“Pandemic-Induced Traumatic Grief: How Music Therapists Can Help”
As the global pandemic expanded and deaths increased, loved ones are left with traumatic grief and complicated mourning. These result from their loved ones experiencing isolated deaths, void of opportunities to say goodbye, and wrought with fear and anxiety in a very brief period of time without opportunities to prepare for the death. These traumatic deaths result in traumatic grief for loved ones. In this webinar, Dr. Russell Hilliard and Karen Shipley Leggett will discuss and review the unique needs of those grieving with traumatic grief, best-practice clinical interventions to treat this complicated mourning, and explore ways music therapists can assist in individual, family, and group bereavement sessions. Participants will earn 3 CMTEs.
