I have a lifelong love of the mysterious and creative Presence we often call the Divine or True Nature. This brought me early in life into the Christian ministry and following a Christian contemplative path. I spent 33 years as a clinical pastoral educator guiding ministers, religious leaders, chaplains and educators in personal and professional development. This is where I delved deeply into psychological understandings of personality and spiritual development. I have also experienced the power of partnership and motherhood and cherish those dimensions of life as well. In addition, I have been trained in spiritual guidance from an eco-feminist perspective. Drawn to the wisdom and integration of Diamond Approach 18 years ago, I have been an active student and am currently an ordained teacher-minister. I love the practice of inquiry and guiding others to be in touch with their essential embodied being and experience.
Introductory Description: 

I am available for in person and zoom individual sessions.  

What attracted you to the Diamond Approach?: 

I had been reading Sandra Matri's book--The Spirituality of the Enneagram-- and feeling this tug toward a deeper exploration in my spiritual life.  I noticed she referred to the Diamond Approach as foundational to her work and so I looked up the nearest offering.  The next month I showed up at a retreat in the Midwest on Compassion.  I was pretty sure I already knew a lot about compassion. I was surprised how the field of compassion in the retreat, the open ended inquiry, the holding and teaching of the teachers touched my soul in such an immediate, gentle and truthful way.  My experience and knowing of compassion was expanded, as my heart opened to the hurts and love that was there.  I have found the Diamond Approach to be a direct portal into the multi-dimensional expanse of my own soul and of all of reality.  It begins with a love of what is true right here and now.  A simple step into our direct experience.
