I am one of Phelan's students, and I wanted to publicly acknowledge everything he has helped me with. Since I was unable to attend physical classes, Phelan worked with me over the phone, Whatsapp, and email. I was close to suicide when I made contact with Phelan; although I didn't understand it, my finances were sound, my mortgage was paid up, my car paid off, and I was just in this dark, deep hole. I went to a psychiatrist, and of course, she wanted me to take pills that made me feel worse. Phelan told me that I needed to find myself spiritually and that it may or may not be through Wicca, but if I was willing to try, he was willing to work with me. Through Wicca, I found myself; through Phelan, I found a father I never had; I have a lifetime bond with this man and a family larger than I could have ever imagined!
