# Event Details - **Event Name**: Ethics in Grief Counseling: Shifting terrain, steady practice - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 11 Sep, 2026 at 09:00 am – Fri, 11 Sep, 2026 at 12:00 pm (-05:00) - **Event Description**: A training for mental health professionals to enhance self-awareness and skill around supporting grieving clients in the clinical setting.About this EventGrief counseling sits at one of the most ethically complicated intersections in clinical practice. Confidentiality can outlive the client. Your own emotions become part of the room. And the "right" answer often depends on culture, spirituality, and a client's individual relationship to loss. This training gives you a practical decision-making framework for those gray areas, grounded in professional competence, self-awareness, and cultural humility, while also digging into the parts of grief work that are evolving fast enough to catch even experienced clinicians off guard.Bring your questions. We'll bring answers to things like:Grief Tech: AI chatbots trained on deceased loved ones, digital legacy accounts, griefbots. What happens to mourning when the dead don't fully disappear?Prolonged Grief Disorder, now its own diagnosis. What does that mean for how we assess and treat?When does grief cross the line into something that warrants clinical intervention?What are the current gaps in grief care experienced by the bereaved?How do culture and spirituality reshape what "healthy" grief even looks like?Personal Loss: how do you hold space for a grieving client while you're carrying grief of your own?This is an in-person session built for real clinical practice, not just theory, but the actual dilemmas you'll face in the room.Learning Objectives:Apply a decision-making framework to ethically ambiguous grief-counseling situationsIdentify current gaps in bereavement care and clinical practiceDescribe how culture and spirituality shape assessment of "healthy" griefRecognize the clinical implications of the Prolonged Grief Disorder diagnosisPresenter: Ali Drescher, MA, LPC, Fellow in Thanatology: Death, Dying & BereavementCost per participant is just $50.00Continuing Education Credit Available: 3 NBCC credit hoursAlive Hospice has been approved by NBCC as an Approved Continuing Education Provider, ACEP No. 8043.
