Spiritual direction is my passion. I learned the word for the first time in my first spiritual formation class,
and the word would not let me go. I offer spiritual direction with individuals and small groups. I supervise
individual and group supervision for spiritual direction. And, I am always open to a conversation about the
fruit of the hard work we do together.
