Summary |
"'Life after loss' sets out a positive approach to the quickest possible relief from the emotional pain caused by the death of someone close or the end of a marriage, the souring of a close friendship, separation from family, loss of home or income ... Drawing on his vast counseling experience, Dr. Macnab focuses on getting distressed people to actively share in the process of rehabilitation and beginning again, rather than allowing them to see loss as something inflicted upon them, something that must be endured perhaps for years. Full of real-life anecdotes from Dr. Macnab's wide experience and written in a highly readable style, 'Life after loss' will be of tremendous help to the grieving, those close to them and their counselors." -- book cover |
