Profile Details
I believe spiritual companionship is about holding sacred space at an "Open Table." It is the profound privilege of listening together for the gentle, often subtle movements of the Divine in your everyday life.
The spiritual path is rarely linear; it encompasses varied terrain, quiet valleys, and the deep, mysterious unfolding of the unconscious. My role as a companion is not to lead or to teach, but to walk alongside you, honoring your unique relationship with the Divine—especially as it reveals itself beyond the confines of traditional religious institutions.
My Background & Approach
My own journey is deeply rooted in an ecumenical exploration of the contemplative traditions. With a Master of Divinity (Theology) and a Doctorate in Education, my academic training focused heavily on the mystics within Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. I also humbly serve as a Friar in the Community of Francis and Clare within the Episcopal Church.
For over 40 years, I have accompanied individuals across all stages of life—from youth to the elderly—through various ministries and profound life transitions. In addition to my theological background, I am a trained mental health clinician with a deep reverence for Carl Jung’s work with the unconscious. While our time in spiritual companionship is distinctly non-clinical, my background in depth psychology and human development allows me to companion you safely and comfortably through the complex intersections of spiritual healing and personal growth.
Offerings
Individual Companionship: One-on-one sessions dedicated to active listening, discernment, and cultivating your inner life.
Group Retreats: I take great joy in facilitating group retreats centered on silence, contemplation, and recognizing the Divine in our daily rhythms.
If you are seeking a deeper connection to the Divine, I invite you to reach out. We can arrange a brief, introductory conversation to explore if this space feels like the right fit for your spiritual journey.
