Adults Can Heal Their Past
Our workshops and one one-on-one sessions help adults transform triggering memories to gain new perspective and reclaim their power
A Path Forward in Your Healing Journey
Our children’s programs focus on prevention—building emotional literacy and safety from the start. Our adult offerings support healing the emotional wounds we carry from the unmet needs of childhood that still echo in our bodies and relationships.
When we weren’t fully seen, heard, or understood as children, our nervous system learned to stay on alert. These early experiences can leave lasting imprints—shaping how we feel, how we connect with ourselves and others, and how safe we feel in the world.
Emotional wounds often show up as anxiety, disconnection, anger, or chronic stress responses like fight, flight, freeze, fawn, or flop. But healing is possible. With the right tools, support, and compassion, we can begin to rewire our nervous system and reclaim our sense of safety and self-worth.
Whether through group workshops or one-on-one sessions, this work invites you to gently explore the stuck memories within you, and to imagine new ways of being—rooted in safety, creativity, and care.

Finding Truth Workshops
These workshops invite participants to explore and transform difficult memories—and to imagine a more empowered future—through simple, expressive drawings.
Using art and compassionate communication, you’ll build a deeper vocabulary of feelings and needs, and learn practical tools for self-regulation, self-compassion, and emotional healing.
Depending on the workshop theme, the process may take us backward to revisit and reshape past experiences, or forward into dreaming the day-to-day outcomes you want to create, as well as the bigger visions around relationships, inner states, and life you want to create.
We use a three step drawing process involving “magic drawings” and the heart’s own compassion to gently shift emotional patterns.
Group workshops offer a sense of comradarie and connection. They’re ideal for those who feel supported by community, enjoy learning alongside others, or want to explore healing in a structured, creative space.
All sessions are led with a trauma-informed approach that honors each person’s pace, voice, and lived experience. You are never required to share more than feels safe.
One-on-One sessions
In these sessions, we follow a similar process ot the group workshops with more flexibility to follow each persons preferences, pace and depth. We use imagination and/or drawing to gently explore stuck memories—those moments that cling like Velcro and quietly shape how we relate to ourselves and others.
Together, we practice tools that help bring the nervous system into safety. From that grounded place, we can begin to explore these memories with curiosity and compassion, allowing healing to unfold at your own pace. We work together to shift emotional patterns and open space for new possibilities.
We may transform situations using “magic drawings” or guided imagery, depending on your preference.
One-on-one work is especially helpful if you:
-
Feel safer in a more closely held, private space
- Prefer deeper support than a group setting can offer
- Want to move at your own rhythm, with personalized attention
-
Are navigating sensitive memories that require gentle, attuned care
-
Want to go deeper into a topic and get more personal support to reach full resolution
Sessions are available in person in Northern Virginia and Southeast Florida, and online for global reach.
These workshops are not a replacement for therapy. If you’re currently working with a therapist, we encourage you to discuss your participation with them to ensure this work complements your healing journey. Together, we can ensure that your healing journey is well-supported and aligned.
“This served as a powerful session for me to work through a traumatic incident that occurred about a year ago. I thought I had worked through the incident, but this session provided a new layer of resolution.” — Workshop participant, May 2025
“I never realized how much love we could give to ourselves and others involved in a past situation from many years ago! We can truly gain a new perspective and see a story differently. Simple and powerful.” — Workshop participant, May 2025
