Facilitating Resilience and Life After Loss: Using the Twin Lenses of Two-Track Model of Bereavement (TTMB) in Clinical Work.

We shall consider this model's relevance for focussing assessment and interventions related to continuing bonds, traumatic and non-traumatic loss, and overall resilience. To do so, we shall use art, film and clinical material along with theory and research data in our meeting. This webinar is designed to engage clinicians, researches, the bereaved and those who support them, in our shared quest to facilitate resilience following loss and bereavement.

Learning Outcomes

What can participants expect to have learned after attending this webinar:

A clear understanding of the Two-Track Model of Bereavement (TTMB) and its implications for theory and practice.

A paradigm for applying the insights of the model in assessment and intervention and suggestions for deciding how to balance and when to prioritise Track I, Track II, or both tracks of the TTMB.

How to interplay between subjective and objective elements of how loss impacts the bereavement experience in "traumatic bereavement" and how to use the TTMB to assist in assessment and intervention.

Presentation of several intervention strategies and techniques and their connection to particular elements of the TTMB with the goal of fostering resilience in the bereaved.
