About Me - Spiritual Director, Enneagram Practitioner & Coach

I have been described as a gentle and wise spiritual director. I serve those who desire to know God more deeply. I study the Catholic mystics, explore prayer and discernment, and use my enneagram knowledge - all to enrich my spiritual life and share with others. 


I meet with people for Spiritual Direction on Zoom or at Ignatius House in Atlanta, GA. I am a member of St. Andrews Catholic Church in Roswell, GA. I was raised in the Protestant tradition in Louisiana.  


I follow the Ethical Guidelines of Spiritual Direction and meet regularly with my own spiritual director and periodically meet with a supervisor.

reviews

Mary's kind, caring, and patient nature made the challenging inner odyssey of The Spiritual Exercises an ultimately uplifting experience. While this journey does ask one to delve into their darker aspects, the light on the other side of this trek is assured and bright, and having Mary join me on that journey was like always having a lantern in the dark, guiding me down the path.

 I was at Adoration tonight reading through some of the entries I had written in my spiritual journal in the last year, and my work with you has made a huge difference in knowing myself and in my relationship to God. You have a real gift for guidance!  I have gained so much from my time with you.

Spiritual direction has been a source of inspiration and growth in my spiritual life which has spilled over into my physical and mental health as well. My prayer life has changed significantly as I have drawn closer to God. I am a better version of myself and I am able to share this with others. What a gift it has been!

 Spiritual Direction has been a special blessing on my faith journey. I have been guided to several books and other resources that have significantly impacted my prayer life. I have been given “food for thought” that has deepened my spiritual awareness. I am grateful  that I was led to seek out a Spiritual Director, and graced to find Mary Maio.
