I offer educational enrichment, guidance and direction for health care organizations, congregations, clinical teams, and volunteer groups, working toward goals of building spiritual care capacity, deepening multicultural sensitivity, and infusing or reclaiming a sense of sacred purpose rooted in Jewish values.
As a respectful, compassionate listener, I offer skillful facilitation, fostering helpful reflection, insights and an expanded sense of possibility. I bring a collaborative approach to consultations. My presentation style is interactive, weaving in strengths-based questions along with Jewish wisdom and inspiration from other sources tailored to your organization’s specific needs and learning/growth objectives.
There’s more about my background here.
I am available for in-person and remote support.
