People can grieve not just from the death of a loved one, but from a wider arena of loss which includes divorce, moving away, missing friends and even losing a valuable or sentimental possession. This book defines unresolved grief and then explores the process of therapy. Through descriptive cases, John Gunzburg examines how people can use their own resources to resolve grief and loss. Many examples are given of how the therapist and client can use their creativity, working together to resolve grief. Options and directions for the future aim to leave the reader optimistic and with skills to realize this positive view. ""Unresolved Grief"" is written for therapists of all disciplines who are dealing with grieving clients. It promotes an effective therapy of unresolved grief though numerous case studies, clear discussion of the material and creative exercises aimed at encouraging readers to examine their oun casework.
