STAR offers a program that is life altering. Your donation will make a difference in the lives of adults seeking help with emotional issues.

The following are comments shared by graduates of the STAR Process:

It saved my life. It was the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me.

STAR is the most profound healing experience I’ve had so far. And I’ve been on this journey for a while now. This was the greatest gift I could have given myself. I’ve unlocked the treasures that are within me and let go of the crap that I learned in my family.

I thought it was exactly what I needed for intense work & quicker progress than I could ever achieve in the 50 minute hour in a therapist’s office.

I have done so much therapy and self help over the last 25 years that I was skeptical of how much I would learn or get out of STAR. I got so much the 1st night that I decided if that was all I got – it would be worth it!

It was difficult at times. I was worried it wouldn’t work, that I wouldn’t change. I had an amazing experience that I wouldn’t trade for anything. I learned so much I didn’t know about myself and I am ready to stand in my truth! Everyone was supportive and so much fun. Thank you to everyone!

It saved my life.

I know of no other program so rooted in reality and fact that touches your soul so deeply. STAR melds what really works with what each participant uniquely needs to move forward positively in a lasting way.

I had very high expectations but STAR exceeded them by far. The staff, participants, everything was just The Best? I feel I can now live rather than just survive and suffer in silence. It allowed me to drop down and really listen to the wisdom with in me.

I was skeptical of the whole concept of STAR until day 2. After that… what a ride! I feel empowered & adequately prepared to go forward & live my life with strength, confidence, & happiness.

It was the most love I have ever felt in one place. The staff gave me all of 200% of their time & gifts. The facets of the program were interesting, innovative & right on.

I was a highly mechanical person before STAR, with no way to break out of my own thoughts. STAR helped me get in touch with my feelings in a way I never could have imagined. I have my heart back!

My experience was beyond words. I came here very scared about falling apart. Here I fell apart and I felt all the feelings I’d shut off for so long. This was a safe lap to fall onto. I learned to tell my truth quicker and it was okay to do so. No one left me. They were still there.

As an individual who sees life in black & white, I thought STAR would be hard for me to relate to. Was I wrong from day one. You all validated who I was, and because of that I was able to trust and express myself like never before. I have found inner peace so I can live again.

    What I have been able to do to change my life would not have been possible without the love and support of Barbara and the STAR staff.

    I love the work that STAR does. It's unusual to find a source of such healing: an organization that has changed so many lives for the better.

    I'm dedicating my donation too Barbara. I know of no one who works harder to heal and grow people that this great woman. My own experience was a miracle and other than AA it was the greatest thing that I ever did for myself. In fact, I went twice. The people around Barbara are always there for the clients, have a deep sense of themselves and give so much. I will never forget Helen.

    Like so many have said, STAR saved my life and taught me who I really am. The years of healing have made my life such better quality! The memories are so vivid, even after 21 years.

    Star can be a life changing experience. Barbara and staff do a terrif job nurturing and guiding each participant in a safe and professional manner. We deserve it! Star delivers.

    What is there to say other than, it totally changed what I do for a living. STAR enhanced and changed on so many deep levels the impact of our beginnings. I am known in my field as an expert on the babies experience of birth and I owe that to STAR. It has been and continues to be life changing.

    Wow! Star was the most powerful personal growth experience of my life. It was my safe place to heal, grow and learn to trust. I felt loved and cared for. It's been 20 years since I took Star. I'm now living "desert Karma"

    There is nothing that can match the positive life changing impact of a STAR Workshop Experience.

    STAR was a life changing experience. Over 25 year later, I continue to learn using the tools shared with me at STAR. It's a gift that lasts a life time.

    STAR has had such a profound impact on my life, supporting it in a small way financially is a way I can give back to make sure it will be there for others to experience.
