Groups and Workshops
Making sense of things. Together.
What I love about running groups is when it gets real. The room changes. You can feel it — something is happening, something is shifting. That’s what I’m after.
My groups draw from years of poetry, teaching, organizing, psychotherapy training, and my own time in groups as a participant. They’re process-oriented and collaborative — built for people who want more than surface conversation.
Now Forming
Morning Writes
You keep telling yourself you’ll write when things slow down.
They don’t slow down. You know that.
Morning Writes is an hour a week where writing actually happens. A prompt, a container, a small group of people showing up for the same reason you are. You write. You share if you want to. Nobody critiques your work. Nobody expects you to have it together.
This is not a workshop. There is no homework. There is no pressure to be further along than you are.
Just you, the page, and a room full of people who get it.
All experience levels welcome. All genres. All subjects.
$120 for 8 weeks. Early bird $99 — first cohort only.
Sober Sovereign Woman
You did everything they told you to do. And you still feel like shit.
Maybe you’re sober and still can’t stop thinking about drinking. Maybe you did the steps and something still feels missing. Maybe you’re tired of being told that gratitude is the answer when what you actually need is for someone to acknowledge what happened to you.
This group is for women in recovery or recovery-curious who are ready to go deeper — not into the steps, but into themselves. Each week a different theme: trauma, identity, relationships, power, creativity, what a life built for you actually looks like. Honest conversation. No scripts. No ego-smashing.
Traditional recovery was built around men. Your story is different. This group starts there.
$75 for 8 weeks. Sliding scale available — please reach out.
Gathering Interest
Dark Times Circle
You’re told you are too much.
Too angry. Too sad. Too focused on what’s wrong. Too political. Too sensitive. Too exhausted to be good company anymore.
But you’re not too much. You’re paying attention. And paying attention to what’s happening in the world right now is its own kind of weight to carry.
Dark Times Circle is a facilitated space for people who need somewhere to put it. Not to fix it. Not to be talked out of it. Just to be honest about what it costs to be awake right now, and to not be alone in that.
Each week we gather to witness, process, and make meaning together. We draw on depth psychology, collective experience, and the belief that our distress is not a malfunction — it is a response to a world that needs our attention.
Open to anyone. No experience with therapy or psychology required.
Applications open for inaugural group.
Cosmic Crone
Something is shifting. You can feel it.
Maybe it’s your body. Maybe it’s your sense of who you are and what you want. Maybe it’s the quiet recognition that the life you built no longer quite fits, and something else is trying to emerge.
This is not decline. This is initiation.
Cosmic Crone is a process and reflection circle for women in the second half of life — perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause, and beyond. Each week we gather to explore what this stage is asking of us, drawing on Jungian depth psychology, archetypes, shadow work, and the wisdom of voices like Marion Woodman, Clarissa Pinkola Estés, and Sharon Blackie.
We use writing, reflection, and honest conversation to make sense of what is ending, what is emerging, and what it means to step into the fullness of who you are becoming.
All women welcome. Queer-affirming space. $150 for 8 weeks.
Available by arrangement
The Odyssey
Some journeys require more than a weekly group.
The Odyssey is a 3 to 5 day intensive workshop based on the hero’s journey — developed and tested in intensive outpatient mental health and recovery settings. Participants move through the archetypal stages of departure, initiation, and return, using writing, reflection, and group process to make meaning of where they are and what comes next.
Available for treatment programs, retreat centers, and organizations.
My Approach
My facilitation style is warm, relational, and process-oriented. I’m interested in spaces where people can move beyond surface conversation and into something more honest and alive.
Some groups are quiet and exploratory. Others become emotionally engaged, funny, intense, or unexpectedly revealing. There’s room for complexity, strong feeling, and a little fire when needed.
