Spiritual Direction.

Spiritual Direction is a private, sacred conversation about faith, about doubt, about life. 

I listen to your story, your questions, your desires, your struggles, and your hopes. And in the process, I look for (and find) threads of meaning, the weaving of God’s presence (even though it’s often seemed more like absence), and deep rivers of grace.

I share what I hear, see, and feel – all to help you hear, see, and feel the presence of the sacred in your story, in your relationships, in your work, in your spirit, in your heart, in your life.

You have stories to tell. I want to hear them. 
I have stories to offer. I want you to have them.

And all of this is held – safely and sacredly – within our relationship together.*

Ronna makes my relationship to my own spirituality tangible, somehow; in dialog with her I can imagine God as the benevolent presence I’ve always wanted him/her to be.  Nobody in my adult life has made me reconsider my own spirituality so provocatively and, ultimately, so productively.  Because of Ronna I can feel my own faith underneath me, a hammock, a support, and I’m immensely grateful for this.
~ Lindsey Mead Russell, A Design So Vast

Ronna is a modern-day demigoddess. Part-soul priestess, part-tenderhearted feminist, her words are a divine benediction to all who hear them. She has an instinctive knack for prising you open with the utmost compassion — and she helped me recognize my resistance to reconciling with the beliefs impressed on me throughout my childhood. Ronna is someone I trust implicitly & she is the perfect intermediary for this type of soul work.
~ Nikki Groom, Extraordinary Writing for Extraordinary Women

Our conversations together offer you:

• My undivided listening, my perspective, my heart on your behalf.
• Significant support that will invite movement, growth, and ever-deepening faith.
• Ways to help you discover and cherish the sacred/God in your everyday life. 
• Powerful stories that will come alongside you like the closest of friends, the truest of confidants, the most powerful reminders of God’s love. Ancient, sacred narratives of women. Mythic archetypes. Contemporary hero/ines. Strong souls in our midst.
• Deep, timeless processes and practices that will stay with you for a lifetime of inquiry, thought, and reflection.
• My undivided and enraptured attention. Unlimited email access all the time – and then some.

Because different people naturally respond and communicate in particular ways, I provide Spiritual Direction in two forms: 1:1 (via phone or in person) and/or through writing.

Talking to Ronna and having her feedback was like having a conversation with my soul. It was as if Ronna got inside of me and told me all the things I already knew somewhere deep inside. She manifested the voice of my inner self . . . I’m not sure how but she did! I guess it is a gift!  The gift of insight? Intuition? Spiritual connection? Call it what you will . . .Ronna is a queen, whether or not she is wearing her crown. ~ Sarah Sturino

If I could, I would allay your every fear and fill you up with overflowing confidence to step into these deep, rich conversations. I would speak some kind of prayer over you that would calm your every nerve and take away your every objection. I don’t say this for my sake; I say it for yours. Truly, Spiritual Direction is life-changing, heart-changing, world-changing. It would be privilege and gift for me to work with you, to hear your heart, and to offer you my own.
