Biographical Info
Lived Experience balances on two cornerstones: pastoral identity and ministry formation. Lived Experience focuses on the various clinical sites each student brings to the group. Military, hospice, hospital, and pastorates are typical placements for students. This supervisor is a current Air Force Reserve Chaplain with experience in a large trauma hospital, a small community hospital, and hospice. Lived Experience offers a “safe enough” setting for all to share their experiences as pastoral care providers. Lived Experience also offers supervisory CPE for those who have completed four units of CPE and are board-certified.
I look forward to serving you in this process.
