At the Mental Health World Conference (MHWC 2026), this session explores the psychological impacts of grief, which are universal yet deeply personal. Topics include normal versus prolonged grief, cultural variations in mourning, and therapeutic approaches for clients experiencing loss due to suicide, pandemics, or conflict.

Notably, professionals will emphasize the importance of considering the age of grieving individuals as part of the development process that can help with coping with loss and adapting to new circumstances.
