Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"An intimate window into the most personal journey of Caritas Coaches as they infuse their lives and practice with Caring Science, transforming their capacity to extend the same unconditional loving kindness to their fellow spirit-filled beings. A significant contribution to advancing caritas literacy."
-Jacqueline G. Somerville, PhD, RN, FAANChief Nurse Executive, The Hospital of the University of PennsylvaniaCertified Caritas Coach"The demands on caring professionals are ever-increasing, and as a result, there is an epidemic of stress, anxiety, and burnout. The integration of the practices outlined in the Caritas Coach Education Program (CCEP) are transformational. Caritas Coaching not only shares such stories of transformation but also provides a road map of how each of us in the caring profession can care for ourselves and, by doing so, be better caregivers."
-James R. Doty, MDProfessor of Neurosurgery and Founder and DirectorCenter for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education, Stanford University School of Medicine"Sara Horton-Deutsch and Jan Anderson have created a road map for a transformational journey to a personal life and professional nursing practice that reflect the deep wisdom embodied in Caring Science. Embrace this wisdom, embark on this journey, and be the change that you want to see in nursing and healthcare."

Our journey with self and other-as partners in sharing our story and their stories about the personal and intimate spaces we find and nurture in life-is amplified in a beautiful and vibrant frequency in this work by Horton-Deutsch and Anderson. Truly a work of healing ourselves as we move forward in our practice of caring for others with the heart and mind-the most beautiful blend of artistry and science."
