Sponsor's own description

Death of a loved one is a difficult life experience. About 1 in 10 bereaved people are strongly affected by the loss and grieve intensely for a long time. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, more people may struggle with grief. The investigators have developed and tested a talk therapy for prolonged grief.

The investigators have developed an online grief training for clinicians. The investigators will test if clinicians benefit from the online training and if they find it helpful and engaging. The investigators will recruit 30 mental health professionals as trainees to undergo the training. The mental health professionals will complete questionnaires before and after training to determine how much they learned and how much they liked the training.
