Personal Care for Your Soul: Spiritual Direction and Contemplative Healing

I’m a certified spiritual director, and I’ve facilitated transformational encounters with Jesus for hundreds of spiritual seekers. I’d love to serve you. Customize your experience to fit your needs, choosing spiritual direction, contemplative healing prayer or a combination of both. We’ll meet by zoom or in person (if you’re local to the Cincinnati area) for sessions uniquely fitted to your journey.

What are spiritual direction and contemplative healing, you ask? And why would you want them? Spiritual direction and contemplative healing can be practiced together or separately as you choose. Together, they contribute to your sustained spiritual wellness and the health of your soul.

Spiritual Direction

A spiritual director is a trained listener who will accompany you as you share about your spiritual journey, helping you to notice God’s presence and activity along the way, as well as your personal reactions and responses. Together, we share safe, confidential space as I listen and offer questions and spiritual practices to help you discern God’s movement in your life and live more deeply connected with the love of God. Generally, directees meet monthly-ish for one-hour sessions with a director. 

You might be interested in spiritual direction if you are

  • Facing a major life decision

  • Desiring to learn new ways to pray

  • Questioning your theology or faith as you’ve known it 

  • Longing for a deeper connection with God

  • Sensing a call or stirring of a new dream

  • Looking for someone to journey with you over time 

Contemplative Healing

Contemplative healing is a practice that opens safe space for you to connect with God for inner healing and restoration of the soul. Together, we journey into the high, wide, long and deep love of God that heals and restores. Opening noise-free, formula-free, shame-free space, we listen and watch together for how God wants to meet you with healing in your pain, shame or trauma. We’d meet for a series of sessions as needed focusing specifically on healing, or we can infuse contemplative healing as part of your practice of spiritual direction.
