Reviews

Understanding Loss: A guide for caring for those facing adversity is a must have for any clincian working in the field of loss and grieving... - Jude Boyland, Counselling Australia ' Understanding Loss is well worth reading as a summary of current knowledge and a synthesis of practice. What it adds is a practical approach to understanding the client and finding helpful approaches to care. The book illuminates the work of caring for a client regardless of the carer's specific clinical role, and it is certainly both academically precise and accessible. I recommend it'- Ofra Fried, Palliative care physician, Australian and New Zealand Society of Palliative Medicine


As interviewer, Sieff is a subtle and discreet weaver, drawing together the stands of her subjects' ideas. By the end of the book, the reader has the sense of how distinct professional disciplines in the field of trauma, and its healing through therapy, have many connecting threads... The book also affirms the view that psychotherapy can help and importantly, shines a light on how it does. There is clearly much still to discover but Sieff's book has an important contribution to make to our integrated, holistic understanding of trauma. - Tamsin Cottis, Attachment: New Directions in Psychotherapy and Relational Psychoanalysis Understanding Loss: A guide for caring for those facing adversity is a must have for any clincian working in the field of loss and grieving... - Jude Boyland, Counselling Australia ' Understanding Loss is well worth reading as a summary of current knowledge and a synthesis of practice.
