Abstract

A group of recently widowed young women sought help at a hospital's psychiatric clinic. All had been in treatment elsewhere and felt they were "pressured to get on with living." This paper presents an object relations model of a bereavement group which ran for one year. The focus was on supporting patients' defenses and avoided any implications of extended grief as pathological. Of particular interest was the use of personal video tapes and photographs in the bereavement process.
