TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - Survivors' perspectives on a modular approach to traumatic grief treatment JO - Death studies A1 - Williams, Joah L. A1 - Rheingold, Alyssa A. A1 - McNallan, Liana J.

SP - 155 EP - 163 VL - 42 IS - 3 N2 - Understanding survivors' perspectives on treatment is important in a patient-centered approach to developing interventions for traumatic loss. Focus groups were conducted with 23 motor vehicle crash, suicide, and homicide survivors. Survivors' attitudes toward a modular treatment for traumatic loss were assessed. This study also sought to explore survivors' perspectives on the acceptability of existing evidence-based practice elements in the treatment of bereavement-related mental health problems. Qualitative analyses suggest that survivors liked a modular treatment approach and agreed that existing practice elements could be useful in addressing bereavement-related concerns. Implications for developing a modular treatment package for traumatic loss are discussed.
