She applies skills developed in the corporate world to assist ministers facing challenges in their call or congregations, to understand situational congregation dynamics, to explore options for alternative ministry and to discernment for the direction of the call. Her ministry is assisting clergy in crisis. First, by providing a confidential listener and then assisting them in skill-building, discernment and situation assessment.
Other service areas are discernment of where the Spirit is leading their calling and discovering options in alternative ministry. If a minister has decided to leave active ministry, services offered are training to determine translatable skills for a secular marketplace, resume development, interview training and transitional career coaching.
