  • Compassionate Coaching's Healing Workshop provides a restorative space for clinicians. Especially for counselors who work with Hospice and Palliative care patients/families.

  • ​I was apprehensive about the "buy in" of some of my colleagues. I was delighted to see everyone fully engaged and willing to share.

    Bill, GW SMHS CLASS Center

  • I have sat through a lot 'trainings' on listening, I feel like every organization do these so employees can work together, but this was different.... Erin creating this safe space to talk and finally having Asali also listening to stories to bring it together in a song was just something else. Asali's abilities to bring it home with a song is something I think everyone should experience in any moment of anguish in their life.

  • Erin has a lovely way of making space and holding space for persons to be vulnerable and open up in amazing ways in the context of a short workshop, even with strangers who do similar work. Erin is gifted with compassion, empathy and the capacity to utilize her own vulnerability to create a healing environment.

    The Rev. Christine E. Reimers, Ph.D., Hospice Chaplain, Capital Caring Health

  • I approached Erin about this project... I had no idea of the scope she would approach it with. She is incredibly professional, thorough, dedicated, and compassionate. It was a wonderful and transformative experience.

  • I think Compassionate Coaching is a step in the right direction towards building team cohesion. I think smaller teams could benefit from this experience as a starting point to help build stronger team dynamics and communication.

I need more of this!"
