“After losing my mother and siblings within a span of just seven years, I found myself overwhelmed with pain, confusion, and an aching desire to make sense of it all. My initial goal was simple — to understand the grieving process. But what I discovered through Dr. Batten’s presentations was so much more.
Dr. Batten not only spoke about grief, he lived the message of healing and restoration. His compassionate delivery, deep understanding of emotional pain, and faith-based approach created a space where I felt seen, heard, and supported. He helped me explore my grief with honesty, and through his guidance, I began to experience genuine healing.”
