Spiritual Companion/Grief Counseling

We live in a busy world where people seek to be heard and supported. For some, there is a longing to deepen relationships with self, others, environment, and Ultimate Reality—however we name the ineffable. As a Spiritual Companion, I walk alongside you in active presence, listening to and honoring your sacred stories. I offer support and encouragement while helping you explore deeper questions.

My approach integrates guided meditation, deep listening as we explore your personal narrative, insightful questions, grief support, journaling, and facilitating reflection on the life journey. With a Masters Degree in Theology and Spiritual Direction from The University of St. Catherine, I bring both academic depth and compassionate practice to our work.

These stories may encompass loss in its many forms, wanted or unwanted change, questions of authentic self, resilience, end-of-life review, and journeys into spiritual practices, including art as a spiritual practice. As a companion, I do not seek to provide answers but to explore what you seek, with Spirit-Self at the center of our circle.

We are meant to heal and grow toward wholeness through our life cycles, as seen in nature. This movement toward healing can challenge us, shaking the ground beneath us and bringing us to soul-searching questions.

My practice is interspiritual, drawing on the common wisdom found across faiths—a shared journey of connection and compassion that transcends specific religious boundaries. I aim to support your truth and how your inner guidance calls you to be present in the world.

For over 35 years, I have offered support in grief and loss, transpersonal psychology, inner child work, end-of-life care, and healing arts. It remains a privilege to be present with individuals from diverse faiths and cultures, witnessing our shared human experience.

I am the author of “One World: A Journey of Becoming,” an intimate collection of poetry and paintings that guides readers through the global pandemic, offering a path to renewal and gratitude.
