Multidimensional Grief Therapy (MGT) is a strength-based intervention designed to carry out a range of important therapeutic tasks with bereaved children and adolescents. These tasks include (1) reducing unhelpful grief reactions (grief that keeps kids “stuck” and unable to adjust); (2) promoting adaptive grief reactions (grief that helps kids to feel and cope better after a death); (3) reducing associated symptoms of psychological distress (e.g., posttraumatic stress and depressive symptoms), and (4) helping bereaved children and adolescents to lead healthy, happy, productive lives. Consistent with its assessment-driven, flexibly tailored design, MGT is divided into a pretreatment assessment interview and an assessment feedback interview, followed by a two-phased treatment approach.
