Testimonials

Do you want to know how Logotherapy has changed people's lives?

I am grateful to you and our group of the advanced logotherapy course. Seeing myself through the lens of my logotherapy family is helping me see myself differently, with more compassion and humour. I felt seen by you. Just that, being seen for who I am, has given me so much, including the ability to move forward on a path I am not sure of, but believing in myself. Thank you so much for the work you do and for what you've given me.

The techniques and skills I have learned in the logotherapy courses have equipped me to handle any situation with greater awareness. Batya is a very passionate and compassionate teacher and human being. She is very encouraging and meets students where they are. She speaks to each person at their level of understanding. She is extremely approachable and very insightful, and is an excellent guide and teacher.

In the past six months, I have learnt a lot during the lessons of Batya and other teachers. From the very first day, I was able to use logotherapy in my work as a spiritual caregiver and counsellor. The advanced course has fed and inspired my mind.

Viktor Frankl's logotherapy is not just "another course" but a whole new paradigm of how to help people deal with their lives, their hopes and their difficulties. It requires a guide and teacher who is not only well-versed in the material but who has a deep concern for others to learn, to internalize and go out and help others in the world. Batya gives of her time, herself, her experience and her passion for logotherapy. If you are looking for an online course and teacher who runs fully interactive courses with live discussion, no need to look any further. Batya's course is what you need. I am very glad I took this course, as you know I checked around for different options throughout the world and decided on this one, and I am glad I did. The group was excellent, serious-minded people who intend to really learn and use logotherapy in their lives and work. There was smooth flow at all times. You gave the feeling that we could talk and express ourselves. You consistently conveyed a sense of caring about the people, the material, you “walked your talk” and that came through- that is important for me. You gave generously of your time offline and that gave the feeling that we were part of a “family”, “community” of sorts. Your summaries were also very helpful, you do them so well! I always looked forward to the meeting, the time together, the thinking and learning together. The atmosphere was positive, serious and supportive

LOGOTHERAPY was a serendipitous occurrence, at a time when my phase of life and the demands I faced made me feel fragmented and scattered. The idea of ‘the defiant power of the human spirit’, provided for me the badly needed adhesive to hold together the fragments. The more I get attuned to ‘Self - transcendence’ it is helping me to engage in umpteen meaningful encounters with those around in ways I never imagined.

As a long-time therapist with over forty years experience, I feel that Batya's Advanced Logotherapy course has enriched my own as well as my professional life. No matter which method I am using or which specialization I am dealing with, I am better able to help my clients find meaning in their lives, in spite of and even because of, their difficulties and life challenges.

I learned so much during my time studying with Batya and the Viktor Frankl institute. Patient and supportive, Batya was so generous in her sharing of experience, knowledge and insight. For anyone interested in gaining a deeper understanding of meaning and how it relates to human beings, I highly recommend this course.

I finally got it! I get what Logotherapy is. In the beginning, from summer, for me it was so hard to find peace in myself about the meaning in life, I could not find meaning in those terrible things that happen in this world, I had so much inner conflict. Everyday, really everyday from summer I was dealing with myself. It was very good to have those Mondays, it helped me a lot. It was really hard! Really. But now it is different! I realised that the point is not on what happened, the point is what I am going to do with it. Logotherapy fulfilled something I was lacking, I was aware of it but I didn't not knew what it was. I found peace. THANK YOU!

This course changed my life because the training is experiential at its core. The insights have become on-going dialogues with myself and my values. The most unexpected result is a more positive outlook that is a natural outcome of a changed perspective, not forced or artificial.

Never did a course help me better understand the human mind, heart or soul as this has. Thank you! Your courage, transparency and honest questioning allowed us all to see how Logotherapy applies practically to life. Batya modeled beautifully how we must apply Logotherapy to understand ourselves better and then practice it. I see here a passion and quest for learning between all of us.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude for the opportunity to learn in your program. I feel truly fortunate to have been part of your class. Honestly, I never imagined I would be able to join such a class given my limitations, yet you designed an extraordinary learning environment that motivated me to explore Logotherapy more deeply. The atmosphere of the class has provided me with a wealth of knowledge about Logotherapy. Each participant, with their unique perspectives, enriched our discussions and made the experience even more meaningful. Your guidance and the way you structured the sessions have left a lasting impact on me. Thank you once again for your generosity, dedication, and inspiration. I will carry forward the insights and motivation I gained from your class.
