Reconnect with what gives your life meaning.

What is a Chaplain?

Chaplains are interfaith, spiritual care providers who are trained to process what you are going through as well as how your beliefs may be challenged or your faith may be deepening. Chaplains serve people of all different faiths as well as agnostics, atheists and people who do not identify with a particular faith. In addition to a three year masters degree, Chaplains have a full year of intensive training through the Association of Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) and are nationally board certified through the Association of Professional Chaplains (APC). Chaplaincy training focuses on meeting people where they are. Chaplains do not push any religion or ideology, but instead help you discover what you particularly believe, what gives your life meaning, what your purpose in life is, and where you find belonging and connection.

Studies have shown that receiving spiritual care can help decrease anxiety, loneliness, depression, and can in turn contribute to an overall sense of well being, peace, and joy.

So, whether you’re a patient wondering what your purpose is now, caregiver at the end of your rope, a clinician fighting despair, or someone grappling with spiritual doubt or awe—we’re here for you.

Who do we serve?

  • Chaplain Connect provides individual and group sessions for anyone seeking to process the big questions in life like

    • What is the meaning of life?

    • What is the purpose of my life?‍ ‍

    • Is there anything beyond this earthly life?

    • Who or what is God?

    These questions can come up anytime, but they especially crop up when we are going through a major transition in life.

    Each of our chaplains has a masters degree and a year of clinical training to help you wrestle with these questions and discover what you gives your strength in the midst of whatever it is you are facing right now.

  • Chaplain Connect is building a diverse network of highly trained chaplains who can provide virtual spiritual care for your patients when and where they need it most. Partnering with Chaplain Connect is especially beneficial for agencies, hospitals, and healthcare organizations that:

    • Do not currently have the capacity to hire a full-time chaplain

    • Serve patients in rural, distant, home-based, or virtual care settings

    • Lack chaplain support in outpatient clinics or specialty programs

    • Need a more diverse group of chaplains to provide personalized, culturally responsive care

    Our Chaplains have a three year masters degree as well as four units of Clinical Pastoral Education, the gold standard of chaplaincy training.

    Contact us or book an appointment to learn more about our contracting options.

  • Chaplain Connect provides support for faith communities in three ways:

    1. We offer support for any faith leader in crisis.

    2. We can offer ongoing spiritual support for faith community members who are experiencing significant spiritual distress especially when faith leaders do not have the capacity to provide ongoing support.

    3. We help people in the community discover what they believe and if their beliefs match your faith community, we will refer people to your community.

  • Those of you at the frontlines know that your workday can include some of the most horrific trauma and you are impacted by this. At times the work that you do to help others may cause you to question:

    • Why do bad things happen to good people?

    • What is the point of life?

    • Where was God?

    • Am I really able to help anyone?

    • Why did I get into this profession in the first place?

    Our chaplains can serve first responders individually. Hit the book now to receive the support you need. We can also contract with your EAP program to provide chaplain support when it is needed most.

    Our chaplains bring graduate-level theological education and extensive clinical training to help you and your first responders to process what you are carrying and move toward greater clarity, connection, and peace.

What are you curious about?


Are you looking for more connection in life? Are you wondering “why me” in the midst of suffering? Are you curious about what a chaplain is? Would you like to learn how to pray with the patients you serve? Are you frustrated with the healthcare system or wondering whether hospice is right for you? Chaplain Connect has courses and videos that will help you deepen your awareness and understanding.

Videos

Every weekend we post new content for our youtube channel on topics for patients, caregivers, and clinicians. There are also videos on spiritual growth and meditation. When you watch these videos, subscribe, like, comment, and/or click on the next video you help us provide more free care to those who need it most.

Courses

We have several courses we are creating for clinicians and for anyone looking to deepen their faith. Our courses include a free intro lesson as well as options to take a deeper-dive, get insider knowledge, and improve your expertise with practice group sessions. We know that you want to learn as much as you can, but also have limited time as a clinician, patient, and caregiver, so all of our courses condense information from full day workshops, week long conferences, and semester long courses.
