It was thought for a long time that nurses who understood their work well would always remain unmoved by all this. There is a realization now, however, that they can indeed be affected by certain events, sometimes to such an extent that they become traumatized, or are mentally wounded by them.

Der Verlust eines geliebten Menschen und die Trauer um ihn ist eine sehr schmerzvolle, aber zum Leben gehorende Erfahrung. Obwohl nichts mehr wie fruher sein wird, kehren die meisten Menschen nach einer gewissen Zeit in ihren "Alltag" zuruck. Manchen Menschen gelingt dies aufgrund des starken Schmerzes leider nicht. Sie entwickeln Komplizierte Trauer. Die integrative kognitive Verhaltenstherapie hilft den betroffenen Menschen diesen starken Schmerz zu lindern, so dass sie wieder am Leben teilnehmen konnen. Welche Rolle dabei das Posttraumatische Wachstum und die Therapeutische Allianz spielen, wird in dieser Arbeit beschrieben.
