"Counting Our Losses attends to the non-death losses that we encounter on a regular basis, although we often fail to appreciate their prevalence and their import. It provides a treasure trove of insights and guidance for counselors who seek to help individuals cope with these daunting challenges."- Charles A. Corr, PhD, Vice-Chair of Suncoast Institute, the research and education affiliate of Suncoast Hospice in Clearwater, Florida "Dr. Harris has, not only through her own contributions in the this volume on loss, but also those of her carefully selected group of leading researchers and clinicians, advanced our understanding of the psychological meaning and implications of loss.This is a highly relevant work for both researchers and clinicians who focus their energies in work with individuals across all aspects of the lifespan."- Alan Leschied, PhD, CPsych, Psychologist and Professor, The University of Western Ontario "This book is a wonderful gift. It expands our perspective on the significant but too often disenfranchised losses that affect so many. This work will become a classic, broadening our understanding of grief." - Kenneth J. Doka, PhD, Professor of Gerontology, The College of New Rochelle "The issue of nonfinite loss has been ignored in the literature for a long time. Dr. Harris’ sensitive treatment of this issue will help clinicians understand the wide range of losses that affect all people. It also provides us with a roadmap to help us work more effectively with our client’s in order to help them heal." Howard R. Winokuer, PhD, The Winokuer Center for Counseling and Healing; Past President, Association for Death Education and Counseling "This beautifully written collection represents a major contribution to the theoretical and clinical literature on grief and loss. It is unique in its attention to the many unacknowledged, hidden, and silent losses that shape the course of human lives. It should be essential reading for all health care and mental health professionals." Judith Daniluk, PhD, Professor of Counselling Psychology, University of British Columbia "[This] is a volume that is practical in its purpose, sweeping in its scope, and occasionally poetic in its prose. Far from leaving the reader mired in hopelessness in response to life’s ineluctable losses, it offers a compassionate vision within which to engage them, moving from grief to growth, and from reassessment to resilience." From the Foreword by Robert Neimeyer, PhD, Professor, Department of Psychology, University of Memphis "Rare is the photographer who can adjust the lens for the widest sweep while giving equal care to the hidden, uncertain, and ignored. With Counting Our Losses, we have the lens work of editor Darcy Harris and 22 contributors, the compilation of both the wide sweep and the focused. It is all here, from the loss of a world view to a lost sense of justice, to diminished self-worth or lost relationships, this book is a summons bearing your name." Richard B. Gilbert, PhD, DMin, CT, author, speaker, resource consultant, professor, Mercy College, New York
