THE HEALING COLLECTIVE

CENTER FOR SPIRITUAL FORMATION

Group Spiritual Direction

In a world that never slows down, where chaos around and within demand near constant attention, time and space for quiet reflection often feel like a luxury. But the truth is that the world desperately needs human beings who are centered and grounded, awake to themselves and to Spirit’s work within them. Spiritual direction nurtures this kind of posture—a sacred pause in the midst of the noise, a chance to reflect, listen, and notice. 

As part of our mission to participate in the healing of all things, The Healing Collective offers small-group spiritual direction led by Dr. Mallory Wyckoff. Sessions include both individual and group sharing and discernment in a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere.

Together, Mallory and participants create a space where one can:

  • Embrace stillness amidst chaos

  • Name one’s thoughts, questions, and desires freely and fully

  • Notice Spirit’s movements within

  • Connect deeply with Self and with God

  • Honor one’s inner knowing 

  • Practice discernment in loving community 

  • Learn attentive listening skills

In each session, participants are gently led in exploring their spiritual lives, while also benefiting from the insights of the group. With a slow, unhurried pacing, space is held for each person to reflect on their journey without rushing, without distraction, without fear.
