In our busy, modern world, it is important to stay in touch with the riches of religious ritual. In times of celebration and loss, challenge and transition, rituals guide us and bring meaning to our lives. One way of living Jewishly is to honor life’s key moments.

Everyone is unique and experiences the highs and lows of their journey in different ways.

We partner with you to personalize these meaningful moments. We offer traditional and innovative approaches to life cycle events such as weddings and funerals, b’nei mitzvah, bris and baby naming, and conversion.

And . . .

Any moment can become a transformational experience when infused with ritual. We work with you to recognize the many other important passages in life, like a new job, adoption, pregnancy loss, divorce, gender transition, fertility treatment, entering a new age/stage of life, and moments we have yet to dream up.

Whether letting go or inviting in the new, we are here to guide you through the process.

Humans are multidimensional beings. We have physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs. We go to different healthcare providers for physical and emotional support, but we often neglect our spiritual nature. We now know about the mind-body connection, and understand that feelings and thoughts impact our bodies. Our culture often minimizes the effects of sadness and loss on our well-being. Additionally, we often ignore the power of joy, love, and wonder, and the possibility for transformation.

Imagine the wholeness and harmony we could experience if we paid equal attention to our spiritual selves.

With Jewish tradition as our anchor, we help you explore and develop your spiritual life through pastoral counseling and hashpa’ah (spiritual direction). These kinds of spiritual care promote healing and growth through deep listening, empathy, and empowerment. We provide a spiritual framework for your unique journey using prayer, ritual, meditation, chant, text study, and art. We accompany you in spaces that are safe and accessible, virtual and in person.

Jewish tradition presents many ways for us to tune into our inner selves. We offer spiritual care through pastoral counseling and haspha’ah (spiritual direction).
