If you think this is just another book about coping with the loss of a partner... You're in for a surprise! Based on her long-running class "Gaining Traction," grief counselor Vicki Panagotacos delivers a step-by-step program that will open your eyes to a new way of life. Panagotacos helps you think clearly about what you want -- and don't want -- as you move forward after loss. Tapping into personal stories told in her classroom, backed by research that reveals what secretly drives many of our decisions, Panagotacos gets you emotionally prepared to go after the life you deserve. So, if you have a busy calendar but little joy... if you're constantly second-guessing yourself... if the thought of another relationship makes you cringe... by the end of this book you will have the tools to: harness anxiety and deal with uncertainty; be ready to commit to experiences not previously considered; and know when to say "yes" or "no" to that new relationship.

EDITORIAL REVIEWS: Gaining Traction is an invaluable resource for anyone who has lost a life partner. I recommend it without reservation. Counselors will also find this user-friendly volume a "must-have" reference. - Janice Nadeau, PhD, FT, Psychologist, Marriage and Family Therapist

Vicki Panagotacos has an uncanny ability to tune in to her clients, which makes her one of the best grief practitioners I have known. Her caring, supportive presence has translated well into her book, Gaining Traction. - Lyn Prashant, PhD, FT, Somatic Grief Specialist

Readers will feel Vicki's understanding of their experience and be enriched by her suggestions. Excellent book for clients and for pastors, therapists and counselors. I recommend it with a full heart. - Eric Greenleaf PhD, Psychologist and Director, Milton H. Erickson Institute/SF Bay Area

Gaining Traction has been the foundation of our 2nd year partner loss program. I am thrilled that others will have the benefit of Vicki's meaningful and helpful book. - Chris Taich, MSW, LCSW, Director, Bereavement Services, Pathways Home Health and Hospice
