Hello! Welcome to my little corner of the internet. My life was profoundly impacted (restored, really) by a director 10 years ago, and I'm here to help you cross the same terrain. I'm trained in the Ignatian tradition via Lipscomb University. My work so far has centered on artists and men driven by duty. Church hurt, family hurt, career frustrations... in light of how God's made you, and who you really are, what should you do?

Thanks for being here! I hope this snapshot stirs enough within you to know if you'd like to speak further.Â
I trained for years to work in big churches and loved it for a time until I wound up working for a sociopath church planter- I resigned after 18mos and left with PTSD, shattered dreams, and no job. These systems we've been shaped by...some of them hurt people. Â
the transformation came from working with a coach who prioritized experiential knowledge-- try something, what do you notice, what surprised you, etc. Working this way allowed me to restore some parts of me and heal some others, profoundly shaped my family. In a sunday school class on Job and life disappointment, I discovered Spiritual Direction, and did two years of training via Lipscomb University in Nashville, TN. Ignatius was on to something! I've found the Jesuit approach to our interior life SUPREMELY life-giving. You probably don't need more information. You might benefit from reconnecting with what it sounds and smells like when God's whispering in your ear. God's already working in your life. I just help people notice and respond.
And, bonus, if you are a creative person... not only do you emerge more satisfied with yourself, your process and your career... the work is literally better work/stronger material.
So far, my clients have been caretakers driven by duty, some artists, and one classical musician. I generally work via video call, but I do have access to space in East Nashville where we can meet in person as well. Â
