About Sarah

Sarah Lyon

I am a published writer, and spiritual director with a Masters degree in Psychotherapy from the University of Cambridge, UK where my research dissertation was on the practice of taking therapy outdoors. I was awarded an honors for my Masters dissertation—an exploration of practicing therapy with the natural world in mind; a narrative inquiry. I continue to be immersed in learning and research opportunities with particular attention to EcoSpiritual Direction.

As an alum of the Pacific Jubilee Program for spiritual direction and as a current member of Spiritual Directors International I continue to be informed and learn from an array of resources through Pacific Jubilee, the Vancouver School of Theology, St Dunstan’s Center for Spiritual Renewal and Spiritual Directors International. 

Christianity is my spiritual holding although it is important to know that this does not limit my understanding of other faith traditions and how I continue to be enriched by them. However you may experience the Holy, I invite you to reach out and connect with me. 

Canadian born, I live in Bragg Creek, on the outer SW edge of Calgary, Alberta where I integrate my love of story writing and inquiry with my love for food, psychotherapy, spiritual direction and nature connecting activities to guide others towards new levels of inner and outer awareness.
