Supporting mātātahi (young people) through grief can be tough as most of us don't know how to talk about grief, let alone how to support a young loved one through it. It’s hard to know what to say or how to behave when someone dies. This is especially true for mātātahi as it may be the first time they've lost someone close to them.
... and there's no quick fix for it, no right or wrong way to grieve. The important thing for our mātātahi is to support them in figuring out what will really help them deal with grief.
In this webinar, Nic Russell, founder of Kenzie's Gift and bereaved mama, talks to child and adolescent psychotherapist, Nicola Jackson, about supporting mātātahi through grief.
We've created a grief kit for tamariki and mātātahi (young people) aged 13-24 years old.
It's called Memories are Forever, and contains lots of information and tips for getting through the pain of loss,
including space to write stuff down.
