About Ethel-Anne

A Mother's Loss: A Child's LossI have lived the toll of unresolved grief.My mother had two young sons. They were killed, in front of her eyes, in a freak accident. The accident involved hand grenades.... My mother's heart was torn apart times two.The advice she was given was to have another child immediately. She did not want another child. She wanted her boys back, whole and in her arms."Have another child" translates to what we in Grief Recovery® call, a MYTH: Replace the loss...and everything will be fine.Well, everything was not fine. Hard as I tried, I could not replace my brothers. Because my mother had no idea how to work through her grief and pain, she was unable to attach to me.Though she did not deliberately withhold her love, she just did not have it to give. Her unresolved painful grief kept her away from me. Hence, I lived the toll of her unresloved grief.My mother did not have access to any type of grief support. People are always told they will never recover from the loss of a child. She did not think it was possible to heal her broken heart and find peace.I, however, know it is possible to heal and find peace.While I was not able to help my mother, I have helped myself and many others since 2000. I do this work in remembrance of her.Please allow me to help YOU make peace with the past, become present in the present, and begin to make plans for the future.I look forward to being there with you and for you as you do the work of Grief Recovery®.Most sincerely, Ethel-Anne  http://www.griefrecoverystartshere.com

My Experience

I started the program with Ethel-Anne not long after my dad passed. I had a horrible weekend, torn between Anger, Grief, tears...just inconsolable. I reached out to Ethel-Anne late that night. I am not sure anyone could have helped me through this program the way Ethel-Anne did. She is just so genuine and kind...always asking about me and my family. Checking in. Ethel-Anne helped me work through my emotions and push forward. Her patience and sincerety was so comforting. I met Ethel-Anne years ago through a networking event and reconnected within the last year or so. The GRM was wonderful and helped me - but I would be remiss if I gave GRM all the credit. My dear friend, Ethel-Anne was the best facilitator in the WORLD!!!!

My Experience

In March of this year, my Son died unexpectedly by his own hand after taking a micro-dose of psilocybin. Upon a recommendation by my Financial Advisor, The Grief Recovery Method was the only support I sought to cope with this profound loss. Working with Ethel-Anne allowed me to honestly and compassionately process the death of this wonderful young man. Through reading the Handbook, doing the homework and my weekly sessions, I was able to be fully open as I grappled with his death. Further, I felt safe and supported by the deep emotional capacity in which Ethel-Anne held the grief work as she guided me week by week. Given that I was responsible for my Son's estate including his art, sculputures, home, finances and more, The Grief Recovery method allowed me to be able to maintain a clear mind and careful composure as I facilitated the myriad details in a timely manner. My Son explored Universal Consciousness through his writing and his art, I now find myself in the position of having to curate his creative work. Today, I feel prepared to accept this responsibility with strength and clarity. Good By my Son, I will perserve and know that I have the support I need in the days to come. I suspect I will reach out to Ethel-Anne again as I uncover more of his writing, his plans and work. This healing journey will continue.

My Experience

I was suffering from many tortured symptoms grieving for my children. The symptoms included shaking, crying very often, being unable to stay still, being unable to focus. This work with Ethel-Anne and the exercises I did to complete the course remarkably relieved the frequency of many of those symptoms. I have much more functionality than I did before I began the work with Ethel-Anne. Am so grateful to her and to the Grief Recovery Program.

My Experience

I wrote a lot in the comments section for my facilitator. The same sentiments remain -please see them. In sum, I feel connected and indebted to a soul who was willing to meet me in a stormy sea. Now I see a horizon, ground again. While I still have much to build back up after a lot of loss, I was able to share and have witness. I felt the way I was able to group the SES, forgiveness and apology “content” gave me authentic expression versus victim tonality. I wanted this to be the case. My facilitator was super and careful to not let me pick up further self deprecating layers which may be easy for an Empath to sometimes pull in (work in progress to be mindful about). She showed me care to the very final minutes of the cumulative work. For ex. I wanted to apologize for not loving myself more and we neatly, professionally worked on this and I’m so glad we did. It was a quick line I was confused to add in from my end, and she was perceptive and present to know this was important. It was confused on my end and I’m truly grateful she is who she is and allowed me that extra question time-space and guidance to listen to that urge. Grateful I had this guide and that the work is what it is, planned, contained and thorough.
