I believe we are all grieving something(s) at any point in time. And my mission has been to care for others and empower and educate individuals to share in that caring. I am a Director of Spiritual Care at a large level 1 Trauma hospital and academic medical center. I train hospital chaplains how to more effectively care for patients, families and staff (ACPE Certified Educator). I am a Presbyterian minister whose primary vocation has been emotional support of others. I am a Spiritual Director/Companion who works with individuals who have spiritual distress due to grief and trauma. I also speak and lead workshops on self-care, grief and resiliency.
