Held via Zoom
Melissa Perrin, PsyD
CEUs: 2

Acute grief is a process that unfolds over an 18 – 24 month period after a loss. We will take a look at this process and the expected trajectory of grief and how to discern when depression comes into the process. Especially important are the aspects of “thin places” and “standing by the veil” which refer to the fluid space between the physical and metaphysical realms. We will also explore the imagery used to describe experiences of the Collective Unconscious in grief.  Cognitive and existential strategies to attend to grief and depressive experiences will be presented and discussed.

* Dr. Perrin is reprising this popular presentation in response to the various losses people have been experiencing due to COVID-19.
