Marie Price
Senior Lecturer in Social Work
About
Throughout my career I have always been interested in considering the impact of loss and change on individuals, families, organisations, and systems. Culminating in working with the ultimate loss that death brings, at any age, through my work in and with hospices since 1989.
Qualified in social work, counselling, couples counselling, group work and supervision I work half time at the university and the other half of my week I provide supervision to a variety of individuals and groups, such as hospices, work on end of life, palliative care and bereavement projects alongside talking to local and national groups. I also have a small private therapeutic practice where again these issues are often a thread through the work we do together.
My PhD research is focused on clinical supervision for staff working in end of life and palliative care to ensure the best outcomes for individuals and their families as well as looking at support for people working in this area who are discussing/thinking about mortality on a daily basis.
Alongside these endeavours I am also involved with the West Sussex Children鈥檚 Bereavement forum, organising Dying Matters Events and have recently, although before covid, delivered the third conference on Facing Death and Bereavement for specific groups of people.
Recently I have become co – representative for the London and South East region of the Association of Palliative Care Social Workers (APCSW).
