Being With Others When They Are in Pain: A Video Reflection on Presence
Dr. Jacob Ham on Attunement
I’m always on the lookout for ways to be with people more skillfully and artfully. Dr. Ham has some wonderful videos that break complex concepts into simple explanations that make sense to me.

My name is Kirsten. In spiritual direction, I accompany folks as they attune to the inner dimensions of life. A Trauma-Informed Wisdom Approach is grounding and spacious. Together, we anchor into presence and a familiar flow of relating.
