CERTIFICATION FROM: Masters in Spiritual Formation and Soul Care from Talbot Theological Seminary's Institute for Spiritual Formation
​
AREAS OF INTEREST: Growing in intimacy with God, life transitions, processing disappointment and loss, work/life balance, church leadership, and issues unique to women at every stage of life.
ABOUT: I consider it a great privilege to spend time with Christian men and women who are seeking a safe place to be heard without judgment. Many need someone with whom they can process relational tensions, life transitions, church stresses, and circumstances - especially when these reveal a gap between their learned theology and felt experience.
​
I earned my Masters in Spiritual Formation and Soul Care from Talbot Theological Seminary at Biola University, where I am currently serving as adjunct faculty and as a staff spiritual director. Previously, I served on the executive team at a large Covenant church for nearly 20 years, and am intimately familiar with the dynamics of church life. Most recently, I launched South Bay Soul Care, a ministry dedicated to providing spiritual direction to Christians in the South Bay Area of Los Angeles (see southbaysoulcare.com).
​
I offer individual spiritual direction, group spiritual direction, and retreats, including day retreats for women at my home in Redondo Beach. I am open to meeting online, or in person for those in the L.A. area. I would enjoy meeting with you to explore how God is working in every aspect of your life, so you can experience His goodness and unconditional love.
