Talk with a Chaplain
Stanford University Chaplains are confidential resources specifically trained to employ non-judgmental listening, support, and accompaniment. We specialize in being fully present with you in your experiences and feelings. Whatever they may be.
Chaplaincy recognizes there's more to a person than the body and mind, there's also matters of the heart.
You are welcome in your full authenticity. This is a space where you don't need to perform. You are simply invited and encouraged to show up as you are, however that might be. We are here to hold confidential space for you to be seen and heard.
Annanda Barclay, our Higher Education Chaplain Fellow will initiate for your first session. If you’d like a session with a chaplain schedule using this link.
If you prefer to meet with a chaplain of a particular spiritual/religious tradition email annanda@stanford.edu
