Services for healthcare professionals
Tools for more human, reflective care
Because people are more than their diagnoses
As healthcare professionals, we often feel confident supporting the physical needs of our clients - but less so when it comes to the spiritual, existential, social, or emotional dimensions of their experience.
There are good reasons for this. These aspects of care are not well supported within our healthcare systems. Time and funding are limited. Training and resources are scarce. The focus naturally gravitates toward the tangible, while the intangible - yet essential - dimensions of care are often left unmet.
These are the parts of people’s lives that don’t fit neatly into a care plan, yet they shape everything: how people cope, what they fear, how they make decisions, and what gives their life meaning.
what i offer for healthcare professionals and educators
My training and talks are designed to help you engage with these deeper layers of care in a way that is ethical, inclusive and grounded in evidence. Whether you're part of a clinical team, an educational institution or a multidisciplinary practice, this work supports you in becoming a more confident, reflective and holistic practitioner. My approach acknowledges that health and spirituality are deeply contextual - shaped by culture, history, and lived experience - and I strive to hold space that honours this diversity.

Heather So delivers excellent, evidence-based workshops that thoughtfully integrate spirituality as a core framing of occupational therapy practice, grounded in respect for each individual's lived experience. Her sessions equip clinicians with practical, person-centred resources that can be immediately applied to support meaningful, values-driven practice.
- Dr Robert Pereira
Heather equips us to open up a non-threatening space to explore spirituality with our clients - an often neglected and undertrained area of OT practice.
- Vanessa
Spirituality is a vital and fundamental part of life, and it's deeply meaningful to have it recognised and supported in healthcare, especially as patients often turn to it most during these times. Thank you Heather for your valuable work.
