A chapter dedicated to each of eight modules provides recommendations on how to perform intervention techniques, and includes handouts and worksheets for use in your practice.<br><br>Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), experiential, and narrative practices and strategies from both the trauma and grief fields are synthesized into one module-based approach that addresses the unique needs of your clients-providing a powerful, flexible, and individualized way to improve treatment outcomes.<br><br>Filled with the latest research and cutting-edge treatment options, this comprehensive guide will give you everything you need to help your clients heal from traumatic loss and move forward in their lives.</p>
