Using the Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement to Improve Your Practice

Price range: $25.95 through $135.00

Dr. Henk Schut elaborates on the Dual Process Model of coping with bereavement (DPM). The model is presented in a historical perspective. What lead to the development and building of the model? How did it develop over time and what are recent developments? It also is critically considered in terms of its weaknesses and aspects that still need further exploration and empirical underpinning. The course discusses practical applications of the DPM for clinical practice and research, including a discussion of how the DPM can be used to help those coping with grief in the midst of COVID-19.
