Spiritual Direction Philosophy

I offer creative and compassionate space that welcomes your whole self, honours your complexity, and invites transformation. We can co-create a time for reflection that helps integrate your values into your life, deepen your spiritual connection, and nurture your growth.

Supporting people of all genders and theologies, I particularly delight in working with those who have barriers to spiritual community because they are queer, trans, neuro-sparkly, living with chronic pain/disability, parent children with complex needs and/or confusing behaviours, and/or religious professionals.

I am an ordained Unitarian Universalist minister, primarily inspired by Pagan, Buddhist, and arts-based practices. I approach this work with a trauma-informed and anti-oppressive lens.
