Reconceptualizing Grief: Developmental Considerations for Counseling Clients Experiencing Loss provides counselors-in-training, practicing counselors, and counselor educators at all levels with salient information related to griefwork. Utilizing a developmental and wellness lens, it features information on development, attachment, neurobiology, and cultural identity as they relate to an individual's experiences of grief and loss.

The text is organized into four parts. The first part provides an introduction and overview of grief and loss, including common misconceptions, basic definitions of grief and loss, the evolution of grief theory, and diagnostic considerations. The second part introduces the Transcending Model of Grief and Loss (TMGL), a framework to help counselors recognize the impact of the variety of losses and grief people experience. In the third part, readers learn about applications of the TMGL model via interventions. The final part provides special considerations regarding sociocultural, identity, non-death, suicide, and lifespan-related loss factors that can help counselors recognize grief in the counseling room.

Designed to fill a gap in the curriculum, Reconceptualizing Grief is an essential and timely textbook for courses and programs in counseling at all levels.
