Integrative and Nature-Based Mental Health Care

"Grief expressed out loud for someone we have lost, or a country or home we have lost, is in itself the greatest praise we could ever give."

I was grateful for the chance to share comments for this very moving article on pet loss by Nandini Maharaj, Ph.D. for Apartment Therapy.

My goal in grief counseling is to provide compassionate care and a supportive environment for clients experiencing the pain of loss.

This is a brief reference guide to three books I turn to as resources for bereaved clients and those supporting grieving loved ones.
