Session 31: Managing Grief

<p>The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible version of ourselves.</p> <p>This week's episode features Dr. Ajita Robinson, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Approved Clinical Supervisor. Dr. Robinson and I chatted about how therapy can be helpful in working through grief, how we can have grief reactions to lots of different changes in our lives, and why the stages of grief you may have learned about may not be the best way to help you conceptualize grief.</p> <p><strong>Resources Mentioned</strong></p> <p><a href="http://amzn.to/2zni8y3" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">The Gifts of Grief</a> (Tappouni)</p> <p><a href="http://amzn.to/2zWDqPc" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Out of the darkness</a> (Amato)</p> <p><a href= "http://www.thebeautifulmemories.com/articles/4-tasks-mourning/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Four Tasks of Mourning</a> (Worden)</p> <p> </p> <p>Where to Find Dr. Robinson</p> <p><a href="http://www.fit-counseling.com" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">fit-counseling.com</a></p> <p>Facebook: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/Friendsintransition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@Friendsintransition</a></p> <p>Twitter: <a href="http://www.twitter.com/FIT_Counseling" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">@FIT_Counseling</a></p> <p> </p> <p>If you're looking for a therapist in your area, check out the directory at <a href= "http://www.therapyforblackgirls.com/directory" target="_blank" rel="noopener">therapyforblackgirls.com/directory</a>.</p> <p>If you're a therapist and would like your information added to the directory, check out <a href= "http://www.therapyforblackgirls.com/beinglisted" target="_blank" rel="noopener">therapyforblackgirls.com/beinglisted</a>.</p> <p>If you're in the Atlanta area and would like to participate in one of Dr. Joy's therapy groups, sign up at <a href
