Some of the comments we received after Diane's workshop Emotional Unemployment, at Oakton Community College on March 31, 2010:

 "Great workshop.  I really appreciate Diane's sharing her story.  The exercises were wonderful to help me connect with my own emotional unemployment and offer strategies for navigating transitions in many contexts.  Has far-reaching possibilities.  I thoroughly enjoyed the day."  --K.A.

"Great ideas for exercises for myself and others.  This was fun and informative.  Thanks for sharing your story."  --Lynn Burnell

"Excellent!  Thank you for your time and for sharing your knowledge and experiences."  --Anonymous

"Great games!"  --Esperanza Salgado

 "This was wonderful!"  --Kathleen McNamara

"I underwent a short course of neurofeedback with Diane to address a phobia. Although skeptical, I was impressed with Diane's professionalism. It's obvious that she's devoted to her work and excited about the possibilities for helping others with this cutting edge technology. Before the end of our work together, I began noticing that I was happier and more engaged in day-to-day life than I had been previously. My phobia had also begun to recede. I truly believe that all these changes were due in large part to Diane's work with me. I highly recommend her.”

"I sought peak performance training while learning a long and difficult German Operatic role.
It was an enormous undertaking and the neurofeedback training helped me to gently focus and
memorize the opera and have an enjoyable performance. Diane is a gifted and thoughtful healer."

"On my way home most evenings, I drive down Wacker to Orleans so I have a good feeling every time I cruise by 333 Wacker [Grimard Wilson Office].  Seems hard to believe that I was working with you [Diane Wilson] 2 years ago!  You were such a great help to me.  It's hard to concisely convey all that you did but, really, I hope you have a sense of great accomplishment.  You helped me see things then, and I have continued to hear your voice in other areas of my life (i.e., "what does it look like?")"

"I invited Diane to present informally to our HR Networking group because I knew that she had experience in both the clinical aspects of recognizing depression and in career counseling.   

In addition I knew that we needed more than the garden-variety "breathe deeply" and "make lists" kind of stress-reducing advice since the audience was senior HR folks. Diane helped us to recognize our own patterns of reacting to stress and when we needed to redirect our thinking patterns.  She was able to facilitate deep thinking and sharing in a very short period of time. It was a good move for me to have invited her as many of the members expressed their appreciation. She always has interesting models to draw on, no matter what personal development subject we happen to be working on. She is always welcome at our group!"

Senior Human Resources Development Leader

"I just wanted to take this opportunity again to say a sincere thank you [Diane Wilson] for your excellent talk on May 15. I believe you touched many lives!  I know you inspired me.

Your stay at the end of the speech was especially helpful. We tend to watch a speaker and think, “She has it all together. She hasn’t faced my type of problems.” Thank you for your vulnerability in showing us you’ve faced challenges, too."

Eva M. Locke, Resource Specialist

"As one of Diane's former clients, I would readily recommend her.  She offers expertise in a subtle way and is objective yet supportive at the same time.  It can be difficult navigating through the issues and their inherent complexity but Diane provides tools and guidance to help an individual or a group "drill down" to the heart of the matter.  Her insights are invaluable."
