Ep. 5 Dr Susan Delaney on the essence of grief, prolonged Grief, resilience and hope - a podcast by Liz Gleeson, MSc Bereavement

Shapes of Grief had a lovely conversation with Dr. Susan Delaney of the Irish Hospice Foundation. Susan is the bereavement services manager there and has been instrumental in bringing awareness to Prolonged Grief (formerly complicated grief) to Ireland. In this conversation, Susan paints a very clear picture of what grief can look like, what can be involved when we go through grief and how sometimes, when our grief fails to integrate, we can go on to develop prolonged grief. Susan also talks about childhood bereavement and how children must be included in the grieving process.  If you want a 'Grief 101', this is the podcast to listen to!
