Transformative Writing: Using Poetry as a Tool for Reflecting on Change and Life’s Challenges

Welcome to this creative writing session where we'll explore how poetry can enhance reflective journaling and writing, and perhaps even inspire you to create your own poem! Together, we’ll delve into the theme of change, using poetry as a tool to give voice to your thoughts and uncover any unconscious insights that are waiting to emerge. You'll learn how to engage with poetry in a fun and meaningful way, without the pressure of academic analysis, and discover how this approach can be adapted for your own journaling or used in sessions with clients.
