Dr. Nancy O’Reilly, Psy.D., visited Central Trust’s Springfield location in November for a seminar regarding understanding our role in helping clients through periods of grief. She is a licensed psychologist, the founder of Women Speak and has devoted her career to educating, motivating and empowering women. Dr. Nancy is a Nationally Certified Crisis Responder, and Crisis Team Leader, and a member of National Organization of Victim Assistance. She was in New York City after 9/11, in Louisiana after hurricane Katrina and in Joplin after the May 2011 tornado.
Trauma, grief and loss are a fact of life. The staff of Central Trust in St. Louis reviewed Dr. Nancy’s presentation in St. Louis on December 17, following the tragic Newtown Elementary School massacre.
