Circle Facilitator • Chaplain

Poet • Interdisciplinary Scholar

Yoga Therapist

Welcome friend.  I believe that friendship is the heart of a spiritual life. That reciprocity, tenderness and intimacy with ourselves, the natural world and each other is the path of healing.

As a poet, spiritual companion, facilitator and scholar I tend contemplative spaces that enliven the small voice within. I am curious about the creative future we can imagine together and believe that we can face the initiations of life with curiosity, tenderness, and enlivenment. I am called to witness your wisdom, hold your grief, and companion you in remembering your belonging, responsibility, and love.

I work with groups to cultivate communities of care and council. I believe in the power of relational care and have been a circle facilitator for two decades, seeding, nurturing and tending spaces dedicated to exploring what it means to do the individual work of healing together.

I work with individuals to deepen their capacity to be with themselves and the challenges of life. In dyadic work, my approach to soul-centered care involves exploring the material that emerges with centering practices, embodiment and by providing containment, context and space to transform and awaken.

My practice specializes in being with people as they move into the deeper waters of life, through what my mentor, Francis Weller, calls the rough initiations.  I operate with a belief that through the portals of initiation, we can mature into the elders that we are being called to be on behalf of our people and the world we are embedded in.

“May you know in your bones, you are worthy and whole. May you and your communities, families, projects thrive, grow and seed the world with love and a creative fertility that survives and thrives.”
