Services & Fees

​         I believe your ceremony should feel like you - 

Heartfelt, joyful, and full of meaning. As your officiant, I take the time to get to know your story so I can create a ceremony that feels personal and genuine, not something pulled from a template.

Whether you want something simple and sweet or a ceremony filled with readings, rituals, or family involvement, I’m here to help shape it in a way that feels natural and comfortable. I guide you through the wording, vows, and flow of the ceremony so you feel supported every step of the way.

My goal as your officiant, is to bring calm, warmth, and a steady presence to your celebration.

Travel Fees

The first 20 miles round‑trip from Friendship, ME are included; after that, travel is $0.75 per mile round‑trip.

If your ceremony is a quite a bit farther away — usually over two hours each way — or ends late in the evening, I may need to arrange an overnight stay for safety. If that’s ever the case, I’ll talk with you ahead of time and if agreed will simply add the actual lodging cost to your total. No surprises, no extra fees.

Who This Work Is For

Spiritual direction is for anyone longing for deeper connection—with themselves, with the sacred, with the land, or with the unfolding of their life. You do not need a particular belief system or spiritual background. You only need a willingness to listen inwardly and to show up as you are.  Spiritual Direction is not a replacement for therapy.

Sessions last 50-60 minutes

Earth-based Mentorship

Coming in the Future

This mentorship is being created for those who feel called to walk a nature‑honoring path and want guidance rooted in lived practice. Whether you’re beginning your journey in earth-based spirituality, folk-based spirituality, or seeking to deepen long‑held practices, this offering will weave together seasonal rhythms, elemental wisdom, ritual skills, and relationship with the land. It will be shaped by the coastal forests, tides, and changing light of Midcoast Maine. If you’re interested in joining the first circle of students, you’re welcome to reach out through my contact page.
