Trauma-Informed Listener, Hershey Wier, offers compassionate support for women navigating complex grief, trauma, and major life transitions. Many women who connect with this work are living with experiences such as growing up as a motherless daughter, suicide loss, family estrangement, or divorce later in life. The work is grounded in deep personal understanding of loss and the challenges of building a life without family or strong support systems.
Her areas of understanding also include biracial identity, immigrant parent experiences, sibling abuse, adult children of alcoholics, living and working abroad, and navigating sexism and other forms of discrimination. Hershey brings experience as a crisis counselor, where she supported hundreds of people with their struggles, as well as decades of experience in education. Her writing has included publishing on multicultural issues, culture shock, emotional intelligence, and institutional discrimination. She is also an ICF certified coach supporting women in personal and professional development.
Drawing on both lived experience and professional insight, Trauma-Informed Listener offers a calm, respectful space to speak openly and be deeply heard. Through this process, women can begin to understand how trauma shapes perspective and decision-making, and gradually rediscover their strength as they move forward with dignity and hope.
