She received four units of Clinical Pastoral Education from an internship and residency program at Advocate and Good Samaritian hospital in 2002. She worked as a Chaplain in a level I trauma center and spent one on one time at the bedside with many patients and families.

She led support groups for families and conducted many funeral services. She completed a great deal of debriefing with staff both formally and informally.

Laura and Pam are both mothers of three small children. They have had to deal with stressors coming at them from many different directions in life. However based on Laura’s graduate training, dissertation work and experience in dealing with burned out nurses, and Pam’s hands on experience in hospital settings, both have learned valuable and practical advice for reducing stress and burnout in daily life.
