Fr. Nathan is accompanied by therapist and prayer partners Karen Saliba and Kim Sharp as they discuss practical steps for finding joy in difficult times.
Karen Saliba, PsyD, MFT, is a psychoanalyst, working with couples and individuals who want to live in healthy harmony with one another, their families, and their communities. She believes that we can be healed from our Earthly life hurts by engaging in dynamic and compassionate relationships.
As a prayer partner with Father Nathan, she has learned so much about love, spirituality and how we are never alone. Her husband and two daughters support her endeavors to inspire hope for those in this life and afterwards. Her relationship to athletics and pickleball is also very close to her mind, body, and soul. https://www.karensalibatherapy.com
Kim Sharp, LMFT, DTM, is a psychotherapist working in San Pedro, California. She loves helping people connect with the deepest part of themselves, which can promote joy, peace, and relief in their lives. Functioning from a mind-body-spirit perspective, she has witnessed how when we do our own inner work, it can lead to a deeply meaningful and fun life!
Working as a prayer partner with Father Nathan, Kimberly is continually reminded of how benevolent and loving the “other side” is, and has been amazed at the creative ingenuity that is employed by heavenly helpers to support souls on their journey in the afterlife.
When Kim isn’t working with clients or assisting Father Nathan, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, working out, dancing, sailing, and singing. She also enjoys volunteering in various capacities with Toastmasters International and in her home parish of St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in San Pedro, California.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
