Directory of Spiritual Directors
The Transforming Center is pleased to offer a listing of spiritual directors* who have completed one or more of our two-year Transforming Community® experiences and have also completed a recognized training program in spiritual direction. Each listing indicates if the spiritual director offers in-person and/or remote (online or by phone) spiritual direction. Scheduling and fees for spiritual direction are determined entirely between the director and the directee.
Spiritual directors included in this directory will:
- Have completed a Transforming Community (TC);
- Have completed a recognized spiritual direction training program;
- Have at least two years of experience providing spiritual direction;
- Be faithful to spiritual direction and peer supervision in his/her own practice; and
- Abide by the ethical guidelines put forth by Spiritual Directors International. Click here to view.
*This listing is not an indication of the Transforming Center’s endorsement or recommendation of individual spiritual directors. What we are able to indicate is that each person listed has been on a significant spiritual journey with us and has completed training and formation in this important ministry of spiritual direction. The Transforming Center is not a certifying body but rather a spiritual community that affirms the ministry of spiritual direction in the lives of leaders and seeks to help leaders explore options with spiritual directors in their areas.

Many years ago, as part of my offerings as an executive coach, I developed a unique, strong process to clarify Values, Vision, Voice. I’ve found the same curriculum to be very useful as a subtle structure underneath my spiritual direction. In addition, I work with clients to develop their relationship with God and neighbor, using a proprietary curriculum based on the two greatest commands. I’m also doing more and more work using the Enneagram (certified by the Loughriges). Also helpful is my training in MBTI. I love to work with directees around presence, in contrast to guilt/regret and fear/anxiety. Above all, directees feel heard and loved. I love to cultivate a sense of wonder around God.
My greatest area of interest is meeting with those who are seeking greater intimacy with God. I enjoy Contemplative practices and Ignatian Spiritual Exercises. I meet with men and women.
Enneagram work; life-mapping; honoring the body – health & wellness
