How I Do Spiritual Direction

My Sessions Are Contemplative

I guide my clients in slowing down and becoming more non-anxious and non-reactive.

Our work will be Enneagram Focused.

The Enneagram can assist you in becoming self-aware and provide the tools necessary to progress on your journey.

I Help You in Making Self-Discoveries

I pose challenging questions that open the door to new possibilities and ideas.

You don’t have to fear the transitional space between where you were and where you are headed.

Calm Waters journeys alongside you in your life transition.

● Move forward on your path of self-discovery

● Learn a way of “being” that is non-anxious & non-reactive by engaging in contemplative practices

● Unlock truths about yourself and your spirituality

● Move toward making choices that reflect your own spirituality

● Improve your understanding of who God is to you and who you are to God.

We believe you can find a new path in hope, purpose and direction for this transition of life.

Hi, I’m Rick,

As a spiritual director, I guide others through meaningful life transitions, especially into life’s second half. When you’re uncertain about your path and have no one to ask the tough questions, I create sacred space with questions of self-discovery that help you discern God’s movement, so you can find your way forward

What clients say about working with Rick

  • “I felt pretty lost and confused when I met Rick.

    He helped me find solace and peace while I struggled with some really difficult decisions. He not only listened to me, he heard me. I greatly appreciated the safe space he created, and the deeply meaningful prayers on my behalf. I definitely grew personally and spiritually in his presence.”

  • “I have enjoyed having Rick as a Spiritual Director for the past 6 months.

    When we began meeting, I knew only that he was a retired pastor whose background was a little different from mine, and I looked forward to learning from his experiences. Since then I have found that he is deeply in love with the Trinity, and that love flavors everything he does. Rick has challenged me to rethink who I am in light of who God is and who He says I am. As I acknowledge the grace that God offers me, I become more able to love people as they are: created in God's image and in need of the same grace that I am so glad to receive myself. Rick's passion for following Jesus has been an inspiration to me as he continues to call me into a deeper walk with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.”

  • “Rick has been a help to me in staying connected to the depths

    In our work I have been looking deeply into the challenges of my life and ministry. I am grateful for his wisdom, sensitivity, understanding, and care. Thank you, Rick!”
