WHAT IS WRITING THERAPY? Studies have shown that writing is a successful way to deal with stress, depression, managing your life, and setting and completing personal goals. One-on-one we will work to discover and uncover who you are through your writing. You will be given writing prompts to help you begin and get you writing about all areas of your life. We will discuss them and you will receive support and a listening ear. Writing therapy can help you put the past to rest, deal with problems that are occurring now, prepare for the future, and set goals and realize them. It is an exciting way to work through things at your own pace with someone who understands.

UPCOMING:
Live Boldly! Uncover your passionate life and live it now!
You will have the unique opportunity to participate in a Women's Weekend Retreat at Racine's historical DeKoven Center on the Lake. During the two day workshops you will work with Life Coach Jeanette Stevenson and Writer and Teacher Colleen Kappeler. These two women have pulled together a program to inspire you and help you uncover the passion that lies dormant within and begin to express it in your life now. Saturday's workshop will consist of several writing exercises that take you through themes that are often present in our lives and can be blocking us from living the passionate life we all desire. Exercises and visualizations will also be given to help you realize your passion and how to put it into words you can live by. Sunday's workshop will include individual creations of Vision Boards which allow you to put within your sight the life you want to live. You will also share your creations with other women who are there to gain the same insights you are. The workshop will begin at 10 a.m. each day and end at 4:00 on Saturday and 3:00 on Sunday. Lunch and snacks will be provided each day, and overnight lodging is available by request. Both instructors will be staying overnight and will be available Saturday evening for more discussion time. Several area restaurants and shops are available for walking, shopping and eating! This exciting weekend is geared toward self-discovery and renewal. It is the perfect step if you are ready for something new in your life or if you want to clarify where you are headed. Support, encouragement, and the fellowship of other women are included! Space will be limited, so please sign up soon!
Cost: The two day workshop, including lunches, snacks, drinks, yoga class, and materials is $225 / person. There is a minimal charge for overnight accomodations. Contact me for more information.
