Therapeutic Ritual at the End of Life
$25.95
This webinar explores how clinicians can utilize ritual in supporting individuals who are dying or grieving a loss. These rituals include therapeutic group rituals and individual rituals, some of which can be purposely rethought and incorporated in funeral and memorial services. The program will discuss delineating the therapeutic value of ritual and then examine which rituals may be the appropriate interventive strategy, especially in situations where the dying or grieving process is especially challenging.
