A Listening Space

Cheryl Harris Sharman

Liminal listening for life's thresholds


I accompany people through thresholds:
those strange seasons when an old way of being has ended, but what comes next has yet to emerge.
I offer something different for the in-between.


This may be for you if you’ve done the work and are listening for what comes next. You don't want more therapy or coaching. You’re navigating the shifting sands of identity, spirituality, geography, community, vocation, any, all. You're curious and courageous enough to ask, “How do I live from here?” “What is asking to emerge or be honored?” “How do I become more fully myself?” You want someone to bear witness or accompany you, rather than another framework or program. You seek someone who understands the importance of culture and context. You seek someone with an intersectional, holistic approach.A Season of Accompaniment
3 sessions: a focused threshold journey
6 sessions: a deeper season of listening and discernment
My approach includes:
contemplative inquiry
cultural anthropology
spiritual direction
somatic awareness
trauma-informed practice
grief and ritual work


A little about me:I love listening. It’s been deepened by many decades and degrees. I'm a trauma survivor and neurodivergent. So I listen to you the way I want someone to listen to me. Both. And. Beyond the decades and degrees, which define my listening in different ways, I shelter people. I listen - as a container - to create space for clients to see and find meaning; however they define that. I listen with a biopsychosocialspiritual approach.I also hold an M.A. in Sociology and Anthropology and certifications in: Clinical Traumatology, Compassion Fatigue, Spiritual Direction and Retreats, the Enneagram, and mindfulness.To begin a conversation, click the calendar link below.
