Episode Synopsis

Experiencing loss can be particularly challenging for children. They may struggle to comprehend and manage their emotions, and since they don’t have the same coping mechanisms as adults, it's crucial to offer them empathy, affection, and assistance. In this episode, I will guide you in establishing a secure environment where your children can openly express their feelings and patiently process their grief. Together, we will explore practical ways to manage emotions and cope with the pain of loss.Links and Resources Mentioned:Free PDF: How to Support Children Grieving LossesNo Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model  by Richard SchawrtzBook List for Children, Grief, and Emotions:My Many Colored Days  by Dr. SeussIn My Heart: A Book of Feelings  by Jo Witek and Christine RousseyThe Feelings Book  by Todd ParrWhat is Goodbye?  by Nikki GrimesBecause of Winn-Dixie  by Kate DiCamillo (you may also find the movie here)The Good-bye Book  by Todd ParrA Kid's Journey of Grief  by Susan K.
