What is Spiritual Direction & ACCOMPANIMENT?
Spiritual direction is a gentle, contemplative practice that invites you to listen more deeply to your life, your inner wisdom, and the Sacred as you understand it. Rather than offering advice or fixing problems, spiritual direction provides a compassionate, spacious environment where you can explore your questions, longings, and spiritual experiences with honesty and care.
Rooted in the Christian contemplative tradition—and shaped by Ignatian listening—this work helps you notice how the Spirit is present in the ordinary rhythms of your days: your desires, emotions, relationships, choices, and moments of clarity or confusion. Together, we attend to these movements, often described as consolation (what brings peace, love, alignment) and desolation (what leads to heaviness or disconnection), trusting that God meets you exactly where you are.
As both a Spiritual Director and an Integrative Healing & Creative Arts Practitioner, I also weave in expressive and creative modalities when desired—such as imagery, collage, intuitive art-making, journaling, and gentle somatic awareness. These practices can help you give form to what is stirring within, deepen self-understanding, and open new pathways for spiritual insight. Creativity often becomes another doorway into prayer, discernment, and healing.
My role is to walk alongside you with attentive presence, holding sacred space as you listen for the Sacred’s voice in your unfolding story. Through contemplative practices such as meditative silence, imagination, lectio divina, creative reflection, and mindful awareness, you are supported in discerning what is life-giving, what needs release, and where the Sacred may be inviting you to grow or respond.
Spiritual direction is for anyone seeking clarity, grounding, discernment, or a deeper relationship with the Holy. It honors your unique path and invites you to slow down, breathe, and receive the Sacred guidance already moving within you—gently, faithfully, and always toward greater freedom and wholeness.
Spiritual Direction is a practice of creative, contemplative, and compassionate support for spiritual renewal and inner healing.
