A Bereavement Counseling Training: Understanding the Human Encounter with Death

Simcha Raphael, PhD

In this intensive for therapists and healthcare practitioners, Simcha Raphael, a transpersonal psychotherapist with 20 years’ experience in spiritually-oriented death awareness education, will lead us in lecture, discussion, sharing, meditation and other exercises to help us become effective counselors to the dying and their loved ones. The areas covered will include: the journey of personal grief; the psychology of death and bereavement; the development of skills in counseling the dying and bereaved; personal and cultural images of death; the differences between normal and pathological grief; and larger issues of mortality, near-death experiences and life after death. Don’t miss this opportunity to expand your comfort level and repertoire of skills in working with the dying and the bereaved.
