I met with a retired bishop for awhile, and that was a time of great growth for me, but he moved north to be closer to family. I have not found anything that meets that experience.

Spiritual direction, IMHO, does not require formal training. Your seminary training is surely enough technical knowledge. Rather, it requires a commitment to the other person, and a curiosity that delights in knowing more and digging deeper. If that sounds like you, offer yourself to those who seek.
