About the author
Dolores Krieger is a nurse and educator known for co-developing Therapeutic Touch, an energy-based healing technique she introduced in the 1970s and taught to health professionals worldwide. Her books on the subject, gathered here, trace both the practical and reflective sides of the method: Accepting Your Power to Heal and Therapeutic Touch Inner Workbook set out its principles and exercises for practitioners, while A Healer's Journey to Intuitive Knowing, published by Bear & Company in 2021, turns to the healer's own inner experience during a session. Krieger frames Therapeutic Touch as a learnable skill grounded in attention and centeredness rather than a guaranteed cure, and her writing addresses nurses, bodyworkers, and other caregivers wanting a structured introduction to the practice. Across four decades of publication, her books remain a reference point for readers interested in energy healing as it is taught in clinical and teaching settings.
