 Writing and drawing have been the single most important tools in my life to cope with hardship, trauma and change.  For 20 years, I have shared my passion for art as a healing tool with communities impacted by trauma, violence and systemic oppression.

I designed this workbook and workshop in March of 2021.  

As the one-year anniversary of the Pandemic approached, I observed how the people I care for and the communities around me were struggling to process all that had happened in their lives and where we are now.

The Pandemic is a collective trauma, and it is common that around big anniversaries of change or hardship, we may experience some difficult emotional, spiritual and physical responses.

This workbook and workshop is an offering from me to you and your communities, loved ones and friends.  

I hope this small offering helps you not only process some of what you have been through, but to connect with your strength, vision, and hope. I hope it helps you give yourself permission to use your creativity to connect with yourself more deeply.

Please feel free to share this workbook with your friends and community.  It’s free- but if you’d like to donate to support my workshops,
