Much of my research with my students and colleagues focuses on the attempt to reaffirm or reconstruct a world of meaning that has been challenged by loss and bereavement, especially in its more traumatic forms. This joins naturally with my long-term engagement in constructivist psychotherapy, whose goal is to help people symbolize, explore and re-negotiate the self-narratives they use to organize their experience and identities as social beings.
