Navigating Grief

Grief is such a complicated, individual, and at times, isolating experience. This guide allows for a slightly different path through grief with gentle encouragement and time for self-care and reflection. A wonderful resource for anyone whose grief experience is not linear and who needs a different set of tools to navigate their healing journey. --Maria C. Monge, MD, Assistant Professor, Departments of Pediatrics and Internal Medicine In a time when so many of us are facing loss, Navigating Grief: A Guided Journal, is an easy-to-follow, comforting companion through the many aspects of grief. Full of practical and engaging activities, evidence-based suggestions, and inspiring words of wisdom, this book is like having a trusted friend, a therapist, and a grief guide by your side at all times. I was so impressed that I ordered copies for my entire team of social workers! --Barbara L. Jones, PhD, MSW, FNAP, Associate Dean for Health Affairs and Co-Director of Institute for Collaborative Health Research and Practice One of the most challenging aspects of grief is that it is universal, yet unique to each individual. There is not one specific path that helps move everyone toward peace after loss. Navigating Grief: A Guided Journal acknowledges that self-compassion, exploration, and understanding offer healing. All who face loss could benefit from Mia Roldan's personal and professional experience by utilizing the tools in this book to find their own unique roadmap to recovery, resilience, and growth. --Erin Spalding, LCSW-S, Program Director for Grief Support Center and Adjunct Assistant Professor for Grief Counseling and Grief and Loss at The University of Texas
