Spiritual Direction
and Dream Work
for Every Season of Life
“Summoned or not, God is present.”
—Carl Jung
To summon is to “bring to the surface (a particular quality or reaction) from within oneself,” to “authoritatively or urgently call on (someone) to be present,” to “call an image to mind.”
To me, this is the calling, the summons, the way of living a life rooted in Spirit:
Living with an awareness of the mystery of the One who brought us forth into life to summon us deeper into awareness of the presence of the Holy in the everyday
Bringing to the surface what is unconsciously active and perhaps even holding us back from living abundantly
Trusting that what is being drawn forth in us to be worked with is never greater than our capacity to grow through it with the help of our Divine Guide.
If you’re someone who is seeking to uncover growth in the midst of difficulty, hoping to open to deeper awareness of where you’re being summoned, looking for (re-)connection with the Holy in the midst of living with grief, or if you’re seeking to hear the voice of Spirit while caring for others and struggling to hear clearly or even at all, I’d love to companion you on the journey and help walk you through discovering more of what Spirit is bringing forth in your life.

Ways I Offer Support:
Spiritual direction isn’t about being directed as much as having a companion and guide, someone to hold up the mirror so we can see more clearly and grow with two feet on the ground. I trust you have everything within you to heal, grow, (re)connect and thrive, in every season, and I provide companionship to clients by:
-Companioning you as you grow and develop your own innate capacity to notice and listen to the ways you’re being summoned on your spiritual path and to honor the mystery of the journey
-Provide space for you to explore the sacred in the every day and possibilities to grow into and deepen your relationship with the Sacred where you are, right here and right now
-Walk alongside you as you recover and rediscover ways to live in relationship with the Holy One, even if church or other formal religious expressions have burnt you in the past
-Be a spiritual companion to support you in seasons of loss, grief, mourning, and transition, and to help you live your own life in the midst of it all, not just survive.
-Open space for you to be in touch with the Divine Mystery when caregiving for a loved one, whether you’re caring for someone with dementia or other needs, professionally serving others, or you’re just someone who cares deeply about others’ and needs time to care for yourself
-Create space to explore ways music, images, words (poetry, journaling, etc.), and simple, accessible creative practices that can (re)connect you to yourself, grow and deepen your self-understanding, and open new pathways for Spirit to speak to and through you
