Non-religious Spiritual Direction
One on one non-religious spiritual direction
What is the difference between non-religious spiritual direction and traditional spiritual direction?

What is the difference between spiritual direction and non-religious spiritual direction? As you might imagine, non-religious spiritual direction provides companionship and resources that lie outside of rigid religious dogma. Non-religious spiritual direction allows you to ask questions in a nonjudgmental setting. Are there topics that you are curious about but never had the opportunity to explore?
​
The process of leaving behind old, outdated religious beliefs and replacing them with new spiritual beliefs is often referred to as Deconstruction and Reconstruction. As a non-religious spiritual director, I can explain the journey through deconstruction and reconstruction. Millions of others have taken that journey. The problem is that it is always a personal journey. And that can make it lonely and a bit scarry.
​
Working one on one with you, I act as a guide through what may seem like a strange, new, secular world. The transition from a close-knit faith-based community to a wide-open secular world may be a bit overwhelming. Others have done it, and you can too.
​
When working with individuals who are deconstructing, the number one issue that they encounter seems to be a loss of community. Establishing a trusted relationship with a spiritual director is a first step in finding a new community. I help individuals understand how they can connect with new communities.
