Spiritual Direction
with Michelle Cassandra Johnson
Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.
Many people seek an explanation for the events that occur within and around them. Often, this involves contemplating the role Spirit plays in their lives and in the larger ecosphere.
If we wish to stay grounded within ourselves, having a non-judgmental space to contemplate, ask questions, soul-search, and reconnect and deepen our relationship with Spirit is essential.
ARE YOU:
curious about how to care for yourself and others during this time?
interested in deepening your relationship with yourself and Spirit?
wishing to feel more grounded within yourself and that which is bigger than you?
desiring an exploration of the intersection of activism and spiritual practice?
yearning to recall our connection to everything?
craving to make space for both grief and joy within your life and community?
intrigued by which rituals and ceremonies can support you and others now?
WHY THIS WORK NOW?
Spiritual Direction is a profoundly relational contemplative practice that draws from a myriad of spiritual traditions and lineages.
It is a practice that allows questions to be surfaced and centered on Spirit and oneself; it is a space to sit in curiosity and not-knowing, and, through discernment, to bring greater clarity to one’s life. It is a space to explore sacred activism and our various roles in response to what is unfolding within and around us.

Spiritual Direction is a vast field designed to meet you where you are.
MY OWN JOURNEY
I’ve experienced Spirit in many forms, and at times in the formless—that which I cannot see or touch, but that which can be felt. I have many names for Spirit—Goddess, the Divine, Mother, Mary Magdalene, Water, Sun, Moon, Stars, God, and more.
Spirit comes in many forms.
I am a spiritual teacher, spiritual director and companion, author, activist, grief doula, shamanic healer, and facilitator, offering a range of healing arts services. In 2024, I expanded my support services for myself, others, and the community to include Spiritual Direction and Companionship. I trained as a Spiritual Director through the Spiritual Guidance Training Institute.
Before my training there, for over two decades, I worked as a clinical social worker, which gave me a substantial grounding to meet people exactly where and how they desired to be met.
ABOUT MICHELLE
What I love about Spiritual Direction and Companionship is the spaciousness it provides for myself as a guide and the seekers who trust me enough to allow me to be their guide. I show up authentically and invite seekers to do the same.
MY APPROACH
I listen. I offer space for healing. I provide rituals and mantras. When desired, I offer silence. I offer guidance, and I support seekers as they reconnect with their intuition and internal wisdom. I work with discomfort and look for opportunities to create ease. I ask questions. I sit in the not-knowing. I celebrate seekers for their bravery, because any journey of healing takes great courage. I invite Spirit to move through me and to move with myself and the seeker.
SPIRITUAL DIRECTION IS FOR:
seekers who are curious about what role Spirit can play in their lives
those who are committed to a spiritual practice and wish to deepen it
activists who desire more spiritual grounding
spiritual leaders and individuals interested in sacred activism
people who wish to heal within community
seekers who want to add rituals to their toolbox of support
seekers who are interspiritual and draw from various spiritual lineages

FAQs
What happens in a Spiritual Direction session?
Each session is different and shaped by you. We might begin with a grounding practice, followed by space for reflection, silence, or conversation. I’ll listen deeply and may offer questions, rituals, mantras, or moments of stillness. Spirit is always welcome.
What’s the difference between therapy or coaching and Spiritual Direction?
Spiritual Direction is not therapy, and it’s not coaching. While my background includes clinical social work, this space is not diagnostic or treatment-based. It's contemplative and relational—a place to sit with the mysteries, ask questions, and explore meaning.
How often do we meet?
Most people meet with me monthly or bi-weekly. We’ll co-create a rhythm that feels supportive and sustainable for you.
Do I have to follow a specific religion or tradition?
No. I welcome seekers from all (or no) faith traditions. My work is interspiritual, grounded in reverence for many lineages. You don’t need to believe in anything in particular—only a desire to connect more deeply.
What if I don’t know what to say?
That’s completely okay. There is no pressure to perform or be “spiritually fluent.” Silence is sacred. Not-knowing is welcome. I will meet you where you are.
Do you offer sliding scale or flexible pricing?
Yes. I believe this work should be accessible. I offer a sliding scale pricing structure and invite you to choose what feels most aligned with your financial reality. (You can read more here—or feel free to reach out.)
