Wie kann ich Trauerbegleiter werden?
How can I become a bereavement counselor?
You can become a bereavement counselor through specific training as an additional qualification for professionals in health and social services, education, pastoral care, the police and fire department, etc. The specialist course in bereavement support enables people with training in theology, counseling or therapy to work independently. Basic courses are offered for volunteers and family members. However, grief counseling in the sense of end-of-life care is also usually part of the training in courses such as geriatric care, pastoral care or nursing.
