"Spiritual Direction with Nicole has been an incredible experience. I've gone to counseling for several years but last year decided to give Spiritual Direction a try.

Nicole creates a safe space to share how I am coming in (what's going on in my mind, body, and soul). From there, I am able to experience a safe space to talk and process, while Nicole gently prompts and asks questions that help me to become more aware of the voice and presence of God. This is my favorite part of Spiritual Direction, and I think one of the main ways it differentiates from traditional therapy. I would highly recommend Spiritual Direction to those who want to incorporate the presence of the Holy Spirit into their work of personal growth and discovering more of who God has created them to be."

“Nicole is a true joy to work with. She planned two retreats for my group and also led us in a listening workshop.

Nicole’s presentations are always so well planned and thought out. You can tell she takes the time to make each aspect of the retreat meaningful and purposeful. Not only is she well prepared, she is an extremely gifted facilitator. She makes you feel so welcome and comfortable. Nicole is an incredible listener. You really feel seen and known when you talk with Nicole. She facilitates conversation so people feel confident to share. She asks excellent follow up questions. She creates an atmosphere where all are comfortable to participate in a way that is best for them. Nicole has a true gift and I am a better person because of my interactions with Nicole.”

“For me, culture, family dynamics, and religion kept me distanced from fully knowing my true identity in Christ. 

Of all the tools that we have been given here on Earth (counseling, medications, mindfulness and others) to work through physical and emotional pain, Spiritual Direction has allowed me to experience God's presence.  It has unlocked a path towards full integration of my mind, my body and my spirit, and has given me a new faith in God.

I look forward every month for my time with Nicole in Spiritual Direction. This time has been a breath of fresh air to sit and be with Jesus alongside someone I trust. It is not only a time to process what God is doing in and through me, but it is a time to "be" with Jesus, and receive and hear from the Lord in a way that I don't normally do. Nicole is fantastic at listening, being with me, and co-discerning what God might be saying in my life at that particular moment. It has been a gift I would recommend to anyone wanting to go to deeper waters with Jesus.”

“Nicole led our group through a workshop on spiritual listening, and it was such a gift! Nicole is a highly knowledgeable, warm, and empathetic facilitator. Her teaching is clear and engaging, and I really appreciated how hands-on it was!

I found Nicole’s explanation of God’s role vs our role in the context of spiritual listening particularly freeing and meaningful. This training equipped me with the skill and confidence I need to listen to others in a way that affirms their very being.”

“I have grown and learned so much through my monthly times of direction with Nicole. She gently opens space for me to process what God is saying to me.

She affirms truth and questions lies I may be believing. She asks intentional questions and leads me in prayer and being present with God each session. I’ve learned that it is so worthwhile to spend dedicated time to know myself and only helps me to see and know God better.  My time with Nicole has been incredibly valuable to me and I see spiritual direction being a practice that I continue or return to often in the future.”

“We had the opportunity to have Nicole lead us through two retreats for our group last year. She is incredibly organized and easy to communicate with.

She came in with a plan and executed it perfectly, leading our group of women through different areas of direction, relaxation and meditation, all while keeping us on time without ever making us feel rushed. Nicole is gifted at leading spiritual direction. She carries herself with a calming strength and has a way of making you feel known and listened to. Nicole is creative and supportive, she knew what our group would need and met those needs throughout our time with her, taking the time to speak with each woman as the morning went on.

When you meet Nicole you will know right away how relational and friendly she is. She has a true talent for making you feel welcome and at ease in her presence. We will absolutely ask Nicole to lead our group again as every one of the women in our group speaks so highly of the retreats. They were the highlights of our year.”

“Nicole models a warm and welcoming presence in her listening workshop.

The session she taught on spiritual listening has stuck with me ever since. She is an attentive and compassionate teacher who I would be eager to learn from again!"

“Nicole has been an instrumental part of my quieting myself before the Lord and finding His leading.

My spiritual life felt like a fragmented fog. I had a good practice of spiritual disciplines, but God and His light were obscured. I needed spiritual guidance for my personal journey; a time set apart with another Jesus follower whom I knew and trusted.

Nicole’s Spirit-led insight helped me confess secrets, share fears and reflect upon past traumas in a safe space that brought growth and freedom. Spiritual Direction is not therapy, rather it is from the heart of God to guide us through desert or wilderness experiences into green pastures and beside still waters”
