Three-session workshop
Join us for an empowering three-session workshop designed for survivors of trauma, individuals with previous incarceration experiences, and those exploring gender identity. "Loving Yourself Beyond the Trauma" provides a safe and supportive space for participants to process their experiences, enhance emotional wellness, and cultivate resilience.
Through engaging activities, group discussions, and practical tools, you will learn to distinguish between trauma bonding and healing, to identify personal triggers, and to develop effective coping strategies. Each session focuses on building self-confidence and fostering supportive relationships, enabling you to reclaim your narrative and navigate life’s challenges with strength.
By the end of the workshop, you will have created personalized action plans for ongoing healing and community engagement, along with a network of like-minded individuals ready to support each other on this transformative journey.
Whether you’re seeking personal growth, connection, or a deeper understanding of your experiences, this workshop will equip you with the skills and confidence to thrive. Don’t miss this opportunity to embark on a journey toward emotional well-being and empowerment!
