Abstract: "This book brings together empirical research and theoretical thinking on hope to give practical guidance to professionals working with the bereaved. John R. Cutcliffe takes into account evidence-based practice, describing not only what we know about the role played by hope, but also how we know about it." "The text builds on the requirements of practitioners consulted in its development, identifying and examining the dynamics, principles and social processes involved in bereavement counselling and helping practitioners to understand how they can break through grief, anger and despair to inspire hope in their clients. In addition it covers the wider implications of hope-centred counselling on training and policy."
