The landscape of modern grief theory has changed significantly over the last 50 years. However, despite this evolution, many clinicians are only familiar with the stage-based models that were the early foundations of grief theory. In this session, we will explore the most prominent grief theories to have emerged from the fields of psychology and thanatology. Beginning with Freud and working through the significant paradigm shift in grief theory that took place in the late 1990s and early 2000s, this program will introduce applications of the most current evidenced-based models of grief to clinical practice.
