title: Getting started: confessions of a novice researcher.
abstract: My journey into research started at a weekend seminar on dealing with loss and grief. In my clinical work, I assess a group of cross cultural workers who are missionaries in various countries and on return from their placement, they present with re-entry adjustment often involving multiple issues of loss and grief. As I read about the topic, I realised there was little to guide the general practitioner to assess and manage these issues.
