What is Spiritual Accompaniment?
A trained spiritual director accompanies another person, listening to their stories with the intent to deepen sacred connection, however one defines that. No matter what your belief or non-belief, engagement in spiritual accompaniment is a confidential, contemplative listening relationship carried out in a truthful, non-judgmental manner.
Through engagement and witness in confidential conversation, reflective listening, prayer, and healing arts, I hold space for self discovery through asking important life questions and sharing mindful practices. With the eyes of our hearts we can see God's spirit within us. You are invited to explore the healing power of God's grace through presence with each other.
