The privilege, blessing, and pleasure of spending silent time in our loving God’s presence drew me to the blessing and the art of spiritual direction.
When we meet you may expect a moderate to slow pace; some intuited inquiry; a chance to share your spiritual journey map with me; we will pause often in silence, to reflect upon what was just spoken; we will talk about what you are reading – spiritual, biblical, and secular; we my draw something, using the principles of IDT [Interactive Drawing Theory].
On each occasion you may quite rightly expect to notice God’s presence and God’s movement within you, and between us.

You are walking on a beach and in the distance you see a small fire on the foreshore. As you approach, you see two people sitting beside it and recognise Jesus as one of them. He invites you to sit and spend time with Him. His companion is your spiritual director. He explains that you have spiritual direction available every moment of every day through His Holy Spirit. His companion on the beach has agreed to help you to hear, reflect and process the work of His Holy Spirit at whatever frequency you select.

Often when we begin, or when we are on our spiritual journey, we come across an ‘intersection of uncertainty’ - not knowing which way to turn, feeling the need for meaningful guidance. My sense is spiritual direction is, by its’ nature, a supporting guide on our pilgrimage to knowing and growing our spiritual selves. In spiritual direction you will find yourself chaperoned by a director and guided by the spirit of Love. There is deep listening, prayer, parables, dreamwork, enneagram and discernment in this sacred container. And, overtime, awareness of self and spirit develops; telling markers, symbols and associations announce their place, their nurturing value in your spiritual formation. Your uncertainty of which way to turn gains clarity, all the while moving you farther along on your spiritual journey. Slowly, and assuredly your meaningful relationship with God unfolds……. and it is good.

I love to offer a variety of creative practices within Spiritual Direction, both one-on-one and in small groups. I'm continually amazed at how God meets people when enagaging our senses creatively, especially through touch, visually and by listening.
