About the Workshop

Prolonged Grief Disorder Therapy (previously called complicated grief therapy, or CGT) is a short-term therapy that uses methods from a range of evidence-based psychotherapies to facilitate adaptation to loss, develop a solid working alliance with the client, and address any derailers that may arise during the therapy process. Dr. Katherine Shear (bio), one of the world’s foremost experts in this field, leads a half-day workshop that will introduce the seven “healing milestones” that can guide the therapeutic process and address “stuck points” with clients. She also will discuss the unique challenges posed to adaptation to loss during COVID-19.
