Consultation for Clergy & Clergy Family
Clergy and clergy family (including spouses and partners) face unique challenges.
You’re called to support your community in times of pain, loss, uncertainty and transition (as well as times of joy, uplift and celebration), even as you’re navigating anxiety, stress, sadness and pain of your own, including pastoral burnout and secondary trauma.
You’re called to be a leader, offering vision and guidance, even when you aren’t sure of the way yourself.
You’re a public figure, but you’re also a living, breathing human being.
You worry about finding a professional you can talk with who understands and values the unique role you play as a spiritual leader.
With a background as an ordained rabbi and a systemically trained counselor, I can help you on your professional and personal journey. We’ll identify your goals and work together in a supportive, professional and confidential environment.
Our work can be ongoing, or it can be on a short-term (situation focused) basis.
I offer a free 15 minute phone conversation so that you can ask questions and see if we might be a fit. Please contact me!
