Reenacts key moments in the 18-week course of therapy with a family in which the teenage daughter's rebellious behavior masks unresolved loss across three generations. In the course of her interactions with this family Dr. McGoldrick offers guidance in the use of genograms to assess patterns of unresolved loss, in assigning homework and rituals for helping families mourn, in evaluating the impact of factors such as ethnic and gender issues on a family's ability to cope with loss, and in supplementing regular family sessions with individual or couple sessions.
