Grief is not a disorder — it’s a natural process. However, environmental stressors, trauma, and lack of support can interrupt healthy grieving and mourning. In this training-style video, Hayley explains how to create an emotionally safe space to support while helping clients move through their grief.

She also reviews the classic five stages of grief introduced by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross and explains why these stages are not linear, but fluid and individualized.

Inside this video, you’ll learn how to use:

🖤 Heart Map Grief Activity – A visual grief journey exercise that helps clients externalize and explore their emotional experience.
🎭 Grief Mask Art Therapy Exercise – An activity exploring internal grief versus the face presented to the world.
🌀 Grief Mandala Drawing – Inspired by the work of Cathy Malchiodi, this structured art therapy intervention supports reflection, containment, and transformation.
🧘 Guided Imagery & Mindfulness Tools – Techniques to regulate the nervous system during grief processing.

This video is ideal for:

• Therapists
• Grief counselors
• Art therapists
• School counselors
• Interns and pre-licensed clinicians
• Mental health professionals working with bereavement and loss

You’ll also learn:

✔ How to use grief language as psychoeducation (without imposing stages)
✔ Why art therapy supports emotional processing and the grieving process
✔ How to avoid interpreting client artwork
✔ Ways to help clients move through pain rather than avoid it

If you’re searching for grief therapy activities and interventions, art therapy for grief, or creative grief counseling activities, this video will give you tools you can use immediately in session.
