Bio

After many years in clinical practice and nursing leadership, Christine was struck by the significant stress evident among the healthcare team and shifted her focus to introducing mindfulness as a tool to cultivate resiliency & mitigate burnout. In her current role, she focuses on integrating mindfulness & resiliency training into the formal education of nursing students. She also teaches mindfulness to nursing & medical students and offers a variety of programs in both the academic and clinical settings.

Christine is dedicated to the support of nurses' and healthcare teams' wellbeing. She provides practical support by offering strategies to learn and incorporate sustainable, individualized self-care practices. She is always inspired by mindfulness teaching and learning through community and connection.

Outside of work, Christine enjoys keeping active (preferably by or on the ocean) while spending time with her adult daughters, pups, and family.
