While I trained as a Spiritual Director in The Seed under Fr Mark Chamberlain in 2001 and as a Supervisor in 2017, I’ve felt the companionship of God since childhood.

Conversation with God came naturally to me.

I grew up Presbyterian in the United States I have been in New Zealand for 50 years. I finally felt spiritually at home on our Presbyterian Marae at Ohope Beach. My mother’s people were native American. I was ordained to ministry in 2002.

I love encouraging people to

• use all their senses to notice how God is present in their life
• become more intimate with God through daily spiritual discipline
• tell the story of their relationship with God as it grows and changes
• truly know how much God loves them just as they are
  

  I use contemplative listening, silence, interactive drawing, spiritual imagination
