I collaborate with you to bring the transformative power of Art Therapy to you. We cultivate a communal discovery experience with interested groups that will enable you to acquire a basic understanding of art therapy, racial healing, narrative change, truth-telling, and transformation.  Using the pineapple metaphor and model, we will aid you in deepening your understanding of how historical trauma manifests itself in our lifeworlds.  Followed by a shift from what happened to you to what's right with you. An interactive experience filled with art making, teamwork, conversation, and pineapples will help participants redefine and reclaim narratives rooted in truth, justice, and radical hope.

​

This process is experiential and integrates various disciplines including narrative, strength-based, emotion-focused, multicultural, mindfulness, and trauma-focused therapies. Learning to identify the presence of trauma can help us reshape our bodies, lives, families, communities, and spaces we gather.
