Losing a Parent to Suicide: Using Lived Experiences to Inform Bereavement Counseling

Autor Marty Loy, Amy Boelk
en Limba Engleză Paperback – oct 2013
The suicide of a parent has life-long consequences; few more traumatic scenarios exist, and counselors often struggle for ways to help clients deal with its effects. Few understand the pain and life-altering effects of these tragedies better than children who have experienced the suicide of a parent. Despite this, there are few texts that incorporate and evaluate the first-person accounts of grief following a suicide while advancing a method for helping. Losing a Parent to Suicide analyzes stories of parent suicides and explores the grief and coping processes that follow, discovering the strategies, methods and modes of therapy that have empowered grieving individuals and helped them rebuild their lives.

Recenzii

"Losing a Parent to Suicide: Using Lived Experiences to Inform Bereavement Counseling, by Marty Loy and Amy Boelk, is an insightful and developmentally sound book written for mental health practitioners who support children and families following the death of a parent by suicide. In giving voice to those bereaved by parental suicide, the book is also well suited for others who may interact with the family in the days and weeks that follow, including law enforcement officers, hospital personnel, school administrators and teachers, and clergy."
— Beth Limberg, PsycCRITIQUES
"This is a marvelous contribution to the literature on losing a parent to suicide. Intended to help counselors better understand this type of loss, it offers much more to many more. By combining riveting accounts from the bereaved survivors themselves with review of contemporary scientific literature and insightful observations, this book informs not only those in different supportive capacities but also bereaved persons themselves, and scientists needing up-to-date knowledge for planning future research and intervention."
— Margaret Stroebe, professor, University of Utrecht and Groningen University, the Netherlands, and coeditor of Complicated Grief: Scientific Foundations for Health Care Professionals
"This book is a practical resource for a broad audience. Those experiencing the death of a parent by suicide will find ‘peer support on paper’ from survivors who share words of wisdom based on 6-48 years of experience. Chapters contain personal narratives mixed with reviews of theoretical and empirical literature that provide family members, friends, and professionals with insight about helping strategies that range from ‘do-nothing support’ to grief camps and therapeutic interventions."
— Carla Sofka, PhD, professor of social work, Siena College
"Loy and Boelk clearly explain and illustrate the process of trauma, loss, and recovery. I will keep their book on my shelf as a reference to come back to when I need to wonder about my clients as its richness can be useful to the understanding of all bereavements."
— Hélène Everitt, Attachment Journal
