I am honored
you found your way
to this page.
Whatever brought you here, I want you to know that you are in the right place.
My name is Swaady, and it is my deepest privilege to walk alongside people in their relationship with God. I am here for you, in this season of your life, for whatever you are carrying.
ONE-ON-ONE SPIRITUAL ACCOMPANIMENT WITH SWAADY MARTIN — ROOTED IN CHRISTIAN CONTEMPLATIVE WISDOM, OPEN TO SINCERE SEEKERS OF ALL PATHS. FOR THOSE NAVIGATING A TURNING POINT, A DIFFICULT SEASON, OR A HUNGER TO KNOW GOD MORE DEEPLY.A WORD FROM SWAADYI am here for you,
in this season.
Whatever brought you to this page, I receive you with care. You may be at a turning point, feeling a longing for God that you have not known how to name. You may be in the middle of something difficult, a loss, a crisis, a season of grief or confusion, and you sense that what you need is someone who can hold space with a spiritual depth that goes beyond what ordinary support can offer. You may have been on this path for many years and are simply ready to go deeper, with a guide who has walked it seriously and for a long time.
All of these are welcome here. I have been accompanying people in their spiritual lives for fifteen years, across five continents and every imaginable circumstance. People have found me in some of the most tender and sacred moments of their lives, and it has always been my absolute honor to be entrusted with their stories.
I bring to this work nearly three decades of personal spiritual practice, rooted in Christian contemplative wisdom and shaped by genuine encounter with many of the world's great wisdom traditions. I am formally trained as a spiritual director. And more than anything I bring a deep, unhurried attentiveness to whoever is in front of me, and a trust that God is already at work in everything you are carrying, including the parts that feel most confusing or most broken.
This is your journey. I am simply here to walk alongside you.
With love and care,
Swaady
"You have been an integral thread in my journey towards myself. At some of my most critical times of transition, shedding, and growth, you have been a clear reflection of light and love inside me."

WHAT I OFFER
Two ways I can
walk alongside you.
Both offerings are one-on-one, online, and held in the same spirit of confidentiality, care, and genuine presence. The difference is in what you are carrying and what kind of support feels right for where you are.
◈ FOR THE LONG JOURNEY
Spiritual Direction
Spiritual direction is the ancient practice of learning to hear God's voice in your own life. Together, we listen to your life, your prayer, your longings, and your questions, and we seek the thread of the sacred running through all of it. I am trained in the Ignatian tradition of discernment, which understands that God speaks through the movements of our inner life, through consolation and desolation, through desire and resistance, through the events of our days. In our sessions I offer you an unhurried, attentive presence, and a gentle companionship in the art of listening to God.
You want to deepen your prayer life and your relationship with God
You feel called to something but cannot yet name it clearly
You are navigating a season of spiritual growth or significant transition
You want to develop your capacity for discernment, hearing and following God's voice
You are ready to engage your faith seriously and with genuine intention
◈ FOR THE HARD SEASON
Spiritual Counseling
Spiritual counseling is for those in the middle of something difficult. A crisis, a loss, a relationship that has ruptured, a period of confusion or grief, a season where the ground has shifted beneath you. While therapy addresses the psychological dimensions of our struggles, spiritual counseling brings the sacred lens: What might God be doing here? What is this season asking of you? How do you find your footing again, and how do you carry what you are carrying with grace? I offer you honest, engaged, compassionate accompaniment, rooted in the deep conviction that God is present even in the hardest places, and that nothing you are facing is outside the reach of grace.
You are in a crisis and need grounded, spiritually informed support
You are grieving and need someone who can hold space with depth and prayer
You feel spiritually lost or dry and need help finding your way back to God
You are facing a major decision and need clarity and discernment
You need someone who will speak the truth to you with love and without judgment
WHO I WALK WITHYou are welcome here,
wherever you are on the path.
I work with people of all backgrounds, traditions, and life stages.
My foundation is Christian and contemplative, and I am deeply interfaith fluent, having practiced within many of the world's great wisdom traditions.
What matters to me is not the label you carry or the certainty of your faith, but the sincerity of your search and your willingness to show up honestly.
If you feel the pull toward God and you are ready to move toward it with intention, I am here for you.
You feel pulled toward God and are ready to move toward that pull with intention and commitment.
You have a sense of calling you cannot yet name, and you need a companion to help you listen for it.
Your prayer life has grown dry or rote, and you long for it to come alive again in a way that is real and lasting.
You are going through something hard and need more than advice. You need someone who brings God into the room.
You feel spiritually alone, with no guide and no community, and you are ready to walk with someone who has gone ahead.
You are at a crossroads and need discernment rooted in God rather than simply more information or advice.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECTWhat I bring
to every session.
Every session is held in a spirit of confidentiality, reverence, and genuine care. I come to each one with my full attention and with a prayer that what God wants to do in your life would find the space it needs. Here is what you can count on.
01 A space that is fully yours
You bring what is on your heart. There is no agenda, no performance, nothing you need to have figured out in advance. I simply receive what you bring with care and without judgment.
02 Attentive, unhurried listening
I listen not only to what you say but to what God might be saying through it. I have been trained in the art of holy listening, and I bring that attentiveness to everything you share.
03 Prayer and scripture as living resources
Prayer is at the heart of everything I do. I pray for you before our sessions, during them, and after. I may offer you a scripture passage, a prayer practice, or a reflection to carry into the week that follows.
04 Honesty offered with love
I will not simply affirm everything you bring. Where I sense that God is inviting you toward something different, I will say so, gently and with care, because I believe that real accompaniment includes the courage to speak the truth.
05 Confidentiality and sacred trust
What you share with me stays with me. I hold your story with the reverence it deserves, as a sacred trust that I do not take lightly.
WHAT THOSE I HAVE ACCOMPANIED AND/OR COUNSELED SAY
In their
own words.

HOW WE BEGIN
Four simple steps
to our first session.
1
You book a session
Choose a single session or the monthly package and select a time via Calendly. You will receive a confirmation immediately and I will be in touch shortly after.
2
I send you a welcome
Before our first session, I will send you a short welcome note and a simple question to sit with, so you arrive already in the space of reflection and prayer.
3
We meet online
Our session takes place via Zoom. We begin with a short prayer, and then the space is entirely yours. Bring whatever is on your heart. There is nothing you need to prepare or perform.
4
You receive a reflection
After each session, I will send you a short written reflection, a prayer, a scripture passage, or a practice to carry into the days that follow, so that what we opened together continues to unfold.
YOUR QUESTIONS
A few things
people often ask me.
If your question is not answered here, I warmly invite you to write to me directly at info@divine-indwelling.org. I read every message personally and I will respond with care.
-
My foundation is Christian and contemplative, and I am deeply interfaith fluent. I have accompanied people of many traditions and of no formal tradition at all. What matters is the sincerity of your search and your openness to God, however you understand that word.
-
Therapy works primarily with the psychological, addressing patterns, trauma, and mental health. Spiritual direction works primarily with the sacred, attending to your relationship with God, the movements of the Spirit in your life, and the deepest questions of meaning and calling. They are complementary and many people benefit from both.
-
Please bring that question itself to our first session. In practice, spiritual direction and counseling often flow into each other depending on what you are carrying, and I will follow your lead. You do not need to know in advance which you need.
-
After booking via Calendly, you will receive an invoice by email. Payment is accepted via bank transfer or PayPal. For the monthly package, payment is made at the start of the month.
-
Sessions are available in English and French. If you are unsure, please write to me and we will find the arrangement that works best for you.
-
A sliding scale is available for those who genuinely need it. Please write to me before booking and we will find a way forward together. I do not want financial difficulty to be the reason someone does not receive the accompaniment they need.
I am ready
when you are.
You do not need the right words, the right questions, or a clear sense of what you are looking for. You only need to show up. I will receive whatever you bring with care, with prayer, and with the deep trust that God is already at work in all of it.
