"In 'Goodbye Dad', Pam Chubbuck helps both children and their caregivers shine daylight into an area that frequently and obstructively remains hidden in shadow. It is a “must read” and, more than that, a “must use” vehicle for both."
Rev. Dr. Richard M. Goldman, Ordained Interfaith Minister, Hospital Chaplain (Retired), Licensed Professional Counselor and Approved Supervisor for LPCs
"There is no more helpless and sad feeling, than watching a child go through the emotional turmoil of the death of her/his father. The child wonders; What’s going to happen to me? What do I do with all my feeling? Who is going to be there for me now? Dr. Pam Chubbuck, a world-wide respected therapist, has written the most comprehensive book to date on how to deal with the experience of losing a father. The workbook/art therapy aspect in 'Goodbye, Dad - I’ll Always Love You' is ingenious! There is no better way to help youngsters through their trauma than the combined art, writing and emotional movement processes that Dr. Chubbuck masterfully shows us in 'Goodbye Dad'.”
~ Patricia Baird Goldman LPC, NCC, NSC (National School Counselor)
"'I highly recommend Pam Chubbuck's beautiful, practical book for both children who have lost a mother, and the adults who take care of them. As a teacher, 'Goodbye Dad'... would have been very helpful as I did not feel qualified to be of much assistance when one of my students lost his mother."
~ Betsy Orlando, retired kindergarten teacher, doll maker
“Pam has created a uniquely powerful map for helping children process their pain and sorrow after losing a mother. 'Goodbye Dad'... is a wonderful asset for individuals, hospital groups, and all professionals running bereavement groups for children!”
~ Joyce Dillon, RN, MN, Health and Wellness Coach
"Pam’s newest book acts as a compassionate guide for children who have lost a dad. It comprehensively validates their feelings and provides healthy ways for them to cope with them and to move on. “Goodbye Dad”… is just as powerful for the Inner Children of adults who lost a dad many years ago, as it will help them heal the wounds of never having had this kind of support when it originally happened."
~ Phyllis Stein PhD, Research Associate Professor of Medicine, Inner Bonding Facilitator-in-Training
“As a teenager, I watched helplessly while a close friend suffered through the loss of her mother, father & grandfather, all within a one year period. Dealing with the death of a parent is difficult enough when you're an adult, but as a child it can be paralyzing experience if you do not get the help you need. I wish 'Goodbye Mom' & 'Goodbye Dad' had been available 20 years ago!”
~Theresa Bescher, Community Organizer, Mom, & Daughter
