Ellie McFalls, MCHt., Advanced Grief Recovery Method Specialist

Before I took the Grief Recovery Method Program in 2009, I was a full-time hypnotherapist.  What I found was that nearly all my clients were grieving about something, and they nearly all just wished I had a magic wand.  So did I...After I read about the training at GRM, I really felt the urgency to get to the next training.  I drove 3+ hours from my home town of Greensboro, NC to Richmond, Va.  Wow, was I in for a rigorous but rewarding time!  My father had passed away in the early 90's and I thought I would complete any residue I had with that relatonship.  Little did I know that I would speak very little about my Dad during the process.  My mother dominated my homework!   My mother is still alive and I was surprised at the incompletions I had with her.  It wasn't until then that I learned the true meaning of loss - anything you wanted different, better or more, and it didn't turn out.  Golly, I had a LOT of that! So, we went to work, and over the next few days I changed my life in ways I couldn't begin to imagine.For one, I don't think I ever had been "heard" growing up. At the training, I was listened to, I was cared for, my feelings mattered here.  Nobody tried to "fix" me.  I wasn't broken, I was just grieving.I just know now that I have a freedom around my mother that I didn't have before.  My mother is still my mother, and what happened in my past still stands, but it's as if I put down that heavy backpack of burdens that I carried for a lifetime and was able to walk away with peace and a calm that I never felt before.So now, I feel I have access to that magic wand.  It doesn't come without doing the work, but the access is now possible. I facilitate the Grief Recovery Method Program in Greensboro, NC.  I also facilitate the Advanced Grief Online 1 on 1, the Individual Grief Support 1 on 1, the Grief Support Group, and Pet Loss Support Group.  I have been certified by the GRP since 2009.My website is:  http://www.masteryworksinc.com/?  My phone is 336-362-4170.
