It has always been a delight and a privilege for me to accompany people in walking their personal
faith journey – which may or may not be within a church context. I believe spirituality is intrinsic to our humanity, and is grounded in our very nature of human being-ness and meaning-making.
I see my primary role as providing a safe space for a person to reflect on their life and explore their inner calling, along with the sharing of Christianity’s long and varied traditions of the many paths into the Divine. I believe, with St Thomas Aquinas, that Nature is God’s first Bible, and I personally know Nature’s power to heal, to teach, to reveal…

I love journeying alongside people of all ages as a companion on the way as they listen to, and feel the movements of God’s Spirit in their lives through prayer, contemplation, silence, nature, workplaces, places of worship, and the chaos, and joys of living fully.

The Spiritual Direction Session is a time when the directee has control of the agenda. They are free to bring any topic that they wish or need to talk about. My role is to listen, reflect back what I am hearing and ask questions to help them reflect on what they are saying. I intentionally listen to them and to Holy Spirit, asking for guidance in how I am to respond. The question "Where is God in this?" is uppermost.
Attending my own Spiritual Direction sessions has been so important in my life My heart's desire is to be able to offer the same support to others that I have received. It is a huge privilege to journey with another as they seek to draw closer to our loving God.

Accompanying someone on their spiritual journey is a great privilege! I seek to offer a place of safety and confidentiality where deep listening and reflection occurs - a space where everyone's unique story can be gently unfolded and honoured in God's presence.

For me spiritual direction is :
helping someone notice and respond to the work of Love, of grace, in their lives.
sitting with someone as they explore who 'God' might or might not be for them
witnessing someone's struggle and being a non-judgmental companion
supporting someone as they negotiate their relationship with institutional religion
walking alongside a person as he or she discovers more of who they are and who the divine is
being amazed by the movement of the Holy Spirit in a person's life ...

To accompany anyone is a privilege that I take very seriously. My approach is inclusive and grounded in the fact that Jesus is the ongoing Incarnation of God. I respect the sacredness of everyone’s journey and celebrate the diverse ways God speaks to me as I seek to listen to contemplatively.

In 4 words, my approach is: "Live in the present!"
I am shaped by the Ignatian Exercises and the desire to balance contemplation and action as I follow Jesus - but as your spiritual companion, my role is to help you reflect on how your life is being shaped, and to engage with God in that process.

Greetings! working intuitively with Holye Spirite in my heart is how I approach this ministry. I work in other fields too, so my kete is loaded with all of those tools as well, used for mental well-being, and for super-vision of leaders in their fields. If you choose me as your companion on the spiritual journey you could expect it would be a creative yet quiet and contemplative time, it would have intuitive and intelligent process, plus humour where appropriate. Information would also be shared, and pausing in silence to listen to God would be part of the hour we spend together.

Spiritual Direction provides a space and place to 'hear yourself', explore you own, unique story. There is opportunity of process, sit with questions, look for meaning along with expanding your relationship and experience of The Holy One.
I provide a trustworthy, attentive and hopeful environment. This environment will encourage and enable you to see God at work in your every day through beauty, truth and goodness - in yourself and in The Divine's Kingdom

I came to spiritual direction in my later years after working as a psychologist for 30 years and after some difficulties in defining the boundaries between the two disciplines I have come to a place where they inform each other and blend well.
The role of companioning someone on their journey into the Loving Mystery of God is a privilege. My intention is to listen deeply without judgement, open to all aspects of being because every part of a person; mental, emotional, relational and spiritual is grist to the mill of life and is an invitation drawing us closer to the realisation of Emmanual (God with us).

In spiritual direction I seek to offer a warm and safe space for people to reflect on where the Spirit might already be present, including through noticing what is happening in their ordinary every day lives, and how they might respond and take delight in it.

Spiritual Direction is a place to attend to the questions of meaning, purpose, interconnectedness, hope and faith that humans carry with them. My intention in spiritual direction is to craft a space in which we can listen together to the things that matter most to you: your values, your spirituality, your sense of who you are and the work that is yours to do.

I welcome all people in their beautiful diversity of faith, sexuality, age, ethnicity and gender. And I'll be led by what you're bringing to the sacred space. We co-listen to the Spirit together. It's important to me that dignity of everyone is upheld, we all have stories, sometimes messy, sometimes confusing and we all still bear God's image. We can forget this in the midst of the hard stuff, so lets try to remember again together.

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.

Spiritual Direction sessions are held tenderly in God. The session is about you and God. I'm there to listen carefully to you and stay tuned to the Holy Spirit. I offer confidentiality, privacy in a safe welcoming space. As you talk about your everyday life experiences - your highs and lows, your relationships, your work, your decisions - I will accompany you as you notice, reflect, explore, question and engage with God.
To assist you to move from head to heart and grow in self-awareness and intimacy with God, I can offer interactive drawing therapy, focusing, dream work, imaginative use of scripture, different types of prayer, music, poetry, finding God in nature.
This is both a joy and privilege for me as I accompany another on their spiritual journey.

I care about people finding the way to a deeper connection with the God who loves us, but the how and even the desire is often not clear, and life can be complicated. We need a place to pause and reflect in the presence of another. I see spiritual direction as an opportunity to untangle life and our longings in the presence of a companion who is seeking to listen deeply both to the person, and for what might be the nudges and invitations of God in their journey. It can be a place of discovery and fresh insight in the ‘ordinariness’ of life, often coming through quietness or creative means, available to anyone whatever their age or stage.

Deepening our relationship with God is the journey of a life time & perhaps beyond! My intention is to provide a warm, welcoming, safe space for you to explore and deepen your relationship with God. I find it a profound privilege to accompany people as they explore God's presence in their lives. Spiritual Direction is a sacred space for you and God. Sometimes it is only when we step out of the busyness of our lives and take time to talk about our relationships, work, whanau, hobbies, & passions, to someone who truly listens, that we begin to attune to and become more aware of God's presence within the extra-ordinaryness of our lives.
