Getting Lost in “The Great Pause”: Grief and Loss in the Coronavirus Pandemic

By J. Stapleton-Durham | June 22, 2020

We’re experiencing the coronavirus outbreak as one, yet we all have different coping styles. Are you focused on logistics? Struggling to stay motivated in a strangely isolated world? Are you unable to concentrate? Or confused about your sudden jumble of new roles?

In this time of unprecedented uncertainty, we must see our way through as a nation, a region, a household, and as individuals. What are we losing –– and what might we gain –– even in a time of considerable grief?

View this recording from April 30, 2020 featuring the full online presentation and Q&A with professor and counselor Tara Moyle. Ms. Moyle offers a human-centered view of the pandemic.

This presentation was facilitated by WSKG Public Media in partnership with SciPub BING.
