Death in the Family: Adapting a Family Systems Framework to the Grief Process
摘要:
This paper presents a framework for adapting a family systems approach to the grief process. The framework places the bereaved and therapist in the larger context. The therapist builds a relationship around each family member's unique experience with death, and uses the grief timeline to facilitate timely systemic interventions. This perspective helps the therapist navigate pitfalls and remain strategically positioned to address grief sensitivity and effectively in psychotherapy.
