Grief is a personal, unique experience for young adults after loss in their lives. The loss could be due to the death of someone close to them or it could be due to another type of loss or life transition. This presentation will explore both theoretical underpinnings of grief and loss, as well as practical ways to support bereaved college students. Attendees will learn about the different type of losses facing college students, including loss of a parent, loss of a peer, loss due to suicide, or loss due to substance abuse. This interactive presentation will explain effective modes of support along with specific activities and techniques for helping bereaved college students in both group and individual support settings.

Presenters from the Satori Group:
      Pamela Gabbay, ED.D, FT
      Andy McNiel, MA

 
Learning Objectives:
  • Define clearly the nature of traumatic stress, grief, & loss and their sequelae.
  • Explain and apply theoretical constructs and frameworks related to bereavement.
  • Identify the five Universal Realities of Grief and their role in providing support to grieving college students.
  • Describe and differentiate different types of losses that college students face including loss due to death, divorce, and abandonment.
  • Analyze treatment modalities and practice specific activities and techniques for supporting bereaved college students in group and individual support settings.
