Spiritual Direction

This is an opportunity to talk one-to-one in complete confidence,
within the context of our faith.

Chris is a spiritual director of many years experience, but prefers the title of Anam Cara.  The role of an Anam Cara goes back to Celtic times. Literally a Soul Friend, an Anam Cara has spent some years training to explore problems with you, in confidence. For people of faith, all problems have a spiritual component. An Anam Cara approaches you as a whole person, dealing with problems whether they be social, physical, mental or spiritual. Most problems are a combination of two or more of these! On your own, you can go round and round in circles, trying to make an important decision or looking for a way forward through times of anger, frustration, loneliness, stress, dryness in prayer etc. Talking with your Anam Cara can provide the support to hack your way through the brambles of life. Chris has trained in Celtic, Franciscan, Carmelite, Ignatian and Julian spiritualities and brings all these to the table to help you where you are. No answers are provided, but a number of possible ways forward will be offered.

Some people come for one session of up to an hour, some people come regularly - once a week or once a month.

Listening Ear

Chris also offers a 'listening ear' for those who would prefer to talk without reference to God or the Bible.
