Dr. Joshua Black is one of the world's
leading academic experts on dreams in
bereavement, which are known as grief
dreams. He has focused all of his MA and
PhD research (in psychology) on
investigating grief dreams and continuing
bonds from many types of loss (including
prenatal loss and pet loss). Most of his
academic research and publications have
specifically been on dreaming of the
deceased.
Due to the lack of academic research in
this field, Dr. Black has focused his efforts
on raising awareness on grief dreams
through developing a grief dreams
website (www.griefdreams.ca), online
courses, consulting business, hosting the
Grief Dreams Podcast, running several
social media accounts, and doing
interviews and presentations/workshops.
