I am currently researching for a PhD that incorporates aspects of grief so all posts are written from a research supported perspective. If you are aware of research with an alternative or with updated information please get in touch. I welcome all comments, feedback & the sharing of knowledge. I have been volunteering and working within the world of bereavement and pre-bereavement since 1988 when I experienced my first significant death. Since then I have been bereaved many times in many ways and as a ‘thinking griever’ have tried to make sense of my own experiences through research, education and training, whilst supporting others and professionally and as a volunteer too. I am also the author of Grief Demystified: An Introduction; debunking prevailing grief and bereavement myths and providing evidential information to the bereaved and professionals.
