Profile: In a world where so many want to be known by their distinctives, I still hear Jesus saying that his disciples will be known by their love for one another (Jn 13:35). My life and ministry have moved across several Christian traditions and faith streams—I am here to serve anyone who calls on the name of Jesus. He prayed that his disciples might be one in his name (Jn 17:11), so I do my best to set aside any bias that might linger from any particular denomination or movement. ||~+~|| There have also been periods in my life when I described myself as “spiritual but not religious,” and I understand the feeling of being wounded by a local church. Still, I recognize that we are created for life together in fellowship and community. Along the way, I have experienced the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit and I recognize that as I have drawn near to God, he has drawn near to me (Jas 4:8). ||~+~|| Regarding spiritual practices, I am entering a third decade of recognizing the true power of what might best be called “stillness”—that combination of solitude and silence that provides a wonderful atmosphere for meeting and knowing God (Ps 46:10). Prayer in its many forms is essentially an on-going conversation with the Lord, one that I have found increasingly fruitful as I do more listening than speaking. ||~+~|| Listening—to one another and to the Holy Spirit—is at the center of my practice of spiritual direction. The areas of focus listed above are not specialties but are rather aspects of life that I have walked through myself or alongside with others close to me. Our conversation will be a safe place without judgment regardless of your circumstances, one that I will approach with compassion and respect. ||~+~|| My education includes a Master of Practical Theology from The King’s University, and I am entering the final semester of the Spiritual Direction Training Program at Truett Seminary. I look forward to helping you discern God’s presence and activity in your life.

Profile: I am a Spiritual Director offering individual or group sessions, in person or remotely. I have a 30 yr background in healthcare as an occupational therapist working with people with disabilities, serious illness/end of life, addictions, co-dependency and have an ability to integrate body mind and spirit using a wholistic view during spiritual direction. I have experience combining the 12 step recovery process with spiritual disciplines to assist you in delving deeper into your conscious contact with the God of your understanding. I have also worked extensively with cancer patients/survivors and their families to better see how God is showing up in the upheaval and to find peace amidst uncertainty. In all instances, my goal is to facilitate your ability to listen to the God within and be guided in life's choices from that Source.

Profile: I have served as a healthcare chaplain since 2010, specializing in areas of trauma, hospice, grief/loss, cancer and chronic illness. I am grateful and humbled to connect with people of any (or no) spiritual affiliation or faith background who desire a greater awareness of their life, relationships and belonging to something greater than themself. My ancestry is Irish and Iroquois, so I place a high value on connection with nature and wisdom found in flowing with the natural rhythm. My spiritual direction training was in the contemplative Christian method, and I seek to incorporate yoga and creativity in my practice.
