AB  - Bereavement counseling professionals are very rare in Nigerian schools system. Although most of
the available counselors with their general education knowledge in counseling often dive into this area to assist
students and their families successfully work through the process of bereavement and grief. However,
bereavement and grief are multifaceted human experiences that often require specialized knowledge, skills and
understanding besides the counselor’s general education experiences. In this study, therefore, focus on
increasing counselors’ understanding of bereavement counseling that would in turn serve as a baseline
resource for successful counseling with bereaved students and other clients within the Nigerian setting.
