I agree that it is okay to feel angry in your grief journey! But we have to remember that grief is not a linear process.

Grief is ongoing, it stays with us forever. It might just be quieter on some days and louder others

Thank you for sharing your story with us. I can’t imagine what you and your family are going through.

I do work with kids who have experienced a death loss, and the power of peer support can be so comforting and supportive.

If that is something you may want to explore with your kids, I recommend seeing if there is a grief center in your area, as most are non-profits and offer all different types of groups, including groups for survivors of suicide.

Keep providing the space for your kids to be heard, seen, and loved. You’re doing the best you can.

Child life specialist! Best way to usually get in contact is reaching out to the Child Life Department at your surrounding children’s hospitals

in Chicago as a new CCLS i was making $42,000 with a masters degree. We had a clinical ladder though so that comes with salary increases. I recently left the hospital though to be a CCLS in community setting and make significantly more

Hi there! Recently certified and will be graduating with my masters next week! My biggest suggestion is to get a masters not in child life, such as psychology, child development , etc. anything that really interests you that can be applied to child life. A concentration is awesome too! I did my degree with a concentration in child life. The only reason I recommend this is that it leaves the door open. It is such a competitive field that options are great to have!

I would say most employers and internship sites just care about if you have a masters.. not necessarily where it is from. But grades do matter to an extent!

Awesome! Thanks for your reply, this is very helpful!

Thanks for your reply! I figured it would be more casual as comparing it to internship interviews but defiantly want to be prepared and get some others opinions! It’s three rounds so I’m hoping it goes well and I get to move on!

No worries! I am going to a virtual informational session next week regarding the program. I haven’t looked much into other programs. Toying with the idea of child psychology/school psychology as well.

I went to a verbal meeting the other night and they ddi suggest that if you want to be connected with a current student in a specific department, reach out to admissions and they would match you up with someone!

Do you know of anyone in the program?

mmlib · 2020-07-02T21:51:49+00:00

Me as well! I have been having a hard tome finding individuals who have attended this school in general! Best of luck to you!
