Individual Spiritual Direction
Individual spiritual direction is available with advance reservations (72 hour notice). The dates and time for individual direction are agreed upon between the director and the directee. Sessions are normally scheduled for approximately 45-50 minutes per session.
To be considered for individual spiritual direction a potential directee must either participate in a) one group spiritual direction session, or b) successfully complete one (1) introductory session with the director. The primary purpose for this condition is to mutually determine if spiritual direction is potentially beneficial for the directee and helpful for their personal management of scrupulosity.
Please Note:
- ALL SESSIONS are referenced in eastern time (New York, USA). It is your responsibility to make the necessary adjustment.
- Appointments begin on time. If you are unable to make your scheduled appointment, please cancel in advance.
- If you are late for your appointment the spiritual director will wait for 10 minutes after which the session will be terminated.
All sessions are hosted through Zoom for both individual and group spiritual direction. You will receive the Zoom link in your email 2 or 3 days in advance. If you do not receive the requested link, please send an email to managingscrupulosity@liguori.org immediately so that the error may be remedied.
Group Spiritual Direction
The dynamics of group spiritual direction are both appropriate and supportive for most people who suffer with the scrupulous disorder. The sessions are a time of honest sharing and caring. The presences of a supportive group of men and women who understand your torment, because of their own experience with the disorder, is extremely helpful and healing. As the group forms and matures the level of trust and vulnerability is evident and appreciated.
Group spiritual direction takes place within a designated 90-minute ZOOM session, once each month. You must reserve your place to participate in the session. If you are a premium member of PATREON, your participation is included in your membership (you must inform us of your choice). If you are not a PATREON member there is a suggested stipend for the session. Provisions are made for those who are unable to pay the suggested stipend.
