John Travolta said he is getting daily Scientology counselling for his grief, in his first interview since son Jett’s sudden death.
The actor, who has had to relive the January incident for an extortion trial in the Bahamas, said the family have “our own way” of trying to heal from the tragedy.
One of the highest-profile members of the church of Scientology, he is known to have turned to his faith in the aftermath of the death.
In a new interview, Travolta said the family have had almost daily religious counselling sessions.
He said: “We've been working very hard every day as a family to heal… We have our own way of doing it, and it has been helping."
"It's a tricky thing," he added. "Sometimes, something that's right for the moment is not right the next day.
“Being with people who are important to you, being with people that you love, I think that's what has primarily helped us the most. Sometimes, being alone, too."
The family has been in relative seclusion since the seizure-related death, apart from appearances in court in the Bahamas.
But he said he decided to talk about it to help promote nine-year-old daughter Ella’s first film, Old Dogs, which opens this month and also stars Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston.
The extortion case ended in a mistrial and a retrial has been ordered.
