Spiritual guidance is an essential tool wherever you are in life.

Perhaps you are in the thick of parenting, and want to articulate your family values and create a values-based approach to family life.  Maybe you are deciding whether you want to bring kids into this world and what that might look like.  You might be at midlife and want to embrace the changes instead of the cultural norms of anti-aging or crisis.  Or, you could be in your later years and want to explore ways to be an elder and find comfort and stability amidst all the changes happening around you. 

You could be working a recovery program and looking to explore what a higher power means to you.  Perhaps you are struggling with your religious identity.  You may feel like there’s art inside you but don’t know how to let yourself be creative.  These are all portals, calling you to deeper meaning, a bigger purpose, and greater fulfillment.  I have no agenda but being midwife to the birth of your highest calling.  Viviam Pomeroy said, “May we encourage the secret struggle of every person.” Whatever your secret struggle is, I am here to companion you with presence, attentive listening, and curiosity.

Learn how to care for your soul.

One-on-one spiritual companionship is a practice that is thousands of years old. Together, we create a sacred space that offers: care for the soul, exploration of spiritual life, and the peace and luminosity that comes from remembering our inherent wholeness. With spiritual care, we reorient ourselves and begin at the center.

We often talk about ourselves as made up of body, mind, and soul. It is common to care for our bodies and minds.  In spiritual direction you learn how to care for the soul. When body, mind, and soul are cared for and integrated, we can show up more fully to our lives.

Hi, I’m Elizabeth Collard

We walk the path of growth together because although only you can do it, you can’t do it alone. Spiritual companionship is a sacred conversation between you, me, and the Divine Mystery.  My diverse background includes roles as a disability rights lawyer, mediator, yoga teacher, and I’m a mom to three school-aged kids, so I know what it means to live in this world and also want to explore a deeper and more meaningful existence.  When we carve out time to care for our souls, we encounter the rich and luminous life that has been there waiting all along.
