FOR INDIVIDUALS AND SMALL GROUPS

Spiritual Direction

Spiritual direction offers time for your soul to breathe.

What Spiritual Direction Is Not

This practice is not coaching, therapy, or pastoral counseling. It is not about fixing,

offering solutions, influencing, or convincing. It is not dogmatic or coercive.

 

As a Spiritual Director, I respect the agency of seekers, nurturing people as they find and follow their own spiritual paths, whether or not they are religiously affiliated. I am committed to authenticity and openness, as well my own ongoing education, learning, and spiritual practice.

Spiritual Direction is a practice for those seeking to cultivate greater awareness of their deepest yearnings and connection with their soul. As a certified Spiritual Director, I act as a companion, holding space for a seeker to…

  • Listen to their deepest yearnings

 

  • Discover and explore their relationship to inner wisdom

 

  • Strengthen their attunement to profound meaning in their lived experiences

 

  • Move closer to becoming their most authentic self.

Spiritual Direction is steeped in contemplative practices, compassionate listening, and reflection. It offers opportunities for you to bring deeper awareness to whatever is arising so you can live a richer, more authentic life in alignment with your deepest values. It encourages you to explore your interconnectedness with the world at large. The process is centered in lovingkindness, resilience, and creative flow.

HOW THE PROCESS WORKS

Individual Spiritual Direction occurs, on average, for one hour every month and can be done by phone or on Zoom.

 

Small Group Spiritual Direction occurs for 90 minutes every month (except July and August) and can be done by Zoom or in person.

 

I am supervised by other Spiritual Directors and held accountable through that direct supervision. I am certified through the Institute for Jewish Spirituality and my practice is insured.

ALL ARE WELCOME

I welcome all seekers, especially those who may have felt disenfranchised by their faith communities of origin, those who wrestle with belief in “god,” and those who connect spirituality to social justice.

“I have a very big life with many people and many commitments. I have a very hard time slowing down to focus on just me and what I need and what I want, let alone on my own spirituality. Catherine subtly and gently encouraged me to do this in the most respectful way. She helped me locate my still, small voice and find my center.”
