Environmental Chaplaincy

chaplain services

What is eco chaplaincy? Eco chaplaincy is a form of spiritual care that supports people to turn towards socio-environmental difficulty with greater compassion and wisdom. The practice of eco chaplaincy acknowledges that globally we are in difficult and dire times. Increasingly we are hearing the call of a planet in crisis and seeking meaningful ways to make sense of and respond wisely to the suffering we are encountering across species, ecologies and communities. Eco chaplains support us to remember our belonging and connection with all of life.

In my work as an earth chaplain, I hold an open, non-directive space for emotional and spiritual support. Drawing on the wisdom of our more than human kin, I accompany you to navigate questions of meaning and purpose embedded in the complexity of ecological loss and uncertainty. Anxiety, grief, confusion, despair, curiosity, delight, hope… Whatever arises is welcome and accompanied with respectful, confidential and sacred presence.

You do not need to identify as spiritual or religious. I meet you wherever you are. With spacious, compassionate attention, together we explore the unfolding of skillful response to the challenge and opportunity present during this rapidly evolving time of ecological, environmental, and social upheaval.
