Christian spiritual direction & faith formation for individuals & groups
~ offered in person or online ~
Could you use some hope?
Flourish spiritual direction & faith-based mentoring welcomes you to unhurried conversation where you can discover how to weave life-giving practices into everyday living. You are invited to process Christian faith questions, express doubts, name church hurt, or talk through whatever is keeping you from a full & integrated life. Experience compassionate space where you are seen, heard & understood without judgment in your steady journey toward hope.
How about some good change?
The over-busy pace of working & serving others can keep our minds & hearts over-full. Flourish assists churches, mission-driven organizations & higher education contexts to step back & envision good change. Have clarifying conversations & get support as you consider your ministry or workplace strategy and ways to best serve & support your people.

Hi, I’m Linda
I’ve spent decades walking alongside others as they consider their life, faith, values & habits.
My approach stems from Christian faith, though I will honor whatever your story entails including doubts, church hurt & faith reconstruction.
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.…Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
~ Jesus’ invitation found in Matthew 11:28-30 (The Message)
