FREE TRAINING – A Meaning-Making & IFS Approach to Grief
As grief expert Lara Krawchuk says, every therapist works with grief and loss in some way.
Grief can be due to many different experiences beyond losing a loved one, such as a serious diagnosis, the loss of a home, or a loss of what one wished they’d had.
Yet, many therapists receive little in-depth grief training.
In this free training, Lara shares how she combines meaning-making and IFS in her work with grieving clients.
Learn:
✔️How a client’s history influences their experience of loss
✔️Why living losses can be just as profound as a death
✔️How loss can affect a client’s sense of identity
✔️ How exploring what a loss means to a client can reveal deeper layers of grief
✔️ How working with parts in IFS helps clients see their grief more clearly and connect with their own inner healing
✔️How the meaning of a loss changes over the course of therapy
This unique approach to healing grief can help clients heal more deeply and incorporate the loss more fully into their lives.
