Scott K Smith
Ordained Minister in Austin, Texas
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I am an ordained minister, and educator since 2019. I'm versed in the poetic aspects of various religious and spiritual traditions, with a non-denominational approach, speaking to and for the people I work with. My background is non-conventional, with alternative roots, Earth-based, and I lean towards creating the creative and inspired through ritual to achieve desired experiences.
I am very experienced with esoteric, and modern alternative practices with both an accademic (9-year) training, and actual experience with in-person groups, spiritual counselling, public speaking, coordinating with teams, active listening, holding space, writing and performing ceremonies, and a robust healing practice with decades long clients for more than 20 years.

Greater outreach in Spiritual Services, to allow other to feel connected in their life passages, and moments.
