The Easy2Care program is a comprehensive, trauma-informed program that gives you practical strategies and tools that you can use the next day to improve your health and well-being.
Easy2Care truly was of great help to all of us working in health care with high-stress situations and the potential to burn out. The course work, discussion, and training reassured me that by taking care of myself, I am in a better position to provide excellent care to others.

Group Coaching
Living with persistent pain can be incredibly isolating and challenging. The journey often feels lonely, but when shared with others who truly understand, it becomes lighter and more hopeful.
I am glad that Sharna invited me to participate and I do encourage other healthcare staff to consider participation in the program in the future. I have been able to use the tools and strategies multiple times each week personally.
