Cheryl Bundy, MAR, BCC
Cheryl Bundy, D.Min, BCC, is the Director of Spiritual Care and Hospital Chaplain at Silver Hill. Cheryl’s clinical specialties are spirituality, grief and human flourishing and she works with patients to help them discover the role of spirituality in the healing process and lifelong wellness. In this role, Cheryl serves Silver Hill patients as a compassionate listener, witness, and guide, helping each to discover, or re-discover, that which brings meaning and joy to their lives.
Cheryl began her professional career in finance in New York City before shifting to fundraising and development for mission-driven organizations. In 2009, Cheryl moved with her family to Connecticut where she attended Yale Divinity School and launched a new chapter in her life. After graduating from YDS, Cheryl completed chaplaincy training at Norwalk Hospital and worked there as a chaplain in psychiatry, intensive care, palliative care, and outpatient programs.
Cheryl is a longtime student of connection and community, understanding that loneliness may stem from missing connections with others, oneself, and with purpose in one’s life. In addition to her work at Silver Hill, she supports many local organizations and congregations in their ministries and spiritual offerings. She recently completed her doctorate in Integrated Mental Health Chaplaincy at Vanderbilt and she is proud to add that to her Master’s Degrees from Yale Divinity School and New York University and her undergraduate degree from Smith College.
