ABSTRACT

This manuscript considers the way that several creative media-including music, videography, visual arts, literature, drama, play, and altar-making-can be utilized in assisting the multifaceted grief process of clients. In particular, attention is given to the ability of creative media to enable clients to maintain a connection to the deceased, to access and express complicated emotions, and to gain confidence in authoring anew life story in the midst of loss. doi:10.1300/J456v01n03_11
