It will compare the outcomes, adherence, and working alliance in a standardized format with those in a self-tailored delivery format and investigate the effects of age, time since loss, and severityof grief at baseline as predictors. Focus groups to understand user experience and a cost-effectiveness analysis will complementthe study.
