Zackary Price*
Valdosta

Zackary Price*

Zackary Price is an ordained minister in association with the Center for Spiritual Awareness and resides in Valdosta Ga.

Parallel to his work as a CSA minister he is also a clinical chaplain and a prison counselor. As part of these occupations Zackary serves both patient and inmate demographics. As a clinical chaplain, he works with patients and clients who are currently contending with health challenges, or who are presently in the process of dying. As a prison counselor he works with inmates who are in the midst of traversing the difficult challenges of incarceration. In both cases, he helps these individuals to navigate through their experiences of suffering and/or crisis and to help them to establish a life enhancing meaning on the other side of that journey.

As part of his chaplaincy work, he also provides emotional and spiritual support to the bereaved families of the individuals to whom he ministered, in order to assist them in finding a new equilibrium following the loss of their loved one. As he has continued to expand his growing expertise within this field, Zackary recently completed his first master’s degree in Theology of Chaplaincy. He is currently preparing to begin work on his second master’s degree, which will be in mental health counseling.

Zackary was involved in a severe automobile accident at the age of 12. During this incident he had a Near-Death Experience. This was the inciting event that propelled him onto his personal journey of Self- and God realization. He teaches meditation, yoga, and various other modalities of spiritual enrichment, not only as techniques to promote wellness and inner peace, but also to assist them as they advance along their own journey toward Self- and God realization.

Zackary holds regular online CSA meditation gatherings via the CSA website on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7:00.

Private consultation and Zoom meditation instruction upon request.
