Deep Down


Journey into deeper self-knowledge

What is spiritual direction?

Spiritual Direction is a sacred descent into deeper self-knowledge. Through silence, attention, and care, I accompany those deconstructing religion, facing existential questions, or seeking a more personal and embodied spirituality. These sessions are usually an hour long, once a month, and offer a space of holy listening that allows directees to deepen into mystery, create meaning, and reconnect with the sacred on their own terms. 


If you want to go deeper, if you’re in the dark, I’ve been there. Let’s dive in together!

How does it work?

Spiritual direction is part of a long tradition of sacred companionship. Two people meeting regularly to listen for the movement of the sacred in one’s life. While each journey is unique, we’ll begin with a gentle entry and go deeper over time.

Meet Monthly

We meet for an hour, typically once a month.*

Sessions are grounded in holy listening. It is a calm, spacious time to reflect, notice what’s stirring in your life, and explore your spiritual questions without judgment or agenda.

Explore with Curiosity

Each session is shaped by what you bring.

We might spend time in silence, storytelling, dreamwork, meditative inquiry, or other contemplative practices from my background in yoga and meditation.

Continue the Journey

Between sessions, you’ll have space to reflect and live into what emerged.

 I may offer resources, questions, or practices to support you, but always in service to your own inner wisdom.

*All sessions are currently offered free of charge while I complete my spiritual direction practicum.
