What is Storywork?

The key to unlocking insight and growth is often embedded in our stories of past harm—stories we’ve buried or tried to leave behind. Storywork is the practice of engaging your own story to open the door to greater healing and freedom.

Guided by a trained facilitator in a group or one-on-one setting, you’ll learn how your past stories of harm are crucial to living free from the impact of trauma and living fully into who you were created to be. The process includes exploring the stories that shaped you through writing, reflecting, and purposeful conversation.
