 “From our first meeting last fall till now, I have gained confidence to be brave and do hard things;  experienced peace that has given me the ability to fall asleep quickly after years of insomnia; learned to notice who I really am and to like myself; experienced the gift of the Holy Spirit working through me and loving me as I live my daily life and also as I do things out of the ordinary; and, I have learned to remember that God loves me just as I am.”

“This experience was genuinely far beyond what I expected and truly brought deep spiritual change within me.”

“I went into spiritual direction thinking it would be just another person to help me verbally process, and I was pleasantly surprised that it was so much more than that–and that Jess’ particular expertise with holistic awareness helped me make better sense of what I wanted to say verbally.”

“Jess has a great understanding of spiritual development, which I particularly appreciated because I came into spiritual direction feeling guilty for “not praying” as much as I used to. She was so understanding about this and also helped me see that there are other kinds of prayer than what I had been doing. I came in thinking there might be something wrong with my connection with God, and I was so grateful to Jess for showing me that God is still so present in my life even if that looks different than it used to.”
