Trust + Joy
In the space between us, beautiful things take root and grow. Your voice is powerful medicine. So is listening. Together, we reveal what's deepest inside. And find joy in the sharing.
My ProcessMy workshops, classes, and one-one sessions are personally designed for people who have suffered, survived...and desire a new way of life.
Through creative writing, centering practices, mind-body-spirit integration, and sacred listening, wounds and insights are gently and lovingly brought to light. One important facet of my process is hearing people into being. When people feel truly seen and heard, we share what is deepest in their hearts, often for the first time. We can then write a new reality for ourselves, externalizing old scripts and inherited beliefs, and regaining trust and zest for life. Changing our inner language (the stories we tell ourselves) is key to:
I support people of all backgrounds, with an emphasis on women, youth and communities who are experiencing life-altering trauma and transformation. |
