Molly M. Johnson, MDiv.
Hi there!
I am a queer, femme, Leather ciswoman with chronic illness married to a nonbinary person.
I know how easy it is to believe the illusion of separateness and the myth of not belonging.
I started my spiritual journey when I was age 13. I was raised in the Unitarian Universalist church. I have over 25 years of experience studying religion and spirituality. I have personally explored Neopaganism, Taoism, Buddhism, and Hinduism. I am a spiritual wellness coach, priestess of the Divine, an ordained Interfaith minister, and identify as spiritual-but-not-religious (SBNR).
Drawing on my 25+ years of experience and study of spirituality and religion, I am called to empower individuals to be their own spiritual authority and provide nonreligious tools to nurture their spiritual wellness so that they can thrive in all areas of their lives. I specialize in working with spiritual-but-not-religious and multifaith adults and I particularly like supporting my fellow LGBTQ+ adults.
