About Me
My introduction to spiritual direction came during the pandemic when I was struggling to cope with loneliness and leadership overseas. I didn't know what help I needed and monthly direction gradually became a space to be heard and to receive God's unconditional love and presence. Through direction I found safety to express my desires and fears and found that Jesus really is gentle and lowly and his burden light.
I had a background in urban local community ministry and primary education before sensing an invitation from God to explore cross cultural ministry overseas and from 2016-2021 I lived in East Africa. I returned unexpectedly in 2021 having experienced a personal crisis and burnout. Training with ‘Deepen’, the two-year Relational Spiritual Formation course run by Novo, was a big part of healing from burnout and equipping me to bless others with the gift of prayerful listening. I am excited to be offering this ministry to other cross cultural workers, weary and heavy laden, or rejoicing in the paths laid out for them and any place in between. It is a joy and privilege to witness God - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - gently drawing alongside as I listen and ask questions. Your life story is holy ground.
I also work part-time as a teaching assistant with special educational needs children in a local primary school. I am a long-term active member of an Anglican church. I am in my late 40s, single and enjoy being a Godmother, aunt, sister, daughter and friend. Painting, thankfulness and walks in beautiful places help me to notice God and to receive from him.
