My favourite imagine of the spiritual director is that of midwife - one who is present and assisting the process of birth. The call to spiritual direction for me is the call to be present at the birth of the soul. It is a very sacred work and one I feel very privileged to be involved in. It involves holy listening, caring for wounds, encouraging growth and above all noticing the work of God in all of life. I have been a spiritual director for over twenty years.

offer a contemplative approach to Spiritual Direction to men and women from all walks of life. This approach involves above all a spiritual companionship that is characterized by a deep reflective listening with an individual who wants to explore their relationship with God in a safe, secure and sacred environment. My task as spiritual director is to help a person hear their own unique spiritual story in a new light and offer ways of noticing and responding to the activity of God in their life. Through the spiritual process my deepest desire for individuals is that they will grow in their knowledge of God and themselves which will in turn help them fall more deeply in love with God. Life then, becomes all the more meaningful and richer in every way as a result.

I enjoy that spiritual direction provides an opportunity to accompany people as they attend to God's presence in their lives. On the road to Emmaus the disciples told the story of their experiences. Don't we sometimes walk without recognising Jesus?
I seek to be a companion who listens, respects and is sensitive to others' insights and journey.

I am a Catholic woman, married with children and grandchildren. I belief in the extravagant, tender and mysterious love of the Trinity. I am a contemplative and my approach to spiritual direction is to offer a hearth space, where ones life and faith can be shared and heard and where the tender motions of Love are noticed.
All are welcome and I also offer creative contemplative retreat days, dream workshops and companionship on silent retreats when requested.
I am also happy to supervise spiritual directors.

I prefer to call myself a spiritual companion.
I believe that all of life is sacred, that God speaks to the heart in many tongues, so as I accompany someone on their unique journey; I offer the space - to hear the invitation that is never withdrawn, glimpse God’s presence, gently explore the questions and to encounter and deepen their relationship with the Holy One.

Spiritual Direction provides a wonderful opportunity to accompany people on their journey with Our God. I aim to listen, to draw out and ask questions that help another pay attention to God's activity and presence in their lives. I am trained in the Ignatian Tradition and draw on this in my ministry.

My approach to Spiritual Direction flows from a belief that all of life is sacred. As I journey with another with a listening and open heart my hope is that they discover within their life an invitation to grow into the fullness of the Gospel call to live life to the full.
I journey with another in a holistic way recognising the presence of God in body, mind and spirit. I would hope to deepen in the other a heart presence to Life.

Spiritual Direction is about exploring how the whole of us - our thoughts, feelings, emotions, body and spirit relate to God/ the Divine/ the transcendent.
Spiritual Direction is a chance to explore with a compassionate and wise listener whatever is going on in your life and deep within yourself. It's an opportunity to uncover your own inner wisdom. Wisdom/God draws near as we slow down and listen, and it can be helpful to do this in the company of a Spiritual Director. I love to accompany people of any, or no, faith.

As a Spiritual Director, I am a soul friend to others. I value accompanying others as they search to deepen their relationship with the divine and grow in their own personal spiritual journey. I have a personal interest in the importance of dreams and the way God speaks to us in our spiritual life way. have a special interest in how loss and grief can influence our spirituality. I am also interesed in different personalities and how these can complement and deepen relationships as we come to understand ourselves as the unique person God created and grow in compassion and forgiveness. I believe the interconnectedness of body, mind, spirit and the cosmos add a richness and beauty to each person. For me, “the real Director is the Holy Spirit hidden in the depths of our soul.” Thomas Merton.

I prefer to use the term Companion as I believe I am accompanying a person on their spiritual journey. I like to listen to the person - allow them to 'tell their story' and encouraging them to trust their own personal experiences - reflect upon their experiences and 'seeing' how God is present in the ordinary and sometimes extraordinary daily events of life.
I have been trained through the Spiritual Growth Ministry and have been a Spiritual Director for 15 Years.

I see myself as a companion on another's spiritual journey, being present with the Holy Spirit and my experiences on my faith journey and being enriched in it by the other.
The image of the road to Emmaus is how I see my approach to spiritual direction, where the one seeking direction is Cleopas, I am the other disciple walking alongside and listening to Cleopas, with the Holy Spirit is present.

It is important to me that the directee is leading the way in what she/he wants to talk about and that they feel comfortable.
Together we are looking for God/the Holy Spirit/Jesus in the directees day to day life - in the good places and in the bad ones, in the happy ones and in the sad ones. The aim is to grow closer to the One they believe in, and to find comfort and strength to face life’s challenges. I believe that in learning how deeply they are loved they will also come closer to finding their True Self.
Sometimes images, art, stories, and the interpretation of dreams, etc. are effective tools I use in guiding my directees to find their own truth. If it feels appropriate, I draw on the wisdom of the Enneagram to help them understand themselves better.

I like to use the words spiritual accompaniment and I enjoy accompanying people as they try to find where God is active in their lives. It is, I believe, a privileged journey.

Spiritual Direction is a regular conversation in which you are supported to notice and attune to Divine presence active in your life. It is a place to explore the happenings of daily life through the lens of spiritual communion. God is always speaking. It is for us to learn how to tune into this communication. Our conversations are a safe space to bring, questions, experiences of all types and be with them in a non-judgemental and curious way. Spiritual direction connects us with our heart space. When problems arise in life these can be brought into spiritual direction, they will be explored with the key focus of where is God/Love in this problem.
