Abstract

Using clinical and literary examples, Dennis explores what makes endings with traumatized patients potentially so problematic and painful. She emphasizes how guilt can impede the capacity to mourn and the complexity of what needs to be borne as part of the grieving process that is required to allow a separation and acknowledgement of the realities of life, including limits of time.
