About this product

Product Information

Grief is what we think and feel inside when we lose something or someone we value. And since loss is a normal and unavoidable part of life, our response to loss is also normal. Grief is love's conjoined twin. And if love is not an illness or diagnosis, then neither is grief. I am a grief educator and thought leader who has witnessed countless times, over the course of three decades, the profound harm done to grievers by a profession and culture that too often sees grief as disease and its symptoms as pathology, We are so uncomfortable with human suffering that we want to "treat" it away. I propose that post-traumatic stress is not a "disorder" but rather a component of normal, albeit complicated or traumatic, grief. We are able to integrate loss into our lives by calling it by its correct name-not labeling it as a disorder. This book explores this new way of drinking about PTSD and proposes a more holistic, de-pathologized model for its understanding and treatment-thus, the title Reframing PTSD as Traumatic Grief. Mourning-the outward expression of grief-is what's missing in our current understanding of PTSD. If today's approach to treating PTSD is a jigsaw puzzle, mourning is the very large and important missing piece smack-dab in the center of the picture. All who suffer significant loss grieve inside. This includes, of course, anyone affected by a traumatic event. To heal their grief, they must meet all six of what I call the central needs of mourning. While medical-model therapies do help traumatized grievers begin to meet some or many of the central needs of mourning, none attempts to meet all six. Moreover, most medical-model treatments are too short-term and, even if and when they are helping traumatized grievers meet their mourning needs, have a strong propensity for teaching or implying to traumatized grievers that something is wrong with them. They convey to people with PTSD that they are sick or disordered and need to be cured. What they need is companionship. This book offers a different approach to caring for traumatized grievers-a method I call "companioning." A form of talk-therapy, companioning sees grief as normal and necessary, the traumatized griever himself as the only expert of his unique grief experience, and the counselor (whether professional or lay) as an empathetic companion.
