Life After Loss

In this guide to processing the loss of people in your life, from those you're closest with to those you simply knew, Dr. Volkan, a psychiatrist with a specialization in grief, approaches the process of losing someone from two points: "complicated" and "uncomplicated" mourning.

Sharing his own story of grieving to show the power of unresolved losses throughout these pages, the three parts of Life After Loss examine the dynamics of successful mourning, the risk factors that can influence the grieving process, and how therapy, resiliency, and creative expression can help us grieve.
