Healing Through Somatics & Creativity

I offer trauma-informed, queer & trans-affirming healing spaces that integrate somatic work, creative expression, and community support to help you reconnect with yourself and others. Whether you're processing grief, exploring intimacy, or reclaiming joy, these workshops provide a safe space to heal.

  • Queer Joy Is Radical

    Creative Expression – Explore healing through collaged poetry, journaling, and art therapy for deep self-reflection.

    Community & Connection – Build relationships with like-minded individuals in an inclusive and affirming environment.
