This foundational online course offers a comprehensive introduction to bereavement counselling for professionals working in emotional, psychosocial, and spiritual care. Whether you are a social worker, counsellor, psychologist, pastoral caregiver, or a student in a helping profession, this course will deepen your understanding of grief and provide you with practical tools to begin supporting individuals through loss.
