Description

Regardless of the work setting counselors may find themselves in, it is inevitable that some clients will present with difficulties coping with a recent loss or traumatic experience. Particularly in the current political climate, incidences of psychological distress, including PTSD, are being diagnosed more often than before. This course will explore current theories surrounding grief, loss and trauma. Both effective and ineffective coping will be examined from a socio-cultural perspective. Students will be trained in the latest empirically validated interventions to address psychological distress surrounding these issues. (This course is for Mental Health Counseling majors only. All other students must obtain permission from the (Dean's Office) can it say WSAS Office of Graduate Studies.)
