Spiritual Mentoring Certificate Program

Spiritual Mentoring offers the opportunity to hold another in a space of love, compassion, and acceptance as they seek to align with their own inner Divinity. A spiritual mentor creates a space in which a mentee will be seen, heard, and guided on their spiritual journey. This profound opportunity to guide another makes the mentoring process a sacred opportunity to sit with another and experience the Divine Beloved within the mentee.

In order to spiritually guide another in a safe and meaningful way, the mentor must be engaged in their own spiritual journey, though it need not be religious.

In this Certificate Program, we will explore our relationship with Spirituality and the practices that support our deepening experience of Presence, the foundation of Deep Listening. Through discussion and practice, we will hone our skills as listeners and guides, and explore the challenges that inhibit us from being the channels of Divine Guidance that we already are. We will also discuss the role and limits of being a Spiritual Mentor, and what inspires us to choose this path.

For those participants having a desire to set up a Spiritual Mentoring practice, a portion of this program will offer the opportunity to vision and design their practice.

This program, which is conferred by the Tree of Life Interfaith Temple, replaces the Spiritual Mentoring Certificate Program, formally created by Rev. Dr. Stephanie Rutt, and offered through the Tree of Life School for Sacred Living, LLC.
This 10 session Certificate Program is designed for ministers, clergy, and others in the helping professions who desire basic spiritual mentoring skills.
Through discussion and practical exploration, this program emphasizes:
  • Cultivating inner awareness as a mentor to act as a conduit for Divine guidance
  • Understanding the kinds of issues that can arise in a mentoring situation and how to skillfully meet and address them
  • Supporting a mentee in cultivating an intimate spiritual connection through self exploration and discovery
Participants are admitted into this program through an application process which includes both a written application and a telephone interview. ​
Recommended Reading: In Touch, John J. Prendergast, PhD and The Zen of Listening, Rebecca Z. Shafir. Additional readings will be included as appropriate.
Prerequisites: Applicants will demonstrate an active interest in spirituality and have engaged in a daily spiritual practice for a minimum of six months.  We understand these practices are unique and personal to each individual and care will be given to determine an appropriate fit for this program.
