You might have questions

Is it therapy?

No, it is not therapy or counseling. Spiritual direction is unique in that we are specifically focusing on your life with God, using the direction space for prayer, silence, discernment & dialogue with God about your real life experiences. 

Is it confidential? 

The content of your sessions may occasionally be shared with a supervision group to support the sharpening my skills as a director, but your identity will be kept completely confidential.

How often do we meet? How long?

Sessions are typically 45-60 minutes and can happen monthly (ideal at the beginning) or less often depending on the directee's needs.

How do I start?

Navigate over to the contact page and leave a message there. I will get back to you via email. Before our first session a short intake form will be sent to you.

​

Is there a fee?

I offer a sliding scale to ensure spiritual direction is accessible for everyone. Our first session is free as it will be more introductory in nature.

Who is spiritual direction for?

For anyone who desires to deepen their faith, learn new ways to pray, or is questioning the foundations of their faith. For anyone who is sensing a calling or a new dream, or to have companionship through life changes. If you've ever hoped for a more integrated and embodied relationship with God, spiritual direction is also for you. If you don't have a faith but are curious, spiritual direction can also help you navigate and make sense of your experiences, offering a road-map for further exploration. 

What do I talk about in my session?

You get to decide, as your spiritual life touches each realm of your identity and being. I will follow your lead as you bring to the session any thoughts, emotions, sensations, & experiences (or lack thereof) in your life with God. Simply come as you are with what you have. 

What do people get out of meeting with a Spiritual Director?

You may discover new ways of being with God that were previously inaccessible to you, praying differently, relaxing into silence, or experiencing greater peace in who you are. We develop a deeper awareness in the Divine Mystery that sets us free and grounds us in larger truth even if circumstances around us are painful or difficult. We learn to connect with ourselves in the present, enabling us to be more attuned to the people & world around us. We cultivate habits of silence, listening, and tuning-in that brings clarity to what is good, true, and beautiful, and assures us we don't need to hurry or strive. We learn to accept and see the grace that is available to us in each moment.
