Using the Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement to Improve Your Practice
Carrie Arnold, PhD, FT, M.Ed., RSW, CCC; Alua Arthur, JD; John Cagle, PhD, MSW; Kenneth J. Doka, PhD, MDiv; moderated by Frank Sesno Holistic treatment of individuals who are terminally ill or bereaved should include the needs of the whole person. Yet the most basic of human desires, those that include intimate and sexual relationships, are frequently avoided, dismissed, or unaddressed by healthcare, social service, clergy and bereavement professionals. Patients, family caregivers, and clients can be inhibited by the deeply personal nature of intimacy and sexuality and often do not raise concerns with professionals. This program will identify barriers and suggest interventions. Now Available On Demand:
