How I work
My work is guided by the code of ethics set by my membership in the therapeutic writing association, Lapidus.
My process is informed by my training in counseling skills and therapeutic writing facilitation provided by Metanoia Institute and Middlesex University of London.
What you can expect
Therapeutic writing support and guidance is different from coaching. It is less about offering advice and quick problem solving and more about slowing down to create space and awareness needed for deep reflection and clarity.
We use creative exercises to consider your goals, understand blocks to those goals, and chart new ways forward that feel aligned with your values.
Together we explore your personal narratives through writing techniques that promote curiosity, creative exploration, and contemplation such as:
- metaphor testing to promote examination of topics from multiple lenses
- dialogue writing to allow the mind to release habitual thought patterns
- poetry and short story experimentation to quiet the inner critic and allow the mind to approach challenging topics in a less triggering way
- writing with imagery and objects to bring playful perspectives into consideration that may highlight important aspects of your topic
Together, our work will help you foster self-trust, tap into joy, and re-establish connection with yourself and with others.
Creative Guidance
Perhaps you’re feeling stuck, an issue is running over and over in your mind, you just can’t get clear on this. You could use guidance. It’s not therapy you’re seeking, but professional guidance, someone to walk through this narrative with you, someone who can help you see aspects you may have been too close to glimpse when you’re alone in thick of it.
