Are you feeling lost or in need of a compassionate listener? Are you seeking to explore new spiritual practices, let go of old ones, or discover entirely new paths? If so, a spiritual direction session combined with a somatic release through archery may be what you need.
 
As a spiritual director, I engage nature, physicality, and mind-body connection to help release what might be stuck in our bodies. Like traditional spiritual direction, our outdoor archery session will involve talking, listening, checking in with the body, and releasing tension and weight we carry. This is a 2-hour session including target making, archery instruction, and lot's of shooting.
 
For those raised in religious traditions that left them feeling empty, traumatized, isolated, and disconnected from their bodies, Soul Care with Archery provides a safe space to unravel, dismantle, and express rage – even shooting at it if needed. It's a judgment-free zone to reflect on your journey and where you want to go.
 
I offer unhurried sessions focused on therapeutic listening and a true presence. Once ready, email me to schedule a time that works for your needs. With a Master's in Spiritual Formation from Portland Seminary, certification in spiritual direction from George Fox University, training in Supervision from Lucy Abbott Tucker, and as a Level 1 Archery Instructor, I approach this work holistically.
 
As a queer spiritual director (she/they pronouns), I wholly affirm LGBTQIA+ identities and viewpoints. I have specific training in deconstructing and reconstructing faith/church traditions, trauma-informed care related to sexual assault, domestic violence, and other abuses. My approach is grounded in honoring diversity, equity, inclusion, and intersectional feminism.
