Being with Dying: Training in Compassionate and Mindful End-of-Life Care
(Intermediate)
5RVKL-RDQ+DOLID[3K'
Being with those who are dying is an integral part of clinical practice, yet professionals often feel unprepared to support dying
people as they encounter the final phase of
human development. The cultivation of the
necessary mental qualities and practical skills
that allow healthcare providers to effectively
accompany dying people and their families
through the experience of a catastrophic illness and/or the dying
process requires training. Such training involves the development
of a steady, compassionate and present-centered awareness that
positions caregivers as strong, compassionate and stable advocates
for those who are suffering and dying. It also affords caregivers a
means to be enriched, and not depleted by, their care of others.
This talk explores a contemplative approach to psychosocial,
spiritual and ethical aspects of care of the dying. The main focus is
the cultivation of mindful awareness, emotional balance, equanimity and compassion around issues of death and dying. These mental
qualities and the practices that develop them assist caregivers in
providing more mindful and compassionate end-of-life care and
effective self-care that reduces secondary trauma, burn-out, and
moral distress.
Roshi Joan Halifax, PhD, is a Buddhist teacher, anthropologist,
author and social activist. She has worked with dying people since
1970. She is Founding Abbot and Head Teacher of Upaya Zen
Center and Institute in Santa Fe, New Mexico. She founded the
Ojai Foundation, The Project on Being with Dying, the Upaya
Prison Project, and the National Network of Contemplative Prison
Programs; and she is a co-founder of the Zen Peacemaker Order.
She is currently a Distinguished Visiting Scholar and Kluge Fellow at
the Library of Congress. Her various academic honors have included
a National Science Foundation Fellowship in Visual Anthropology,
appointment as an Honorary Research Fellow at Harvard University’s Peabody Museum, Rockefeller Chair at California Institute of
Integral Studies, and the Harold C. Wit Chair at Harvard Divinity
School. In addition to authoring several books and producing sound
recordings of her lectures, she has done a six-CD series for Sounds
True entitled “Being with Dying.” She is co-chair of the Lindisfarne
Fellows, and is Board member and Fellow of the Mind and Life
Institute.

David Kissane, MD
Family Focused Grief Therapy (FFGT) has
proven efficacious in ameliorating depression and distress among “at risk” bereaved
family members when a relative dies from
cancer. It fosters relational meaning for the
family and appears protective of complicated grief. It is commenced during advanced
cancer with the patient present with
their family and continued through 6-10 sessions over as many
months. To integrate this preventive model into regular practice,
routine screening of family functioning with the Family Relationships Index permits identification of “at risk” families. Barriers to
engaging families will be explored.
David Kissane, MD, is Chairman of the Psychiatry and Behavioral
Sciences Department at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center,
attending psychiatrist and also professor of psychiatry at Weill
Medical College.

On Saturday, February 7, 2009, a series
of bushfires ignited and raged across the
Australian state of Victoria. The fires killed
173 people, the highest loss of life from a
bushfire in Australian history, and injured
414 more. Christopher Hall and his colleagues at the Australian Centre for Grief
and Bereavement mobilized to assist government in providing bereavement services to those affected. In
this compelling session, he’ll offer a brief overview of the bushfire
event, his organization’s role as a government-funded specialist
bereavement service, and their interface with government, other
service providers and the bereaved. The presentation will also
touch on details related to the disaster, like the high rates of multiple family and childhood deaths and the impact of ensuing legal
and coronial processes. The clinical implications of grief work with
the survivors during the event, during the recent second anniversary of the fires and into the future will also be explored.
For the past 13 years, Christopher Hall, MA, BEd, has held the
position of Director of the Australian Centre for Grief and Bereavement, a government-funded specialist bereavement service,
which is based in Melbourne, Victoria. He is a psychologist who
has developed a specialization in the field of grief and bereavement over the past 20 years. Chris has trained many health and
education professionals in grief theory and interventions both in
Australia and internationally. He has a strong interest in child and
adolescent grief, traumatic and complex bereavement experiences
and the organisational impact of grief and loss. In 1999 he was
elected to the International Work Group on Death, Dying and
Bereavement (IWG) and currently serves as chair of the board of
the organization.

Solomon Benatar, MD
The fragility of life on this planet and the
limits of progress are increasingly becoming
apparent. However, an unrealistic sense of
entitlement to everything that modern science, technology and medicine could offer
remains pervasive, while millions of people
continue to die prematurely — often in
childbirth, childhood or early adult life from
malnutrition, easily preventable or treatable infectious diseases
and trauma. Widening disparities in health result from, inter alia,
actions reflecting exaggerations and distortions of our value
system. Prognoses for improved global health will be offered, and
potential courses of action suggested that could lead to significant
progress.
Solomon (Solly) Benatar, DSc (Med), is Emeritus Professor of
Medicine and Director of the Bioethics Centre, University of Cape
Town, South Africa; and Professor, Dalla Lana School of Public
Health, Joint Bioethics Centre, University of Toronto, Canada.

Pauline Boss, PhD
Ambiguous loss is a loss that remains
unclear. It is traumatic and complicated
because there is neither closure nor
verification. A loved one is lost physically,
disappearing without a trace, with no body
to bury. Or a person is lost psychologically due to a dementia, here but not here.
When there is ambiguous loss, traditional
www.adec.org
grief therapies are insufficient; ambiguous loss is a relational
disorder and not an individual pathology; meaning and hope can
be restored by strengthening one’s resilience for ambiguity. Presentation is based on the presenter’s two books: Ambiguous Loss
(Harvard University Press, 1999) and Loss, Trauma, and Resilience
(Norton, 2006).
Pauline Boss, PhD, is the principal theorist in the study of ambiguous loss and has summarized her work in Ambiguous Loss
(Harvard University Press, 1999) and Loss, Trauma, and Resilience
(Norton, 2006).

Introduction to Thanatology: Dying,
Death and Bereavement
)DFXOW\:LOOLDP*+R\'0LQ)7
Intended Audience: The Introduction to Thanatology Course is
intended for those new to the field of thanatology and individuals who are working as volunteers and support staff with critically
ill, dying or bereaved individuals. This course will also be helpful
for professionals (nurses, physicians, psychologists, social workers, chaplains, funeral directors, police, EMTs, etc.) who may have
little formal education in thanatology and are working with the
critically ill, dying or bereaved.
Course Description: This course gives an overview and summary
of the field of thanatology based upon the Body of Knowledge
published by ADEC. It explores the social, cultural, psychological,
legal/ethical and spiritual issues raised by illness, dying, death and
bereavement. All information is relevant to everyday life and most
specifically to those practitioners providing support to the dying
and bereaved. The course will explore the meaning of death and
examine personal attitudes and fears, in order to understand the
grieving process and basic grief support throughout the life span.
William G. Hoy, DMin, FT: As executive director of GriefConnect, William G. (Bill) Hoy has been working with the dying and
bereaved for more than 25 years. Bringing his experience as a
grief counselor, college educator, minister, and hospice professional, Dr. Hoy delivers a comprehensive view of our field “from
the trenches,” helping colleagues appreciate the rich diversity of
thanatology. He is a sought-after speaker, presenting more than
75 continuing education workshops and keynote addresses every
year across North America. Three of his books are currently in
print, and he has written more than 100 educational pamphlets,
journal articles and other brief pieces. His newsletter, GriefConnections, is read by more than 4,000 caregiving professionals and
volunteers every month. After more than 20 years of study and
practice in urban southern California, Bill moved his family and
offices to rural central Texas in 2006.
Intermediate Course: Grief Counseling
)DFXOW\%HQ:ROIH0(G/,&6:)7
Intended Audience: This course is designed for all professionals who have at least two years of experience working with the
bereaved.
Course Description: This course examines key concepts related
to the human response to loss and the facilitation of healthy bereavement. Topics include theoretical models of the grief experience, risk and resilience, developmental, cultural, family and other
mediating factors in normal, uncomplicated bereavement using
the most current research and theoretical perspectives in the field.
The course will explore specific strategies and counseling tools to
effectively counsel individuals, couples, families or groups coping
with loss.

Advanced Course: Complicated
Bereavement and Grief Therapy
)DFXOW\5REHUW$1HLPH\HU3K'
Intended Audience: Psychologists, social workers, marriage and
family therapists, licensed professional counselors, nurses, physicians, pastoral counselors, or anyone with professional training
seeking advanced skill development in bereavement intervention
with challenging cases.
Course Description: A significant percentage of individuals who
lose a loved one struggle with prolonged and debilitating grief
that merits professional intervention. The goal of this course is to
draw on contemporary models and research findings that help
distinguish between benign (or resilient) patterns of grieving and
those that are more complicated, traumatic or entail greater risk to
the bereaved person’s psychosocial adaptation, health and interpersonal relationships. The course will acquaint participants with
specific conceptual and practical tools for evaluating and intervening in such complications.
Robert A. Neimeyer, PhD, is professor and director of psychotherapy research in the Department of Psychology, University of
Memphis, editor of two respected international journals, Death

Grief After Suicide:
Walking the Journey with Survivors
Teen Grief
(Intermediate)
(Introductory)
-RKQ5-RUGDQ3K')7
David Balk, PhD
The suicide of a loved one can have a profound and sometimes
devastating impact on those left behind, called suicide survivors.
Bereavement after suicide may entail high levels of disorientation, guilt, regret, anger and trauma. Survivors may also find their
relationships with other people changed, as they struggle with
the social stigma often placed on suicide, and the social ambiguity
created in relationships with social networks after a suicide. Family
relationships may also be significantly changed by the feelings of
guilt, blame and failure that suicide may engender. Survivors may
also be at risk for elevated rates of complicated grief and future
suicidal ideation themselves. All of this makes surviving the suicide
of a loved one a potentially life-transforming ordeal that requires
a level of support that goes beyond traditional grief counseling.
This workshop will examine adolescent bereavement, grief and
mourning. The intent is to move from knowledge about adolescent responses to bereavement to application of the information.
The workshop has a four-part structure: (1) the developmental
backstory necessary for appreciating the positioning of bereavement in the lives of early, middle and later adolescents; (2)
conceptual frameworks that help our understanding of adolescent
responses to irreparable losses through deaths of family members
and friends; (3) empirical data obtained from bereaved adolescents; (4) application of workshop information to vignettes of
bereaved adolescents.
John (Jack) Jordan, PhD, FT, is a licensed psychologist in private
practice in Wellesley, MA, and Pawtucket, RI, where he specializes
in working with loss and bereavement. He was also the founder
and director (until 2007) of the Family Loss Project, a research and
clinical practice providing services for bereaved families. He has
specialized in work with survivors of suicide and other losses for
more than 30 years. As a Fellow in Thanatology from the Association for Death Education and Counseling (ADEC), Jack maintains
an active practice in grief counseling for individuals and couples.

In all families, losses and mourning are part of life: losses of cherished desires about family life and children; about work; about
romantic love. These losses can lead to intense mourning processes and depression — and also to family violence. Family therapy
can help people to accept difficulties and tragedies of life. When a
family member dies, family therapy can help people to find a way
to live with the pain and the challenges in acting around pain.
In this interactive workshop, we will work with mourning and
bereavement in families supported by a presentation, exercises,
video and cases.

What “Ought” One to Do?
(Intermediate)
Clint Moore, MDiv, PhD
Whether one works in healthcare, counseling or education;
whether one is a social worker, psychologist, nurse or professor, each of us faces situations that raise particular ethical issues
and call for an ethical response. Occasionally, these issues rise to
the level of an ethical dilemma, which involves making a choice
between conflicting values or equally unsatisfactory alternatives.
Ethics asks, “What ought one to do?’ In the context of actual
cases, it is imperative that one determines which framework best
addresses the ethical dilemma at hand without cherry-picking to
confirm one’s preconceived notions of what ‘ought’ to be done.

This presentation describes disenfranchised grief as grief that is
not openly acknowledged, socially sanctioned or publicly mourned. The presentation explores the contexts and causes of disenfranchised grief, as well as complications arising from disenfranchisement. The seminar emphasizes the cultural factors that can
disenfranchise grief. A strong emphasis of the presentation is on
interventive strategies that can enfranchise grief.

The memories, affects and representations of significant others
are central to psychological well-being in life and after death.
Intervention following loss needs to address relationship to the
deceased and meaning for the bereaved. The Two-Track Model
of Bereavement and the Dual Process model are compatible with
perspectives focusing on relationship. Assessment and intervention benefit from understanding individual, family and cultural
factors. We use clinical examples to demonstrate interventions
directed to biopsychosocial functioning, relationship to the deceased and a combination of the two. Materials include individual,
familial and cultural aspects and incorporate cognitive-behavioral,
interpersonal, psychodynamic and strategic intervention paradigms.

Clinical Intervention Strategies After
Sudden and Traumatic Death
7KHUHVH5DQGR3K'
This workshop focuses upon intervention strategies applicable
after the sudden and traumatic death of a loved one poses the
mourner with challenges stemming from the volatile mixture of
loss and trauma. The ensuing combination of grief and traumatic
stress often severely disables coping, impairs functioning and
compromises adaptation. The dynamics found in sudden death
from accident, disaster, suicide, homicide (including terrorism and
war), and acute natural causes (from medical events such as heart
attack or stroke, or from acute illness such as SARS or bacterial
meningitis) typically lead to complicated mourning, which demands vastly different treatment approaches than if the death had
been expected and natural. Drawing on cutting-edge information
from the fields of clinical psychology, thanatology and traumatology, Dr. Rando dissects the complex and often misunderstood
experience of traumatic bereavement, and provides strategies for
effective clinical intervention.

We need periodic re-inspiration to invigorate our imaginations
and souls. The great power of art is to activate, renovate and
transform. A painting, poem or cartoon is just the prod to shake
us out of the rut of ordinary perception. Even seasoned clinicians
interacting with the creative and fine arts experience antidotes
to burnout and compassion fatigue, gain insight, and reconnect
to the creativity, renewal and joy in their work. Drawing on the
wisdom of Visual-Thinking-Strategies and Internal-Family-Systems
models, participants will explore resources and techniques readily
accessible and adaptable for use in clinical and educational settings.

This workshop explores the impact of the death of a child on the
family and, more specifically, how bereaved parents continue to
parent their surviving children. Based on qualitative data, the following questions will be discussed: How do bereaved mothers and
fathers actually experience themselves as parents after the traumatic rupture of their relationship with their child? How do they
experience and interact with their surviving children? How do
bereaved parents send their surviving children back into a world
proven to be unsafe and treacherous? How do parents juggle
grieving and parenting simultaneously (the concept of bereaved
parenting)?

Music of the Soul — Composing Life
Out of Loss (Intermediate)
-R\6%HUJHU)7'0$%&&07%&
Both intrapersonally and interpersonally, music can be an intimate
mode for being in and moving through one’s mourning. Whatever
one’s musical background, workshop participants will learn simple
conversational tools for inviting another’s music connected to
a loss and its meanings. Rich music metaphors creatively transform participants’ basic knowledge and skills into an artistry for
“composing life out of loss”: rhythms of body and soul, themes
and counterthemes of life-stories, harmonies and dissonances
of healing, and final cadences. Integrated with key thanatology
research, Berger’s paradigm provides sensitive music interventions
for guiding persons in memorializing, mourning, reconstructing
meanings, and moving into life.

The response to survivors of disasters presents specific needs to
be addressed; the unique losses brought on by disasters, together
with their traumatic reactions, require specialized training and
constant performance assessment of the professionals involved in
counseling. This workshop will present results of experience with
focus on communication skills, the expected reactions of survivors,
and care for the service provider in order to prevent burnout.
