Recognizing Complicated Grief

Strategies to finding relief and regaining peace

with Dr. Sid Zisook

April 10, 2012

6:30 - 8:00pm

The loss of a loved one is never an easy process and in some cases the grief can become debilitating. For these individuals, the pain of the loss stays fresh and healing does not occur. The bereaved person feels stuck; time moves forward, but the intense grief remains. This is known as “complicated grief”.
