What is Spiritual Direction?
Spiritual direction is a contemplative practice in which we listen deeply to your life and the Spirit's movement. Each person's experience is unique. The topics you bring to the session guide the direction we take. As a spiritual director, I accompany you in your growing relationship with the transcendent through deeply listening and offering reflective questions.
Why Spiritual Direction?
There are many reasons for seeking spiritual direction, such as a desire to listen more closely to God’s calling on your life, to explore new or different spiritual practices, to deepen your prayer life, and to enter a period of discernment are few common reasons. If you want to explore meaning in your life, uncover your deepest, truest self, or become more open to the presence and movement of the sacred in your life, then spiritual direction may be for you.

Who Seeks Spiritual Direction
No particular belief is required for spiritual direction to be beneficial. People of diverse faiths and traditions, both religious and non-religious, find spiritual direction helpful. Anyone with a desire to engage life more deeply, to explore this mystery we call life, our connection with the transcendent, or our interdependence with all beings may wish to begin spiritual direction.
Finding a Spiritual Director
A good resource for finding a spiritual director is through the recommendation of friends, coworkers, family, and others you know. Other resources are the Spiritual Directors International searchable directory and directories offered by particular faith traditions, such as the Unitarian Universalist Spiritual Directors Network. Finding a spiritual director with whom you feel comfortable sharing your sacred journey is essential. Sometimes, it is helpful to have a spiritual director who shares some of the same type of life experiences as you.
