Cermonialist: Weddings, Births, Memorials, Divorce, Home Blessings

In a relaxed, accepting, and creative space, I facilitate the creation of Ceremonies that reflect the spirit of individuals and the unique, important Life Transition they are honoring.

By asking questions and listening deeply, I encourage reflection that easily allows an authentic expression of each person’s values, needs, and intentions, thus creating Ceremonies that are filled with personal relevance and vitality.

COUNSELOR:

As an ordained Multi Faith Minister, and Elder, I am honored to provide grounded, wise, Spirit based counsel to those feeling the need in their life for a mentor or guide. In my work I draw on the teachings of Non– Violent Communication, the Enneagram, Buddhist Loving kindness practice, and the compassionate, transformative power of Awareness; of Body, Mind, and Emotions. I find personal inspiration through my connection to Nature and my sense of belonging within community.

History

Established in 1988.

I was ordained as a Minister in the Universal Church of The Master in 1988, following three years of study and preparation. Since my ordination,

my work as a Ceremonialist has grown and evolved… just as I have! I understand, ever more deeply, the profound need that humans have to find meaningful ways to honor the, often mysterious, forces at play within their lives. The power of Love, the sacredness and promise of new life, the importance of honoring Beginnings… and Endings… I value, more than ever, the sense of belonging that participation in meaningful Ceremony can provide and nurture within people.

I have led on going Women’s circle’s focused on spiritual growth, Mediation and Mindfulness classes, and work with individuals in support of their happiness and awakening. I am deeply grateful to be of service to my community in these ways.

Raised in the S.F. bay area, I consider myself fortunate to have grown up in such an open minded atmosphere. I am blessed to be doing what I love for my work in the world! My Ceremonial and Counseling work are an extension of who I am; what i find of most importance in life.

i studied business (my mother’s urging!) in college, and left before completing my degree. I became a mother at 24, again at 27. In my 40’s I discovered a new, exciting path: Massage Therapy! I excelled at it, and began teaching at a holistic health center. I taught for over 20 years, while at the same time I was called to study for ordination into the Ministry. At different junctures in my life, I have followed the teachings of the Christian path, the Native american/​Nature path, the Hindu and Buddhist Paths. Each «Way» has given me a piece of the puzzle so I might live more fully, happily, and wisely in this life. I am a lover of Poetry, memorizing and reciting in the oral Tradition. Ah, yes, 2 grandKids!
