Meet Traci Arends

Traci is accepting new directees.

Have you ever been paralyzed by fear or allowed shame to dictate your decisions? I can relate, and I also believe we are loved beyond measure.

Are you hungry for courageous decision-making and freedom from limiting beliefs? I believe God desires that for all of us; to live in fullness.

I consider it a privilege to walk alongside Directees as they explore their deepest longings. Deep listening hears more than what is spoken, and it is a critical part of the role of a spiritual director.

My worldview is anchored in Ignatian Spirituality and seeing God in all things. While I cannot provide answers, I am honored to hear you and ask questions that support Directees finding their way to the fullness God desires. From childhood, I was raised Baptist/Evangelical. Today I identify as Christian Catholic. I have experience in domestic violence, trauma, spiritual abuse, addiction, abusive marriage, blended families, grief, and loss.

I see people via Zoom or in person at Carondelet Center.
