Carolyn serves on the Soul Shepherding staff as Data and Content Manager, and as a Spiritual Director and Coach. She brings years of experience as a women’s ministry leader, mentor, and youth leader, along with a deep heart for walking with others in their spiritual journey.

She holds Soul Shepherding Certificates in Spiritual Direction and Coaching and is a CiRCE Certified Classical Teacher.

As a pastor’s wife, pastor’s kid, and missionary kid who spent part of her teen years overseas, Carolyn understands firsthand the unique joys and challenges of ministry life. Her own journey of healing from childhood wounds and church conflict has stirred in her a deep passion to help others experience the love of Abba and His delight in them.

Spiritual direction has been life-changing for Carolyn. Through it, she’s grown in emotional honesty, self-awareness, and the freedom of living from her secure identity in Christ—rather than from people-pleasing or performance.

She lives in beautiful central Maine with her husband and their three homeschooled teenagers. A devoted cat lover, Carolyn enjoys laughing, reading, teaching, going for long walks, and sharing meaningful conversations with friends over coffee.
