MY APPROACH TO SPIRITUAL DIRECTION: Often when we begin, or when we are on our spiritual journey, we come across an ‘intersection of uncertainty’ – not knowing which way to turn, feeling the need for meaningful guidance. My sense is spiritual direction is, by its nature, a supporting guide on our pilgrimage to knowing and growing our spiritual selves. In spiritual direction you will find yourself chaperoned by a director and guided by the Spirit of Love. There is deep listening, prayer, parables, dreamwork, enneagram and discernment in this sacred container. And, overtime, awareness of self and spirit develops; telling markers, symbols and associations announce their place, their nurturing value in your spiritual formation. Your uncertainty of which way to turn gains clarity, all the while moving you farther along on your spiritual journey. Slowly, and assuredly your meaningful relationship with God unfolds - and it is good.
SPIRITUAL BIO influenced by mother's western faith(s), father's Native American (Ojibwa) heritage, x2 daughters of asian ancestry & my longing to study world religious & spiritual pathways. Currently a Spiritual Director & rest home Chaplain.
