You know the importance of digesting your food—no matter how delicious and rich a meal you’ve enjoyed, if you don’t digest what you’ve taken in, there will be trouble.
The same is true for your life experiences. When you’ve been through a major adventure—whether that involves travel, a major life initiation or transition, a big storyline, theme or area of struggle in your life, or something else— you need to digest and process those experiences.
Writing—especially writing that is witnessed by yourself and others—is one of the most powerful and effective ways to digest your life experiences. Writing also helps you:
remember your experiences
get a clearer idea of what your experiences were, what they meant to you then and what they mean to you now
claim yourself as the author of your own life
explore your internal landscapes (i.e. the emotional, mental, spiritual terrain)
heal the harder parts of your stories
honor what is true
transform in healthy and empowering ways
I know deeply the magic that can happen when we write our stories. I’ve been writing to digest, heal and understand my experiences since I was a teenager. I’ve been a professional writer since 2003, hold a master’s in teaching writing, was an English professor for six years, had led hundreds of clients through the book writing process, have led expressive writing workshops internationally, and have published my own book that helps people write their own stories.
I am also a Depth Coach that uses parts work, narrative therapy, deep imagery, somatic healing, trauma support, and embodiment practices to support clients in their journey toward greater healing. Together we can put together a custom healing program that uses writing for healing and other key modalities to support your goals and dreams for yourself.
As your Personal writing coach, I will support you in writing, expressing, claiming, processing, healing and honoring the important stories of your life.
Feel courageous, confident, capable, and actually enjoy the process of writing
with the help of a personal writing coach
that helps you feel seen, nurtured, and empowered to express yourself authentically and with greater ease.
WritING to Heal program overview
This is a 3-month personal writing coach program through which we will:
• Cultivate Clarity: we’ll get clear about the healing narrative(s) you want to write, why you want to write it, for whom you are writing (can just be for you), what your challenges and strengths are, where your hang-ups are, what you need to write, and more.
• Create an intention-based, achievable writing plan: Set clear intentions and create a focused plan of action so that you can heap the most reward from our time together and from your writing experience.
• Recieve the benefits of an empathic witness + get feedback on your writing: having an empathic witness to our stories is a potent way to heal. I will offer this empathic witnessing as you move through this expressive writing work. If you want to share your work beyond our coaching container, you’ll receive feedback to strengthen your writing for your intended audience.
• Get unstuck + Receive Holistic Support: together we’ll help you clear writing hurdles as they arise, get unstuck, brainstorm, solve a problem in your writing, and revitalize your writing life. I offer somatic-based, trauma-informed support to help you through the challenges and stresses that may arise as you go to write the stories that matter.
