Lindsay's doctoral research at Middlesex University concerns 'the experience of humanists entering faith-based healthcare chaplaincy teams'. The title is inspired by a faith-based chaplain who described how they differ from the non-religious: 鈥淸鈥 it is like the difference between an omnivore and a vegetarian: the omnivore also eats meat, but can include the whole of the vegetarian diet.鈥 (Participant 26, Paragraph 13).
Lindsay has a Masters degree from the Netherlands at the University of Humanistic Studies (Utrecht) to provide humanist and existential counselling, coaching and pastoral care. Lindsay is accredited as a humanist pastoral carer through the UK Board of healthcare Chaplaincy (UKBHC), the Non-Religious Pastoral Support Network (NRPSN) and as a humanist funeral celebrant at Humanists UK.
