Services

Building a trusting relationship with clients, I listen deeply and walk with you to craft a working plan. Together we step back, consider context, gain perspective, and begin to put words to your story. Getting your balance back you will learn new skills to calm emotions, deepen self esteem, and clearly communicate what you think, feel and need toward stronger more satisfying relationships. Please call.

I am both a licensed counselor and a certificated Spiritual Director in the Christian tradition. I honor both disciplines as separate services seeing them as complimentary paths toward wholeness.

In a nutshell, Spiritual Direction is an ancient practice with a trained guide who listens deeply and opens safe space to reflect on your spiritual journey becoming more aware of the Sacred in your life.

People seek out a Spiritual Director for many reasons: you may be struggling with serious doubt, at a crossroads in your life, experiencing transition in vocation, or discerning direction for next steps.

Reviews

” I discovered how to recognize and name my feelings after a lifetime of avoidance…and find self worth buried under years of negative thinking. Her gentle reminders of God’s presence in my life led me to a much deeper desire to enhance my spiritual journey with prayer and meditation.”

-Anonymous Client

“Her knowledge and skills in understanding and addressing the impact or traumatic experiences on both a family/community and individual level far exceeds most of the professionals I know in the Louisville area. She has an unparalleled understanding and skills related to integrating spiritual beliefs and practices into her therapeutic relationships.” -Dr. Sam Stodgehill, St. Lukes Center

She has networked effectively and established an excellent reputation in the area as a therapist, presenter and social advocate. I invited her to be a guest speaker in my classes at seminary; she consistently did an outstanding job. I have also heard from area pastors that she offered the best boundary training workshop that they had ever attended.” -Dr. Carol Cook, Louisville Seminary
