In his first interview since son Jett's death last January, Scientologist John Travolta says that he and his family have turned to religion and intensive therapy to help them deal with the tragic loss. Travolta says that he, wife Kelly Preston and their 9-year-old daughter Ella Bleu are "working very hard every day as a family to heal" but "we have our own way of doing it, and it has been helping."

During a recent round table interview with the cast of his latest film, Old Dogs, Travolta broke his silence and while he says he struggles daily, he is thankful for the support he's received from friends, family and fans.

Kelly Preston added that the "outpouring of love from, really, worldwide has been extraordinary. It's been our friends, our family, our church. We partake in spiritual counseling pretty much daily."
