A Workshop for Caregivers, presented by Oakeys Funeral Service and Crematory, with Alan D. Wolfelt, Ph.D., Author, Educator, Grief Counselor. This workshop will help caregivers explore the soul-based function that grief symptoms (depression, anxiety, protest, loss of control) play in the life of the mourner. You’ll learn about the art of “companioning” versus “treating” the mourner. Anyone who cares for the bereaved will not want to miss this opportunity to learn from the highly respected authority in grief and loss, Dr. Alan Wolfelt.
