By combining faith and psychology, Unyong Statwick, an ordained interfaith chaplain and certified Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) educator at Providence Sacred Heart in Spokane, turned trauma in her childhood and adult life into tools to be present with patients and families in their times of trauma in hospital stays.
As a certified CPE educator—formerly called "CPE supervisor"—Unyong trains students to engage the whole of their life stories into tools to help them accompany people in health crises.
CPE is interfaith professional education for theological students, ordained clergy and laypersons.
