Topic 3 DQ 2 Nov 30-Dec 4, 2023 The Stroebe and Schut (2010) article, as well as the reading from Chapter 9 in your text regarding "Dual Process Model," suggests a model of bereavement that focuses on the restoration of the individual who is grieving versus a focus on loss. Describe two ways in which this model works toward the individual applying adaptive coping skills. Hello Professor Ellison and Classmates, When it comes to dual process coping it is basically a back-and-forth approach. According to Corr, Corr, & Doka, pg., 268.2019). the dual process model calls for switching back and forth between learning to cope with the loss and learning to cope through rehabilitation and repairing oneself. Through this model the bereaved is able to shift back and forth between focusing on their experience of loss and contemplating living a life without the deceased. The dual model process or DPM addresses areas of coping that other models miss the mark on. In other models it was found there was no diversity in the process, that grieving was forced, grief should be in doses, denial is not addressed and taking into account other stressors (work, bills, etc.) (Stroebe, M., Schut, pg. 3. 2010). The DPM helps the bereaved apply adaptive coping skills through its loss oriented and restoration-oriented oscillating process. From Williams (2023) we learn that the loss portion of the process focuses understanding the loss and coming to terms with it through memories, pictures, or conversations, while the restoration part is about creating distractions from the grief and being in tune with changes in life. The model that I found helpful in my process of dealing with grief but focuses mainly on the restoration is Tonkin’s ‘Growing around grief’. Tonkin’s model focuses on pushes through grief with the goal of “growing a new life” and expanding their life around the grief and not feeling guilty (Tonkin, pg., 1.1996). Although this process takes into the consideration of moving forward the DPM goes between replanning for a new life without the deceased, but also cognitively processing life before the death and being able to emotionally detach from the dead in a healthy manner. Blessings,
