Testimonials For Joanna Bartlett
The program started very slowly which drove me nuts because I have done a lot of personal growth work. It all came together nicely with the timeline, relationship graph, emotional components, then letter.

The program provided a guided method for me to use to identify and then connect with experiences which were sources of grief and the actions to take to "defuse" their impact on me.

It gave me a new perspective: that one could heal/recover/complete grief.

This method and my facilitator presented a perspective on my loss that had not occurred to me, and gave me a systematic process to work through any relationship, but most importantly the tools to help deal with my most profound loss and grief. Thank you!

I increased my understanding of grief and loss, the way people deal with and respond to it; I gained skills to work through difficult and painful feelings so that I can let them go. I thought the homework was well-laid out and not too arduous. I liked the pace of the class and exercises. I appreciated Joanna's enthusiasm and encouragement and praise and normalizing of emotions/behaviors. I connected with others in the group and will continue to do grief recovery work with them. I am looking forward to the alumni class.

This material is deceptively simple, but very powerful. I thought I had read it all in terms of working through difficult emotional issues. But nope! It made a big difference to take the entire measure of a relationship and focus on three specific categories to address. I know I will use this approach on several other significant losses. Thank you for developing these strategies!
