The path that led me here

At fifteen, I sat cross-legged on my bedroom floor, holding my first tarot deck. What started as curiosity became something deeper—a glimpse into the hidden wisdom we all carry. That moment set my life in motion.


I spent nearly two decades in congregational ministry before life led me in a new direction.

Listening Beneath the Surface

Working later as a Green Burial Steward showed me how being with death awakens us to life. Alone in the prairie and woods, tending graves, walking the land, I began to notice that the unseen was speaking, as it always had—through dreams, symbols, and intuition. Only now it had a voice. And my walk with mediumship began.

The Work I Do Now

I’m a Spiritual Director and Intuitive Guide living and working inside a historic home, where I offer wisdom, wonder, and witness through one-on-one guidance, intuitive readings, and the practice of soul-led living.


Some sessions are in my cottage, some online, others at The Grove in Norton, and larger programs meet at the Bath Church. In person or on Zoom, the heart of the work is the same: a quiet space to listen, reflect, and make meaning of what is unfolding.

How I work

The Guided Path

One-on-One Guidance

One-on-One Guidance

The Guided Path offers resources to help you navigate your path. With tools like Field Guides and Compendiums, you’ll have structured support to reconnect with yourself, make sense of what’s unfolding.

One-on-One Guidance

One-on-One Guidance

One-on-One Guidance

My one-on-one sessions offer a steady place to bring what’s rising. We meet inside a relationship of trust where your questions, grief, symbols, and intuitions are welcome. I offer Spiritual Direction and Intuitive Guidance as a practice of deep listening and trust. 

Gathering Together

One-on-One Guidance

Gathering Together

In-person events, workshops, and group offerings allow us to slow down and explore in community. Whether we're sharing tea, learning together, or tending symbolic work in a group, we gather to witness one another’s paths and practice the art of soul attention together.

Grounded in expertise and ethical practice

Finding Your Path Forward

Life has a way of speaking to us through dreams, patterns, presence, and quiet nudges that won’t let go.

When things feel uncertain, those whispers often carry the guidance you need.

My work is about helping you notice what’s already there, make sense of what’s unfolding, and find a path that feels true to you.
