Testimonials 

What I like best about this program is that, like the Grief Support Training and the Trauma Recovery Certification training, it allows me to do my own healing. I lost my Gedo to suicide more than 20 years ago. I have and still do witness my dad's side of the family struggle with their complicated grief that resulted from my Gedo's tragic death. Because of the opportunity for my own healing in this program, I have found some peace in my dad and I's relationship. I think this is because I felt like I understood him more than i ever have before because of my knowledge on complicated grief. I also feel that because of this program i have so much more empathy for my dear Gedo. I have a new understanding of him and the decision he made to end his own life. 

Julie Mazurek,

Suicide Bereavement Support Group Facilitator, Edmonton, Alberta.

I gained a great deal of knowledge about suicide and I feel more equipped to help others deal with suicidal thoughts and also those bereaved by suicide.

I liked the art activities and the visualizations that I had to complete and I also liked the assignments that I had to do with others.
I initially felt some of the assignments were too long and complicated in that I had to submit journal entries, artwork, etc. However, going through the process of doing the assignments thoroughly, really added to my learning so, in the end, I truly appreciated the assignments.
