About Me

I was trained as a spiritual director at Talbot School of Theology where I received my MA in Spiritual Formation and Soul Care; I have been providing spiritual direction since 2019. I find it such a joy to sit with my fellow sojourners and watch God’s work unfold in their lives as we explore together the mysterious and confusing love of God. I specifically enjoy working with those who are struggling with spiritual doubts or darkness, spiritual shame, church hurt, or those who are simply tired and confused. I offer in-person spiritual direction in the La Mirada area and remote direction via Zoom.

About Me

I live in the Central Oregon High Desert and serve as pastor of a church my wife and I planted over 18 years ago. I sensed God’s calling into the ministry of Spiritual Direction during my doctoral studies (Leadership and Spiritual Formation) at Portland Seminary. After graduation, I completed the Spiritual Direction Certification Program at Portland Seminary.

My calling as a spiritual director is to assist others in discerning God's movements in their lives and provide them space to construct their own framework. Often, it is within our life transitions where God works in our formation. While not uncommon, I have experienced many challenging transitions in my own life (personally, vocationally, theologically, spiritually) that taught me to patiently listen for God’s leading.

As one who has been in pastoral ministry for over 20 years, I understand the challenges pastors can encounter in their own private, spiritual formation. Prior to pastoral ministry, I served in various ministries within the context of local churches, and encountered the typical issues that lay ministry presents.

I continue to study as I have a profound interest in different streams of spiritual theology, and how that understanding is applied into our lives.

About Me

Do you long for a deeper connection with God as you go through life one day after the next? Trying to nurture that desire in the midst of so many responsibilities, opportunities, and relationships is challenging. It's difficult to find a quiet space and uninterrupted time to process life and ponder the important questions. Spiritual Direction helps create that rhythm and focus. It is a discipline that supports and enables a ‘pilgrim posture’ of slowing, expecting, noticing, and welcoming God in the midst of real-life busyness.

My own experience of receiving Spiritual Direction has been life changing. I had no idea I was carrying so much grief! Living life includes disappointments, loss, unfulfilled dreams, as well as family vacations, promotions, and celebrations. But we often don’t take time to process the sadness or disappointments. Gradually our joy is diminished and God may feel distant as we keep “shoulding” ourselves.

I love to listen and create space for people to be seen and heard; to sit with others in sadness or celebration; to witness God’s gentleness and compassion take someone by surprise. It is such a privilege to share in someone’s journey as they experience healing and the return of joy, or to see someone’s calling clarified and become front and center.

I am a life-long learner and follower of Jesus. Most of my career has been in academic medicine as a pediatrician with a brief stint as an associate pastor. One of my interests is the intersection of how the body informs our understanding and integration of life experiences. I have an M.Div. from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, D. Min. from Gordon-Conwell, and my Spiritual Direction Certification is from the Fall Creek Abbey in Indianapolis.

I currently live in Arvada, Colorado but will always be part of the Buckeye Nation! I offer both in-person and virtual appointments. If you’re interested, please reach out! I meet with potential clients for an initial one-hour complimentary session so that we can explore together if Spiritual Direction is something you are interested in pursuing at this time, and whether we are a good fit.

About Me

I grew up in Northern Ghana as the son of missionaries. My life story developed marrying a Floridian 27 years ago and have three adult children. It has been a journey that included being a professional pilot, a missionary, a sojourner…yet one of greatest gifts along the path has been the freedom in encountering the knowing the Fathers love for me. It was always so, however now I can live as if I wasn’t less loved. I received a diploma in spiritual direction form Manresa Centre for Spirituality in Dublin, and practice in person in Ireland or via Skype to clients around the world. Fear, worry, anxiety and shame are all a part of who we are…yet His still small voice calls you to trust…trust in new ways, Please let me know how I may accompany your spiritual journey in listening and knowing Jesus in beautiful ways to His Peace and freedom.

About Me

I am so blessed to offer spiritual direction and have a great love for helping Christians recognize all the ways that God is active in their lives. No matter what our circumstances, God is continually loving, teaching, redeeming and healing us. I am enthusiastic about creativity and the arts, and teach on play, improvisation, creativity and worship. God has also walked with me through relational and physical pain (previous broken marriage, breast cancer, death of a parent). Through those experiences, God has developed in me a deeper compassion for our weaknesses and a marvel at what Christ can do for us in the midst of our trials.

I have been giving spiritual direction since 2003, and supervising directors since 2005. I received a master’s degree in Spiritual Formation and Soul Care from Biola University where I also received my direction training. Having lived in Toronto, Canada; Dallas, TX; and Southern California; I now live in Hamilton, Ontario, with my husband Matthew, who is a scholar and writer on Christian spirituality and neuropsychology, and our old Chihuahua dog Gomez. I was blessed to be the founding director of ESDA for its first 5 years, altogether I worked for Grafted Life about 9 years. I am currently a candidate for ordination in the Anglican Church in Canada.

I am not currently taking on any new directees, as my schedule is now full. But I'm happy to make referrals to other quality spiritual directors I know.

About Me

“God comes to us disguised as our lives”…I have always found that statement to be intriguing. Have you ever considered that God could be speaking to you through the ordinary circumstances of your life? Where is God at work in your life and what are His invitations to you?

My calling is to offer spiritual companionship to women as they navigate the many roles, relationships and transitions in their lives and help them to find freedom in Christ in their places of brokenness, fear and shame. I long to help women awaken to the Presence of God in their daily lives and I seek to offer a safe harbor, a place where others can feel seen, heard and received in the love of Christ.

I received my training in Spiritual Direction through Christian Formation and Direction Ministries (CFDM) in Los Angeles, CA, along with 2 years of soul care training for church leaders at Biola University’s Institute of Spiritual Formation. I have been married to the love of my life for 33 years and have 2 adult children and a 150 pound Bullmastiff, named Bentley.

About Me

Spiritual formation was, for me, a ray of hope when life wasn't working the way I understood it. I knew that God was real, and I knew the Holy Spirit was there, but it felt like there was something missing, and it was first in the community at the Institute for Spiritual Formation that I discovered that what was missing was - strangely - me. I had to recognize that as much as God mattered to me, I mattered to God, a rather drastic shift in my perspective, but one that I hope I can bring to my relationship with directees.

I grew up the second son of a Baptist pastor but managed to work my way into the Anglican church, where I discovered I really appreciate the tangible quality that symbolism and ritual provides. I received my training in direction partially from the Institute for Spiritual Formation, partially from Regis College in Toronto, and partially from bumping elbows with enough spiritual directors that enough of it rubbed off. I have a Masters in Spiritual Formation and a Ph.D. in Pastoral Theology, focusing on the neuroscience of spirituality (because somewhere along the way, I decided theology needs more neuroscience in it).

My style in session tends to be one primarily of giving space and listening, allowing people to unfold their stories but asking questions to open things up further and trying to find threads to tie things together. I hope that direction provides a place where people feel heard and cared for, and if God is in the quiet whisper, as Elijah found, then I also hope the direction room can be a place where we can stop long enough to hear. Blessings to you as you discern where the Lord is in your journey.

About Me

Life is eternal and the people God so loves around us everywhere are precious. Listening for the holy of our every days, I continue to be awed by the beauty of the image of God in people. I am eternally thankful for people who have brought clarity and light into the midst of my mystery and challenge, into those things not easily explained or understood. When others have offered a space for me to bring all that I am into all of who God is, I can see that I am fully known. I have seen God's unconditional love as others allowed me space to see all the places God had been with me, and was with me. And I could look forward with faith and hope that there would be no place in the future where I would be left alone.

I am thankful for for those who welcome space for questions and mystery and unanswered questions. I am grateful for those helping me see the "particularness" of being created in God's image for eternal good and God's glory. I want to offer a graced and prayerful presence for others to experience God’s love and presence and care.

In spiritual direction we rest in the reality of God's Trinitarian presence. We listen for the holy, grow in awareness of the holy, and listen with more awareness to the ways God is ever with us. Our life will be transformed when we live it with God.

Beloved community through the Renovaré Institute (2012) and Richmont Graduate University’s Spiritual Direction Program (2015) helped me see walking with others as a spiritual director was my particular gift. I trust deeply in God’s transforming work through spiritual direction and it my great joy and passion. Chattanooga is a short drive to my small home town of Chickamauga, just over the Georgia line, where I love meeting with folks in my home office. I am available for distance direction as well.

And I do think most anything can be made a bit better by sharing a cup of coffee with real cream.

About Me

No matter the context or role, I always find myself accompanying others toward threshold moments. My 30+ years as a bi-vocational pastor provides a unique reservoir of experience from which to offer spiritual accompaniment in everyday life and work. I have served in a variety of frontline leadership roles as a pastor-teacher, chaplain, spiritual director, Ignatian retreat guide, and in business as a packaging sales representative, peer mentor and work-life coach.

In midlife, I updated my seminary education, earning a Doctor of Ministry degree in transformational leadership. My dissertation project made the case for a major reframing and paradigm shift in Christian formation and mission. It's purpose: to create a biblical teaching resource for experiential learning that would help form missionary disciples in every day life and work, bearing witness to Jesus. See “Luke-Acts Improv: Biblical Narratives That Get You into The Act”, Harmon Press, Woodinville, WA 2010

During this time, my prayer life was significantly transformed by the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola and studies in improvisation.

I trained as a Spiritual Director in the tradition of the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola with SEEL of Puget Sound, after having been informally mentored for several years in the practice of spiritual direction by a Jesuit priest. Ignatian spiritual direction is cultivating the art of discernment, that is to hear and recognize the voice of Jesus through Scripture and prayer. This leads to freedom, clarity, and focus for life and ministry, along with confidence to act in accordance with God’s leading. . . so you may be able to discern what is best. . . (Philippians 1:9-10; Luke 24:13-32, John 10:27)

I wear Luke-Acts Improv lenses like an actor on an improv stage finding his place in the story. “Luke-Acts Improv” is a metaphor for reframing our lives in the transformative drama of the biblical story. This Gospel frame helps set the stage to see God in all things; to notice, listen, and discern where God may be at work.

I am also a trained Ignatian retreat guide for the Spiritual Exercises in Everyday Life.

In recent years, my experience has been significantly impacted by becoming a Benedictine Oblate, at Westminster Abbey, Mission, BC, Canada. The Benedictine Rule, with its spirituality of work, has a great deal to offer the individual grappling with issues of work-life balance.

It’s a joy to be able to offer these streams of living water in Christ to support and encourage others, “that their hearts may be encouraged as they are knit together in love, to have all the riches of assured understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, of Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. (Colossians 2:2-3)

About Me

I like to think of the spiritual life as a garden, full of seasons and cycles. It's my great joy to come along side others to listen and to notice what God is growing in them and to be reminded of his loving care. While I enjoy holding space for anyone, I particularly enjoy being present to pastors, ministry leaders and people going through liminal space and transition. As a global citizen who has lived in, traveled through and worked with ministries in over 50 countries, I also enjoy holding space for expats who live between worlds.

My work as a documentary filmmaker and producer of the Betwixt Podcast explores the liminal spaces where transformation happens. My academic background is in Biblical Studies, Old Testament, Archaeology and Communications. While I continue to love these topics, the best education I have received was through the Sustainable Faith School of Spiritual Direction.

It's my joy to offer individual direction, group direction, facilitate clearness committees and community discernment processes, teach, and lead contemplative prayer and retreats. I am also certified to teach the enneagram, lead the Ignatian Exercises and offer training for individuals, groups, and leaders. I am also a trained labyrinth facilitator.

I am married to a University Professor and we will live in Ormond Beach, FL with our two adventurous daughters.

About Me

I was active in prayer ministry and Bible studies at my church for many years but felt the need to go deeper in my relationship with God, so I began spiritual direction. In that sacred space, I grew in awareness of God’s presence with me as I learned spiritual discernment. We all need companions on our faith journey, and I consider it a joy to accompany others in spiritual direction. I was missioned as a Spiritual Director in April 2022 after three years of formation at the Lanteri Center for Ignatian Spirituality in Denver, CO.
My worship experience has been in evangelical and liturgical churches, and I am comfortable in both. I have a strong biblical foundation, and in spiritual direction the emphasis is on one’s relationship with God, providing a more complete experience of Him which I hope to share with others as part of soul care.
I am an active outdoors woman and enjoy hiking. I have been married 49 years and have four children with ten grandchildren, the joy of our lives!

About Me

It’s a privilege to listen to the way God is stirring your soul, hold the intricacies of your story, and sit together in the Presence of God. Every human soul is a unique work of art and infinitely loved by God. He invites us to abide with Him but it’s a long, arduous journey to learn to do just that. Can you relate? Offering soul care and giving the gift of truly being seen and heard and then positioning people to hear and receive from God themselves is one of the greatest privileges of my life. We are not meant to do this alone.

I am an Anglican priest with 10 years of parish experience, a writer, and a spiritual director. Thirteen years ago I began a healing journey while also getting training with Healing Care Ministries and then finished a degree with HCM International in the School of Spiritual Formation and the Art of Spiritual Direction.

About Me

As a spiritual director I am a listening and prayerful companion for people as they journey with God. He loves you deeply and desires for you to become even more aware and see ways to respond to His loving presence in your everyday experiences of life. I would be honored to share this time and space with you.

I am a ministry wife, a former school teacher, and a mother of 4 adult children. Life-giving activities for me include being outside - whether I’m walking, running, or sitting quietly on the patio. I find God speaks to me in unique ways through His creation.

As my children grew and left the “nest,” I began a period of discernment to see ways God might be calling me in the next season of life. At that time, I sensed a call to receive training to become a Spiritual Director. I completed a two-year training program to become a certified Spiritual Director through the Institute of Christian Spirituality which is a part of Lipscomb University.

My areas of experience thus far is with women, though I am open to offering direction to men. Most of my experience has been with mothers of children of all ages. I am visually impaired and unable to drive. This has impacted my own journey with God and I believe can be particularly helpful to you if you are dealing with physical limitations in your own life. Finally, if you are near the season where your children are leaving the “nest,” I’d be eager to be a companion for you as you discern what opportunities and invitations God has for you, as I have recently journeyed through such a season and I discovered God in fresh ways.

We can meet on Zoom, phone, or in-person. If in-person, I like to meet outside, if it is possible; otherwise, inside is fine.

Blessings and please do not be afraid to reach out.
