I want the structure of my paper to be like this:

Introduction:

  • Talk about what grief and loss are in general .
  • The types of grief my paper will focus on (according to research)
  • Treatment approach, grief support groups therapy
  • Introduce the treatment for grief (grief support groups, whether it is online or not)(if it is better to only focus on the not online group therapies, then it is fine)
  • Talk about how grief impacts many people.
  • Introduce the paper in general

The body:

  •  Talk about the studies (5-7) and what they did.
  • Talk about the treatment methods applied in each study.
  • Structure of the therapy
  • Results and discussion for each study
  • Limitations

Conclusion:

  • Commonality among studies
  • Effectiveness of the treatments and therapy in the studies.
  • Suggestions for further research?
