Trauma and Grief
Understanding the Journey of Trauma & Grief
In the lesson, Ly shares his experience both as a mental health professional and as one who has gone through his own grief and trauma work. Walking along side others through this journey can be difficult, especially for those that want to help but don't know what to do or say. Ly shares some simple tips on understanding what's going for the person in the throws of loss and how to help rather than harm.
