Trainer
Claire Bankole is a member of the Order of the Mustard Seed with an independent training, coaching and mentoring ministry. She is also a retired medical doctor with decades of field experience and training in youth and community work. Having walked with many who carry trauma, she continues to do so as she heals and transforms the trauma she carries herself. As part of her MA studies in 2025 she completed a research dissertation exploring trauma-healing theology through the lived theologies of those who carry trauma. In 2026 completing the Spiritual Conversations course at St Beuno’s Jesuit Centre for Spirituality not only equipped her further to hold space for discerning God’s presence and action in conversations about trauma, but also enabled her to lean into the contemplative spirituality that she loves.
On a practical level she is grateful for a wealth of experience in designing and delivering accredited training in Australia and the UK. Along with her training and expertise as a coach this enables her to support participants as they integrate new information into everyday life and ministry.
