When someone you know experiences a loss, you want to help. But it’s difficult to know what to say. Often we find ourselves avoiding the person, or fumbling about awkwardly. On June 3, Words That Work will ask Mandy Atkission, Executive Director of Trauma Intervention Programs of San Diego County, what to say, and maybe more importantly, what not to say to someone who is mourning. Mandy will share key phrases which are particularly unhelpful, but commonly used, and teach us some phrases that soothe. She’ll also explain how to be helpful without overstepping boundaries.
