Spiritual Counseling
My Approach
My spiritual counseling is not based on a religion.
​
Rather, I take an interspiritual approach that honors all of the world’s wisdom traditions, looking for universal truths that allow us to connect to wholeness. Some people call that wholeness God, the Universe, or Mother Nature. I'm open to any name.
I help people investigate their own religious/spiritual backgrounds and discover what feels true and wholesome for them right now to live a spiritually fulfilled life of purpose and connection to something greater than themselves.
This process involves dialogue, contemplation, journaling, and mindfulness education and practices. For those who are interested, I can also provide guidance around rituals and earth-based spiritual practices.
​
I am not here to push an agenda of what "being spiritual" means or looks like. I approach these conversations from a place of curiosity and mystic wonder, with the utmost respect for each individual's personal beliefs, preferences, and comfort.
​
Spirituality is often an overlooked component to physical and mental healing. Sometimes, developing a personal spiritual practice, in conjunction with other healing modalities, can improve outcomes.*
My Background
My approach to spiritual counseling is based on an ongoing, multi-year study with the Forest Path, a spiritual center in Lake Atitlán, Guatemala. Since July 2024, I have worked as the personal editor for Jaya, the spiritual leader of the center, supporting the writing and publication of his non-dual teachings and mystic poetry.
In April 2025, Tímo and I became the founding board members of the Church of the Forest Path, which we are in the process of legally incorporating in the state of California. We carry on the Forest Path's non-dual spiritual study within our community in Santa Barbara, California, under the guidance of our teachers in Guatemala.
How It Works
About
This form of coaching is highly personalized. There's no one-size-fits-all approach. Individuals may choose to have a single session focusing on a specific spiritual issue or situation that's arisen for them. Others may want to build a longer relationship to be in deeper inquiry about their spiritual life.
