I read somewhere that life is a series of hellos and goodbyes. While life is certainly much more complicated than that, we do encounter this ebb and flow in relationship to ourselves and others. From nagging psychological shifts, spiritual insights, relationships, and life changes, to the ultimate shift of dying and death, our souls seek our attention in our suffering. If you find yourself in any of these (or other) transitional spaces, I would love to help you navigate your experiences, fears, hopes, and any other feelings you may have. Together, we can walk with and trust the transformations your life leads you to and through.
As a pastoral counselor, I am trained to listen to and look for the patterns and unsettled places in your life that are of a spiritual and psychological nature. If you find yourself at a threshold, then maybe together we can explore the restlessness and uncertainty to help you live a meaningful and integrated life. While often not easy, it's worth the work.
Where the human and the Holy meet is where I like to dwell. This place offers clues to a meaningful life. Its tensions hint at the soul’s needs. We each have a unique journey and connection with the Divine or spirituality. How this presents in your life is the substance of our work together. Please reach out to see if we might be a good fit for your journey.
