I provide Contemplative Care, or what is conventionally referred to as spiritual direction, for seekers and skeptics alike. I work with a range of people and concerns including folks dealing with loss and grief, creative struggles, trust, anxiety, aging, addiction, trauma recovery, and discernment in times of big life changes. I work with clergy, people of devout faith, and people reckoning with religious alienation.
Please note too, I work with straight folks, and with LGBTQI gender non-conforming individuals and the parents, friends, partners and clergy of people in this community.

I live in Olympia, Washington, am a member of Spiritual Directors International (SDI), a Benedictine Oblate of St. Placid Priory in Lacey WA, and a graduate of the Hesychia School of Spiritual Direction (Tucson, AZ). Contemplative and nonbinary, I’m also a writer and media artist – drawn to queering and dismantling conventional power and belief systems, especially patriarchal ideas of God. I’ve been a practicing spiritual director since 2016 and work with folks across the country (U.S.)
Contemplative Care is an immersive and exploratory process that is somewhat conversational. Drawing on a variety of contemplative tools, I approach this work through a finely tuned practice of evocative listening designed to cultivate an ever-deepening experience of mindfulness, rest, and direct connection and access to what some might call the Divine, others might call Interbeing, Creator, Presence, God or Goddess, Oneness, the Mystery. It’s what I like to call the numinous. Together, we’ll tailor this work to your needs and desires.
