[HumanSer] Suicide counselling books

[Beth Gustin, LPC]

Hi,

I am a therapist in private practice specializing in grief and loss. Back when I worked in community mental health, I ran a sudden loss group with another colleague. I will dig up the book list We used back then because there are some helpful books on there, I think you might find worth reading. One of them was called the other side of sadness.
There are others I’ll recommend but it is late here and I need to get my book list together in my brain so that I can send it to you.
Two others that come to mine if you can find them are, a grief like no other: surviving the sudden violent death of someone you love.
Bearing the unbearable.
There’s also a third good book called the grief recovery handbook
The author Therese Rando   also writes about traumatic loss.
Happy to chat with you as well if you would like.

Thanks,

Beth
