Elsje helped me learn why my Daddy had to die. She
also helped me learn how to live without him. (9 year old girl)
Elsje,
you have been a godsend to me. I didn’t know where to turn when I heard the news that my precious son was killed. I
honestly didn’t think that I was going to survive the pain and agony of losing him. You showed me that I could not only
survive it but find joy in life again. I owe you everything. Thank you.
I had been to see many counsellors,
psychologists and psychiatrists over the past 9 years to deal with the death of my husband. Nothing helped until I met you.
You have done more for me in the past few months than anyone has in the past 9 years. Thank you. I finally feel free.
Thank you so very much for everything and most importantly for your
prayers. I will truly miss you. Please know that I truly appreciate your help and understanding.
Professional Quotes
I worked closely with Elsje Hannah over the past year, supervising her via
co-therapy in both individual & group counselling. Of 350 graduate students I have taught, supervised & trained directly
in therapy skills over the past 15 years, I would place Elsje in the top 2%. Elsje has shown consistent attention to professional
ethics and standards. She has already amassed considerable experience as a grief & loss (bereavement)
specialist and will continue addressing quality-of –life issues with those who are dying and their families.
