Grief Counselling workshop

[Guest guest]

Dear Forum,

Chennai's Center for Counselling is conducting a Workshop on Living Through Loss

and Grief from 28th to 30th November 2008 (Friday to Sunday) at our office:

18 Radhakrishnan Salai 9th St.,3rd Floor, Mylapore, Chennai 600 004.

The objective of the workshop is to help counsellors to in turn help their

clients cope with loss and grief. When someone experiences loss; loss of health

(terminal illness), loss of limb (accident), loss of a loved one, etc they go

through grief. Grieving is a natural and expected process, which involves

feeling many different emotions over a period of time, all of which eventually

help the person to come to terms with the loss.

This workshop will help one to understand the expression of emotion and thought

about the loss, including sadness, anxiety, anger, loneliness, guilt, relief,

isolation, confusion, or numbness. This workshop will also help one to think

creatively about the challenges that follow loss, and to cope with concurrent

changes in one's life.

We use participatory learning techniques. Group discussion, video clips, sharing

of testimonials, games and exercises, consideration of case studies, role-plays

are some of the methodologies used.

We charge Rs.2, 500/- , this includes material, lunch and tea. Accommodation

maybe arranged for participants on request. Registrations are open.
