Ethics Compliance Crusher 2026 – Erie

Courtney Schulnick, J.D., is a mindfulness instructor and litigator. In an effort to better manage her anxiety and the stressors associated with litigation and life in general, she enrolled in the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Program offered at the Center for Mindfulness at Jefferson in Philadelphia, PA. Courtney noticed the ways in which the practice of mindfulness increasingly enriched her life on both a professional and personal level. A desire to deepen her own practice and share the gift of mindfulness with others encouraged her to complete the mindfulness teaching program at Jefferson, where she now teaches the MBSR program and graduate-level courses. She pursues her passion of helping people by teaching mindfulness so that they, too, can live more fully in the present moment and achieve greater balance, vitality and health. Perhaps her greatest teachers of all time are her husband, and three young boys, with whom she enjoys spending time and exploring their new hometown of Haddonfield, New Jersey.
