I wanted to create a course that felt intimate as well as cathartic. I wanted to connect closely with each person embarking on this poetry writing journey, or simply offer special prompts to open the heart and propel the writing process.
While I was creating the heart openers and exercises, I could not help but feel the stirrings of my own life material and decided to share some of my personal life encounters with you. My emotions around certain events surfaced, signaling a desire to be held from a different angle and viewed from another side. I was safely drawn to the earliest of memories, crying out for earnest attention to be gifted with another level of resolution. And the things I carried that are not asking to be resolved whispered through the veils of my soul calling out to be recognized.
The Poetry Healing Course was written from my heart and soul to yours.
Since 2019, I’ve been honored to spend time with courageous people, showing up as poets and writers who blew me away with their sincerity and astonishing poetry. There is something about this course that honors your need to express the once forgotten or memorable through writing, granting soft, ample space to unfold.
I’m passionate about therapeutic and creative writing and invite you to join me for our next healing odyssey. Whether you decide to journey privately with me or share with our support group, you are certain to step into a realm of intimacy with your emotions, your experiences, and your body that tremble to be heard and dares to become powerful poetry.
Everyone has a language. Everyone has a voice.
You won't need to discover your voice with me, but simply allow it to vibrantly bloom and fill the space all around us —and let me hear your soul speak. This course covers the vast range of humanness, delving deep inside the stored memories and far the reaches of your heart. Your passions, grief, joyous accomplishments and survival know-how. You will find yourself searching for the most precious parts within, compassionately uncovering them in safely kept places and longing to be revealed through your powerful words and distinctive style. Your poetry is calling out to be recognized.

With Love, care, and kindness,
