Ease into the conversation*
Hashpa’ah (הַשְׁפַּע) a.k.a. Spiritual Direction is the practice of encounter; it is meeting deeply, engaging fully; an opportunity to embody what truly matters to you.
You may not be able to consciously name the exact reason you have landed here. What you do know is that there is a stirring, a calling, a deep desire to have a different kind of conversation.
My clients come from myriad walks of life — varying ages, stages, and identities. What do they have in common?
Openness, curiosity, and a growth mindset
Capacity for complexity (and the hope to hold more)
A desire to step into the Mystery
They seek not just knowledge, but also wisdom
And most importantly, they want a partner in this journey.
My counseling process engages full-body listening and a refined intimacy with stillness and silence.
My teachers are a diverse lineage of luminaries and our work together draws from an extensive network of nourishing resources — tools of earth and of ether. Allow me to bear witness to your journey of becoming.
Set up a call to see if spiritual counseling can support you.
Deepen your spiritual literacy.
Embody your gifts.
Unearth languages to express mystical and subtle states.
Hold expansive states of consciousness.
Access clarity about next steps.
Rest in open awareness.
Connect with the vitality pulsing through all things.

*The line ”ease into the conversation” comes from one of my all-time favorite poems:
Everything is Waiting for You
by David Whyte
After Derek Mahon
Your great mistake is to act the drama
as if you were alone. As if life
were a progressive and cunning crime
with no witness to the tiny hidden
transgressions. To feel abandoned is to deny
the intimacy of your surroundings. Surely,
even you, at times, have felt the grand array;
the swelling presence, and the chorus, crowding
out your solo voice. You must note
the way the soap dish enables you,
or the window latch grants you freedom.
Alertness is the hidden discipline of familiarity.
The stairs are your mentor of things
to come, the doors have always been there
to frighten you and invite you,
and the tiny speaker in the phone
is your dream-ladder to divinity.
Put down the weight of your aloneness and ease into the
conversation. The kettle is singing
even as it pours you a drink, the cooking pots
have left their arrogant aloofness and
seen the good in you at last. All the birds
and creatures of the world are unutterably
themselves. Everything is waiting for you.
