Vary Fischer, RN-BSN-MSEd

My Experience

Vary Fischer was first and foremost very knowledgeable concerning the program. In working with something as complicated as personal grief, there are so many facets that need further clarification. One or two disconnected threads can cause a total misunderstanding or even a slight miss that can easily have serious repercussions. This requires the facilitator to have an in-depth knowledge of the material. It also requires an almost tedious attention to detail, nothing slips through the cracks. The facilitator must also have compassion, a sense of sorrow for the suffering of others. I never felt I was facing the pain alone. The facilitator must exhibit patience. Grief unravels in bits and pieces, sometimes with great difficulty. I am sure there were times when the answer was obvious, right in front of me. Vary was always patient with me, letting me find my way. Sometimes I needed a gentle nudge in the right direction. More often than not she would pose a simple question. Her question would prompt me to consider a different perspective. From that perspective, the world would take on a whole new meaning, allowing me to consider other possibilities. It is a process of discovering your answers by learning to look at things from different viewpoints. Further, Vary Fischer is a devout Christian. I can always feel the presence of God when I am working with her. It is a reminder of the original 12 apostles. They were there to facilitate the connection to God. In the end only God can heal us. By being a devoted disciple of Christ, Vary Fischer facilitates healing using the Grief Recovery Method.

The facilitator is bright, principled, insightful, and high integrity. She was generous, patient, and kind while also encouraging me to work harder and go deeper to complete the work.
