I'm Dr. Clare Biedenharn Clare with glasses and a big smile, sitting at a table. My passion is listening. With over twenty years of experience as an industrial chaplain, hospital chaplain, and a pastor, I have had plenty of opportunities to hone my skills. My study with critical care nurses in hospitals supported the idea that in both professional and personal settings intentional listening leads to deep connection. My new book, Heart to Heart: Spiritual Care Through Deep Listening, is a practical guide to listening as both an art and a practice. Over 21 years of experience: 12 years industrial chaplain in the Mississippi Delta serving a variety of businesses that manufactured everything from flooring to food distribution to oil rig assembly 7 years as a Board-Certified chaplain (BCC) serving in critical care at a hospital in post-hurricane Katrina New Orleans 2 years as Planetree patient centered care training facilitator 3 years as family support Liaison helping families with organ donation decisions 10 years in the local church pastoring 8 churches as an elder in the United Methodist Church
