About

Lisa Parker Hayreh

I’ve spent my career helping people navigate the messy, stressful reality of trauma—especially in the ICU, where confusion, fear, and uncertainty are constant companions. Now I’m sharing what I’ve learned to support others through both the intensity of the ICU experience and the long road that often follows.

"Lisa Parker Hayreh's book, How To Cope With The ICU: A Guide For Patients And Families, could not have been written at a better time.... Her writing reminds us as bedside practitioners that there is more to taking care of an ICU patient than just medicine. There is a whole person in the bed and a whole family at the bedside."
