Description

Life After a Partner's Suicide Attempt explores the profound impact on partners when someone attempts to take their own life. Based on in-depth interviews with those who have experienced this traumatic event, Dr. McGivern offers a unique insight into the recovery process and proposes a psychotherapeutic pathway towards healing.

This book sheds light on the often-overlooked experiences of partners, highlighting the importance of exploring personal trauma, relationship injury, and post-traumatic growth in the aftermath of a loved one's suicide attempt. Dr. McGivern's research has significant implications for psychotherapy training, research, and practice, making this book an essential resource for both general readers and practitioners.

Written with sensitivity and compassion, Life After a Partner's Suicide Attempt gives voice to those who have been silenced by their experiences. This book is a valuable contribution to the field of suicidology, providing a much-needed perspective on the complex emotional landscape that partners navigate after such an event.
