Death and Dying & Counseling Loss
Death and dying can be a very hard subject to bring up and talk about with a child. The book Walking Through the Maze helps begin the conversation and can be used to encourage the child to talk about the loss of their loved one. Counseling loss is never an easy subject, especially with children, but they are affected by death and dying just like adults. Counseling loss of a child can help them walk through their maze of emotions and begin the healing journey.
To help your child better understand on how to cope with a loss of a loved one and help through the grieving process, be sure to see Walking through the Maze by Lena Goldman.
