The Ministerial Seminary of America, LLC was founded by Rev. Barbara S. Eberle, MA, OMC. Barbara earned her B.S. in Behavior and Social Science through the University of Maryland, University College (Magna Cum Laude - a member in good standing in the honor society of Phi Kappa Phi) and her M.A. in Family Psychology with a focus on child abuse and neglect, through Vermont College of Norwich University. Barbara is a Nondenominational Ordained Ministerial Counselor through Pathways of Light and maintains a focus on spiritual awakening. The combination of academic and spiritual training has provided Barbara with a unique sensitivity to the variety of personal, family and spiritual issues that are so common to all of us.
Having worked for many years as a child advocate with families in crisis and with abused and neglected children, Barbara became acutely aware that healing takes on a deeply spiritual nature. With a clear vision to provide an avenue for the kind of spiritual healing that promotes personal growth and development, Barbara founded BE'ing Seminars, LLC. Through the use of seminars, group classes and personal consultations, Barbara facilitated many along their path to discovering the roots of their suffering and the spiritual healing necessary to open their hearts and minds to the presence of the Spirit.
Barbara's passion has grown and has manifested in the formation of The Ministerial Seminary of America, LLC. With a strong desire to promote unity, tolerance and understanding, Barbara believes that everything you need to heal is already inside of you. Accessing inner wisdom is at the heart of all healing and coming home to your own heart provides that wisdom.
