Testimonials For Helping Children With Loss
I have only briefly tried to apply these learnings as our class recently finished. The program opened my eyes to things that I had not considered. It helped reframe how I thought about certain things. The first time I read about a couple of the ideas I wasn't in agreement and so I questioned them and even after the answer was given I still wasn't sure, however by the end of the course and having read the book and done the work I was convinced. I have a new and I believe better perspective that will help me be a better teach for children and a better person overall. e.g. knowing that I don't need to "fix it" is a huge relief. Confirming things I already believe and try to practice e.g. listening with love and kindness gave me confidence and flexibility to absorb and practice new/different ideas. Of particular importance are the foundational tools: Emotional Energy Checklist and "Letter". These tools will help ensure that I stay of track with the best way to help children. Lastly, this class led me to sign up for The Grief Recovery Method course which I believe will help me help children better because I will soon be in a better place myself.

It helped me see how things other than a death can be viewed as grief and gave me some coping skills to help children with all kinds of grief.

This program has helped in various aspects of my job; furthermore, I feel this program has helped enter act with co-workers, student, and my family when it comes to grief. I learned that grief is not only a death that it also can be a divorce, move, or even a change in family.

The program allowed me to look at the way I deal with grief as well as how I talk to others about grief. I now ask students more questions about their loss and I allow them the time to speak their thoughts and concerns. I watch my wording when discussing loss with a student. I no longer say it willbe ok or it is for the better.

The timing of this course was perfect in my situation. I was asked by the counselors at my school to attend to help but then ended up loosing my mom less than a month before this class started. That added an interesting take on the course and ended up helping me through my grief.

Has gave me a better prospective of how and how not to approach the grief that my child has experienced. It has provided me an avenue to help my child and maybe others when they may talk to me about their grief. I haven't sat down with my child at this time to work through, because I want to review more of the book and what I learned, but I do feel that this is something that can assist where I didn't even know how to start.

This program has been instrumental in changing the way we view grieving children. Diane was as asset to our organization and we learned a great deal from both the curriculum and her personal knowledge.

I signed up for this training with my co-workers for two reasons. We work with children experiencing loss on a regular basis and my family has experienced an uncommon amount of loss over the last decade. I felt this may help me help my niece and daughter through their grief.
