Bereavement and Grief

Grief is not just about death but about any loss including academic failure and relationship breakup. Everyone deals with grief in their own way but this section offers some common strategies as well as offering an understanding of what happens when we lose something special.

  • Bereavement: losing someone special
  • Coping when your partner leaves you
  • Coping with traumatic incidents

External resources

  • Skylight is a NZ organisation that offers services to support those facing tough times of change, loss, trauma and grief
  • Check out the virtual pamphlet collection on Grief compiled by Dr Bob at the University of Chicago.
  • The Cambridge University Counselling Service provides information on Bereavement
