; its content is organised in a systematic and dynamic fashion. The references are classical in nature, but the authors elucidate upon theory with excellent illustrations from their practice. The nature of attachment and loss is explored with language which professionals will find relates well to their own experience. The book's real strength is that it equips the lay person with a means for understanding grief and loss without the alienating use of obtuse pedantry.
