Grief and Gratitude
Description
Sri Lankan economist Sonali Deraniyagala lost her entire family to the 2004 tsunami. With grief specialist George Bonnano, she works out how her brain has been changed through her experience of coming to terms with her loss. George A. Bonanno is a Professor of Clinical Psychology and Chair of the Department of Counseling and Clinical Psychology at Columbia University's Teachers College. His research focuses on how people cope with potentially traumatic events. His studies have documented our natural resilience to these events and explored the factors that help us cope effectively; these include our repertoire of emotional reactions, especially positive emotion and laughter, personality, and the context of our lives.
