Compassionate Reflective Listening: Pastoral Care Seminar

This 2-part seminar is for anyone who offers pastoral care. Courtney Brown is an inspiring trainer with fresh perspectives to inspire your skills and confidence.

Compassionate Reflective Listening is a heart-centered communication practice that fosters deeper connection, mutual understanding, and healing through presence, empathy, and intentional response. It’s especially powerful in pastoral care, church leadership, therapeutic settings, and personal relationships where spiritual and emotional integrity are essential.

This approach centers on being fully present to another’s experience without judgment, agenda, or the need to fix—creating sacred space for people to feel truly heard and valued.

Spiritual & Relational Benefits

For pastors, therapists and people on pastoral care teams, Compassionate Reflective Listening becomes a sacred tool to:

• Deepen trust and safety in spiritual and relational spaces

• Reduce emotional reactivity and foster grace-filled connection

• Embody the heart of Christ by offering nonjudgmental presence

• Restore unity, peace, and spiritual alignment in difficult conversations

• Enhance spiritual maturity by practicing listening as a ministry

Sincerely, 

Courtney Brown
