Building mental fitness to respond to life's challenges with a "sage" perspective rather than stress.
An ancient practice of "holy listening"—noticing God's presence and movement in your daily story.
Your journey begins with awareness. Simply email me to request your free Saboteur Assessment, which identifies the specific mental habits currently holding you back.
After you receive the results from the assessment, you have the opportunity to schedule a free Saboteur discovery session. This is where you gain a deeper understanding of how your specific saboteurs cause stress and anxiety, and discover exactly how they are impacting your wellbeing, performance, and relationships.
This is an intensive period of building the mental muscles needed for lasting change. You move from Saboteur to Sage through consistent daily practice and personalized coaching.
You transition into a new way of living, characterized by clear-headed action, sustainable resilience, and a deeper sense of internal calm.
You begin by creating the quiet space necessary to notice where you are thirsty and where you feel God is currently calling you.
You participate in regular, monthly sessions where your daily story is explored with prayerful curiosity and attentive listening.
Over time, you develop a "listening heart," becoming more sensitive to the Spirit's invitations in the ordinary moments of your life.
Mental Fitness Coach • Spiritual Director
I’ve spent decades walking with people through transitions, burnout, and spiritual questions. My work blends coaching clarity with deep spiritual attentiveness.
We focus on small steps, honest reflection, and noticing what God is doing in your life. The goal is always a more grounded and courageous way of living.
"As a pastor in my first appointment, conversations with David have given me focus, grounding, and much-needed opportunities to step back and see the big picture of ministry. I appreciate how he asks thoughtful questions that really make me pause and reflect on my calling, and I would recommend this style of coaching to anyone discerning what real partnership with God looks like."
"I wasn't sure what to expect when I entered into a coaching relationship with David... David has encouraged me to explore and find answers within my own experience, while gently offering suggestions that might be helpful or useful. Helping to move me from 'what I thought I knew' to what God is leading me to know and experience. Not only has my perspective changed, my comfort level with major decisions has expanded."
"David has a knack for drawing out my intuitions, helping me to verbalize them, and then inviting me to intentionally formulate a plan. He is a coach that helps me to listen to my own heart and to God, and who seldom permits his own viewpoint to get in the way. David is a coach in the truest sense of the term. He summons our best qualities to the game."
Sessions are most often held conveniently via Google Meet. This allows us to connect effectively regardless of where you are located.
Mental Fitness Coaching is structured and focuses on mental habit formation to help you respond to challenges with a "sage" perspective rather than stress. Spiritual Direction is an ancient practice of "holy listening"—paying attention to God’s movement in your story.
The best way to start is a free discovery conversation. We’ll spend 20-30 minutes talking about what’s on your heart and see which path—or blend of paths—feels right for you right now.
I believe growth should be accessible. I offer professional rates but keep a heart for ministry. Sliding scale is available, especially for clergy and those in ministry.
Tell me what you’re hoping will be different. We’ll decide the next step together.
