Spiritual Direction
"Spiritual Direction is a form of pastoral counseling which focuses on a person's relationship with God, on a person's prayer life, in other words. If prayer is defined as conscious relationship with God, then you will talk with a spiritual director about what happens when you are conscious of God... He or she would be interested in your actual experience of God, not your speculations about God... The spiritual director wants to help you to become more aware of the relationship that already is and more articulate about your experience so that you will know how solid the bedrock of your prayer life is. You will then be helped to pay more attention to the Lord's communications to you and your own reactions to God and to life."
