I have dedicated my life and work to personal and social renewal. As a practicing spiritual companion for 15 years, I accompany people of all faiths (or no current faith practice) helping them notice, discern and deepen their relationship with the Sacred (Divine, Spirit, God are other names people often use) in their lives. I accompany people through the interior movements of consolation and desolation in their spiritual journeys, towards living more intentional and authentic lives.
I am a deep and compassionate listener, building trust and safety that permit people to explore their most tender and authentic selves. My intent is to be fully present to the other, to listen deeply, and to ask the kind of questions that gives the other a chance to discover and express his or her own truth, whatever that might be.
“The human soul doesn’t want to be advised or fixed or saved.
It simply wants to be witnessed — to be seen, heard and companioned exactly as it is.”
Parker Palmer
I help people navigate their life transitions especially around life and work meaning, loss and grief, relationships, and re-purposing one’s skills and passions for the greater good. I have a special interest in the second half of life, walking with women and men as they discern issues of aging, mortality and life legacy.
