This episode is in response to a request from someone whose family has been bereaved by the death of a child.So I reached out to Dr. Martha Deiros Collado, a Clinical Psychologist who specialises in working with children and families, and who spent over a decade working with and developing services for children with life limiting and life shortening conditions.I am enormously grateful to Martha for her support with this episode in which she covers issues like:Why the language you use around death is importantThe value of creating ritualsHow to manage important dates like birthdays after the death of a childWhat to say and not say to parents after their child has diedWe hope this will be a helpful resource for bereaved parents, family members and people around the family.Support & ResourcesSue RyderWinston’s Wish – support for children who are grieving -the loss of a sibling or the loss of a parentChild Bereavement UKLullaby Trust Tommy’sSandsGingerbread – Support for single parents including those who are bereavedChild Death Helpline – helpline operated by a dedicated team of volunteers who are all bereaved parents ____Newsletter sign up How to Build a Healthy Brain* Unprocessed: What Your Diet is Doing to Your Brain* Patreon *Affiliate linksSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/strongerminds.
