The Next Chapter offers spiritual counseling that provides patient, caring listening for both new spiritual seekers and experienced spiritual practitioners who need a listening ear from someone who understands.  Despite having religious practices or spiritual disciplines, spiritual people encounter challenges just like anyone else.  Sometimes these challenges require the objective listening ear of someone who understands. 

Spiritual counseling does not involve delving into the past to rehash the old stories - although the past comes up sometimes.  Rather, spiritual counseling focuses on the future and on formulating goals and strategies that bring your spiritual practice to bear on your current life situation.  It involves using your spiritual discipline to help you make strategic decisions for your life.  Spiritual counseling is excellent for anyone who is spiritual or who wants to be spiritual and finds themselves going through a challenging time or being faced with a tough decision. 

The initial consultation is free and consists of a 15-20 minute phone conversation where you will be allowed to share your concern and come away with a tangible idea of the action steps necessary to get you back on your chosen path.

Raven Burnes is familiar with many different religions and metaphysical disciplines and has great respect for the many different ways God shows up in our hearts.  At The Next Chapter, there is no "separation between church and state", so to speak.  Your spiritual life is an important part of who you are and is a key component of the spiritual counseling session.
