  • Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to Negotiate Losses and Life Transitions
    Article 12 Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to Negotiate Losses and Life Transitions Stacy Speedlin, Kevin Milligan, Shane Haberstroh, and Thelma Duffey Speedlin, Stacy, Ph.D., LPC, LCDC, is an adjunct professor at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Milligan, Kevin, M.A., LPC is a doctoral student at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Haberstroh, Shane, Ed.D., LPC is an associate professor at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Duffey, Thelma, Ph.D., LPC is department chair and full professor at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Abstract In this article, we describe the application of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) on clients coping with grief and loss. As a theoretical approach to grief counseling, we examine how ACT’s six core processes can be applied. ACT’s philosophical foundation and six core processes work effectively within the context of the grief counseling session. We suggest ACT strategies for working with clients who have experienced loss. Keywords: grief, loss, counseling, strategies for grief counseling, acceptance and commitment therapy, ACT Loss is endemic to the human condition. Individuals experience loss during expected life transitions, while other times, they face multiple, unexpected losses that can leave them devastated and isolated (Horn, Crews, & Harrawood, 2013). Clients requesting grief counseling can present with a myriad of losses, including death, divorce, loss of a job, or loss of a child through separation. Others may seek counseling due to transitional losses like moving away from home, starting a new career, or questioning the very meaning of their life choices. A client may seek counseling for depression and may likely also reveal losses pertaining to lifestyle, hopes and aspirations.

Underwood, LCSW, CGP Group Interventions for Treatment of Psychological Trauma Module 10: Group Interventions for Bereavement Following Traumatic Events ©2004 American Group Psychotherapy Association 287 ABOUT THE AUTHOR MAUREEN M. UNDERWOOD, L.C.S.W., CGP has over 30 years of experience in the field of loss and bereavement. She has extensive experience and publications in the area of crisis intervention with children related to death and trauma. She has published structured curricula in several areas related to loss and trauma in childhood, specifically parental illness and death, and suicide and is nationally recognized for her training programs on these subjects. She has provided support services to a variety of populations in the aftermath of the events of 9/11 including children, families, and first responders. Group Interventions for Treatment of Psychological Trauma Module 10: Group Interventions for Bereavement Following Traumatic Events ©2004 American Group Psychotherapy Association 288 I. INTRODUCTION Bereavement following any loss is challenging. While there is increasingly more information about the process of mourning and the tasks that are intrinsic to recovery (Worden, 1982), there is also more documentation about the myriad of problems on emotional, physical, economic and social levels that are often secondary to the process, even when it is considered to be uncomplicated (Osterweis, Solomon, & Green, 1984). When bereavement is complicated by any one of a number of factors, the possibility of an increasingly negative outcome is even greater (Raphael, 1993). Complicated bereavement is unfortunately not uncommon.

  • Treatment of Prolonged Grief Disorder in Combat Veterans NCT02283333
    Study Cover Page Official Study Title: Treatment of Prolonged Grief Disorder in Combat Veterans NCT02283333 Protocol date: August 4, 2014 Data Analytic Plan Baseline data were compared across groups using t-tests for continuous variables and chi- square tests for proportion variables to examine differences in demographic factors, pre- treatment symptom intensity (i.e., grief, depression, and PTSD), and co-variates that are particularly relevant to research with veterans (i.e., social support, time since death, and overall number of sessions completed). No differences in scores or proportionate representation were noted in terms of any demographic, baseline symptoms, or potential covariates. Next, repeated measures analysis of variance were conducted to determine the relative effectiveness of BATE-G vs. CT-G in terms of grief (i.e., ICG-R), depression (i.e., BDI-II) and PTSD (i.e., PCL-5) symptom outcomes. Although no covariation control (i.e., ANCOVA) was employed because covariates did not differ between groups. Baseline scores on primary dependent measures were included in the ANOVA model to test overall effects of time. The intent to treat (ITT) sample served as the primary analytic sample, and missing data were conservatively replaced through total sample mean substitution, which shares variance of missing data across groups and lessens likelihood of finding spuriously significant results. All analyses were repeated with the ‘per protocol’ sample, here defined as those who completed at least 5 of the 7 sessions specified in each treatment protocol. No differences in statistical significance were noted for any variable between ITT and per protocol samples, and thus the ITT sample data alone are reported.

  • An Internationally Relevant Approach to Grief Counseling
    Journal for International Counselor Education 2011 Volume 3 25 Death Education: An Internationally Relevant Approach to Grief Counseling Elizabeth A. Doughty Idaho State University Wendy J. Hoskins University of Nevada, Las Vegas In the 21st century, counselors are faced with the challenge of assessing age old issues through a modern lens. In particular, today’s counselors provide grief related services to a growing number of global citizens each with their own “individual culture.” The purpose of this article is to overview the use of an international perspective in training counselors to work with issues of grief and to highlight the importance of integrating death education into the counseling curriculum. A brief overview of adaptive grieving styles and an internationally relevant approach for bereavement counseling is presented. Suggested reference: Doughty, E. A., & Hoskins, W. J. (2011). Death education: An internationally relevant approach to grief counseling. Journal for International Counselor Education, 3, 25-38. Retrieved from http://digitalcommons.library.unlv.edu/jice Keywords: Grief Counseling Death Education Grieving Styles eath is universal. However, the experience and expression of grief is individual, with both intrapersonal and interpersonal influences. D Counselors and counselors-in-training will certainly work with clients dealing with issues of grief and loss, yet it is possible that many may never take a course that addresses current conceptualizations and strategies for working with these issues (Wass, 2004). In addition, counselors and counselors-in-training need to prepare for clients coming in with a global perspective and array of experiences affecting their perceptions of bereavement. Astramovich and Pehrsson (2009) stated that “The new face of counselor education is international counselor education, a profession devoted to training and supervising counselors around the world” (p.

  • Grief Center Hospice of Cincinnati
    The Goldstein Family Grief Center Hospice of Cincinnati Grief: What is it all about? Grief is important. It is the process by which one begins to accept the reality of the loss and adjust to life without the deceased. The loss of someone close causes stress and emotional discomfort, which can affect day-to- day living for the bereaved. Acknowledging this makes it easier to cope. Grief is the emotional response to loss. Working through grief can be a long and difficult process. It is not a process of forgetting the past, but rather a process of being able to accept the loss with less pain as time goes by. Grief is highly individualized. Each person’s response is different and unique. The time it How Do You React When Someone takes a person to work through grief varies, as does the intensity of the emotions experienced. There are no time limits on the grief process. You Love Dies? When experiencing a loss, people often wonder if they are grieving in the proper way and if the feelings they are having are normal. Many people experience one or more of the following: Questions or concerns?
