Grief & Bereavement Counseling
Course Code: DED9151
School: Stonebridge Associated Colleges UK
Description
"Grief is a measure of our love and independence and is the price we have to pay for loving."
The chaos of grief can be at the same time overwhelming and a refuge to retreat into. For those who are suffering there is no consolation and for those around them words prove appallingly inadequate.
Working with the bereaved deals with an important aspect of counselling. The sense of loss, intense grief and depression that follows bereavement can be almost unbearable and the need for counselling is often a desperate one.
Topics in this course include:
- Attitudes towards death
- Bereavement & the client
- What is grief - what can be done to help
- Working with children
- Grief v. depression
- Adjusting to violent death
- Exploring grief & the letting go
- Rights of the bereaved
Outcomes
On completion of your course, you will receive two qualifications:
Grief & Bereavement Counselling Diploma
Grief & Bereavement Counselling Diploma issued by Stonebridge Associated Colleges, entitling you to use the letters SAC Dip after your name.
ASET Level 3 Grief & Bereavement Counselling Award
This Course leads to an ASET Level 3 Award Certificate for successful learners. That means that it is independantly accredited at a level of learning equivalent to level 3 on the National Qualifications Framework (NFQ) for England, Wales and Northern Ireland (in which case GCSE's are at levels 1 and 2 and A Levels are at level 3).
The Award has been designed by a learning provider to meet specific learners' or employers' requirements and as such is not listed as a qualification on NQF. While the duration, content or assessment may vary from similar national qualifications, in accrediting the programme at level 3, ASET attests that its learning outcomes are at an equivalent level to a level 3 national qualification.
Assessment
After each lesson there will be a question paper, which needs to be completed and submitted to your personal tutor for marking. This method of continual assessment ensures that your personal tutor can consistently monitor your progress and provide you with assistance throughout the duration of the course.
