Religious background
I consider myself non-denominational but have attended the same church all my christian life up until moving from Manawatu to South Auckland/north Waikato early 2024. My husband, daughter and i now attend a church that is radically different to our previous church which i find adds to the richness of the christian spiritual life.
I trained as a counsellor in 2000 through Bible College of NZ and have been a professional counsellor since 2003. I have completed various other counselling training programmes and am a trained clinical supervisor for counsellors and other health professionals.
My passion for spiritual direction was initially sparked during my counselling training and later grew through my own experience of spiritual direction.
I completed two years of training at Spiritual Growth Ministries Aotearoa. The training/formation programme has given me a much richer experience and perspective of God. I have taken this richness into my practice as a spiritual director.
Approach to spiritual direction
Spiritual direction is usually once per month for 60 minutes. This can be in person at my office in Pukekohe or online.
Spiritual direction will provide you with dedicated time and a confidential space where you can plumb the depths of your personal/spiritual life at a pace that is suitable to you.
As spiritual director i consider my role as partnering with you as you traverse and travail the heights and depths of your personal/spiritual journey, encouraging you to notice and attend to the invitations and movements of the Holy amidst your life experiences and current journey.
