I welcome all who feel called to live in an ongoing dialogue with the Divine. In spiritual direction, we will create space for witnessing the movements of healing and transformation on your own spiritual path.

“Life is this simple: we are living in a world that is absolutely transparent and the divine is shining through it all the time. This is not just a nice story or a fable, it is true. ” - Thomas Merton

Spiritual Direction

Certificate In Spiritual Companionship With Practicum In Spiritual Direction, St. Thomas University

God is always walking with us, calling us, waiting for us. When we say yes, that yes takes us to new places, new beginnings, new ways of seeing. In Spiritual Direction we say yes to God's invitation. We meet, we pray, make silence, talk about life, listen deeply, notice the movements of the Spirit in our lives, talk more, listen more. It is a journey towards our true self to encounter God in a deep, intimate, and loving way.
