Supervision Groups on Death and Chronic Illness
Death and Illness is a natural phenomenon of life and will definitely occur in the family at one time or another. But it can come peacefully as a relief or traumatically when one least expected it. How does one manage oneself when faced with these occurrences in the family?
This supervision group is for us to observe and understand how these emotional processes are managed within ourselves and our family and to help our clients manage theirs. In each session, we will first discuss a chapter from the book “Death and Chronic Illness in the Family” as an illustration on how the writer goes through their processes and then bring a case of our own for discussion. Participants to the supervision group are welcome to present a case of their own for discussion.
