Death is a spiritual and psychological phenomenon that we encounter and from which we know we must suffer and recover. Why then are we so traumatized by the loss of a spouse or committed life partner?

In this illuminating new book, Paths Through Despair to Gratitude and Faith, author Anita Pernell-Arnold describes the process of grieving, outlines strategies proven most effective for successful resolutions, and provides a detailed curriculum for working with groups of persons who have lost their spouses or life partners.

Perfect for those in need of guidance through the pain of losing a loved one, for practitioners interested in a holistic approach when interacting with clients, or for churches, funeral homes, and healthcare providers wishing to establish support communities, this book lights the way.

Readers will learn to identify issues that those in the throes of grief may encounter, take note of the progress made and yet to come, and determine the next steps to be addressed.

Integrating spiritual and psychological approaches to healing, this one-of-a-kind guide will open doors for persons in mourning to accept the loss and transition, appreciate the love experienced, and to create and embrace a future of personal growth, joy, gratitude, and grace.
