Grief through the eyes of children and teens

Beschreibung

Understanding children's grief can be challenging, but through the power of visual expression, it becomes more accessible and meaningful. In this insightful and compassionate book, Lynn M. Snyder-an experienced art therapist and founder of Common Ground Grief Center-offers a unique perspective on childhood bereavement. Drawing from years of experience, she combines her passion for visual learning with heartfelt stories and artwork created by grieving children and teens. These powerful images provide an intimate glimpse into their emotions, offering valuable insights for parents, caregivers, educators, and anyone seeking to support a grieving child. Through personal anecdotes and professional expertise, the author shares how children process loss and how visual expression helps them navigate their grief journey. This book serves as both a guide and a source of comfort, providing practical tools and understanding to those who want to offer meaningful support. With the wisdom of young voices at its core, it is a testament to the resilience of grieving children and the transformative power of creative expression.
