Handbuch Kindertrauer

The book provides a practical and theoretically grounded insight into the topic of grief experienced by children and their families. Grief is broadly defined and encompasses experiences related to the death of loved ones, the experience of dying, as well as other loss situations. It takes into account the specific needs of children, adolescents, and young adults. The experienced authors describe support options within families, in institutions, and in specific grief counseling services. Practical examples or statements from those affected introduce the thematic aspects. In addition to expertise from Germany, there are also contributions from European and American authors.
