David Kessler: How to start healing after a bereavement

About the event

This event is part of our brand new Grief Academy series. The Grief Academy will bring some of the world’s leading voices on death, dying and grief together to share their wisdom, knowledge and unrivalled expertise.

David Kessler is one of the world’s foremost experts on grief. His experience with thousands of people on the edge of life and death has taught him the secrets to living a fulfilled life, even after life’s tragedies. David co-authored On Grief and Grieving and Life Lessons with Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and in his groundbreaking new work, Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief, David journeys beyond the classic five stages to discover a sixth stage: meaning. Based on hard-earned personal experiences, as well as knowledge and wisdom earned through decades of work with the grieving, he introduces a critical sixth stage.

David will be offering students of The Grief Academy a window into his clinical practice to look at the practical and effective ways we can begin to heal after a bereavement and how we can support others with this process.
