Social workers, therapists and counselors can earn continuing education credits while learning how to help grievers with “Guilt & Bereavement,” a continuing education webinar offered by Chesapeake Life Center.
Guilt is a common element in the experience of grieving persons. Yet an understanding of its components and its impact on the grief process has not been well-defined.
In this live, interactive virtual workshop, participants will take a deeper dive into an understanding of the concept of guilt, its intersection with grief, and how caring professionals can facilitate their clients making peace with this difficult emotion.
This webinar will take place from 9 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. April 23 and will be presented by Roberta Rook, licensed clinical professional counselor, and Casey Dressel, licensed clinical social worker, both with Chesapeake Life Center.
Chesapeake Life Center is authorized by the Board of Social Work Examiners in Maryland to sponsor social work continuing education learning activities and maintains full responsibility for this program. This training qualifies for 2.0 credit hours of Category 1 continuing education units.
The Maryland Board of Professional Counselors and Therapists certifies that this program meets the criteria for 2.0 credit hours of Category A continuing education for Counselors and Therapists in Maryland..
The cost is $30. Preregistration is required and can be completed online at bit.ly/GuiltandBereavement. For questions, contact 888-501-7077 or email griefinfo@hospicechesapeake.org.
