Spiritual Direction
Spiritual direction is a reflective practice that helps you notice and respond to the presence of God in your life. Through gentle conversation and deep listening, a trained spiritual director offers companionship on your journey of faith, doubt, and discovery.
Meet Carla Rousseau
Spiritual Director + Story Coach
It has taken time, healing work, and the steady love and safety of others to begin finding, accepting, liking, and believing in who I am. While that journey is still unfolding, I’ve learned to better live from my centered self—and in that place, I’ve begun to experience peace, joy, and a deeper sense of purpose. It’s a sacred honor and part of that purpose to companion others as they navigate their own path toward fullness.
I bring five years of experience offering one-on-one spiritual direction. I’ve also facilitated and participated in retreats and workshops focused on emotional healing, spiritual restoration, and formation. My work weaves together spiritual direction, story work coaching, trauma-informed care, and restorative practices—each shaping the way I hold sacred space for others. I offer a compassionate listening presence and gentle care whether meeting individually, in small groups, or in retreat settings.
I believe each of us is created by the Divine with beautiful uniqueness, carrying an appointed piece of God into the world. Pain and trauma often blocks access to that sacred self. My hope is to offer attunement, kind curiosity, and with-ness so others can reclaim their path—even when it feels dark—and live more fully into their unique purpose and personhood.
