Training

How can you experience the power of words to heal?

There are two ways to do this here:

  1. By participating in workshops where you would use literature - poetry, prose, fiction and non-fiction - to express yourself, explore and understand your journey, and take steps towards your own wellbeing.

  2. By training as a Poetry Therapy Practitioner (PTP) with the International Academy for Poetry Therapy (iaPOETRY), a credentialing organization, with me or one of these mentors.

What You’ll Experience in Poetry Therapy Sessions

  • How to use lines from poetry or prose as prompts that connect to your own emotions.

  • How to write your own beautiful poetry that speaks to who you are, in a safe and confidential space.

  • How poems can connect to your journey.

  • Collaborate and share (if you choose) with other participants in the group.
