Policy Statement for Spiritual Direction - Effective August 2007


August 1, 2007

It will be helpful and make our sessions more effective if you plan a silent sitting before and after our session. I also request, after the session, that you make a brief written summary of your immediate insights from our shared encounter. We will meet in person or by telephone. If by telephone, please call the number listed below.

The fee, $100 for a 50-55 minute session, is due before an appointment is schedule but will be fully reimbursed if cancellations are made at least 24 hours before the scheduled appointment time. The fee can also be modified for shorter sessions.

Make payments online via PayPal or credit card at http://www.citta101.org/donatespd.htm.You may also write a check or money order drawn on a US bank and mailed to the address below.

Please save a copy for your files and return a signed copy to me. If I have this letter, your fees will not increase when rates increase.

I understand that my payments cannot be considered a charitable donation and that Mary is a meditation teacher and spiritual director, not a therapist. My process leads the work, so I am free to accept or reject any suggestions Mary makes. Mary adheres to ethical guidelines of both the Spiritual Directors International and the Safe Harbor guidelines for Insight Meditation Teachers. Upon request, she will send me a pamphlet on ethics in Spiritual Direction and/or tell me how to order Safe Harbor, ethics for meditation teachers.
