Julie Merritt Lee (she/her) tracks wonder, laps up words, and finds the numinous in the landscape of loss. She is a spiritual companion, helping people through their own “alchemy of heartbreak,” discernment, spiritual malaise or liminal space that wants expression. She uses various modalities in her work including writing, dream work, and body movement to name a few. Her formal training includes a BA in English and a Masters of Divinity. She is also a graduate of the Haden Institute’s Dream Work Training and Spiritual Direction Training programs. As a former pastor in Hendersonville, Julie started a feeding program where a guest recounted every week that “Jesus walks the woodline.” Julie is still walking the woodline looking for Jesus and finds herself closest to the Holy in a hammock. Her current passion is working for PathLights (www.wearepathlights.com) where she teaches a trauma-informed, holistic path through loss.
