We recommend our Gathered Community "covenant" spiritual directors.  Each one has agreed to live by a Rhythm and Rule of Life that includes following the Ethical Guidelines of Spiritual Directors International.  Click on the "+" for a spiritual director to reveal contact information in a drop down box.

PLEASE NOTE: We have a number of additional spiritual directors who prefer not to publish their contact information and have relationships with different networks of ethically practicing spiritual directors, so If you would like personal help finding a spiritual director, contact us via our Contact Form

If you are a trained spiritual director and would like to explore becoming one of our covenant spiritual directors, take this LINK ​for information & registration.  If you want more information contact us via our Contact Form
