writing in the cabin on the hill when run as a retreat . . . the ashdown forest is very near

Sessions are Online (Zoom) & if possible in Forest Row, East Sussex

My sessions work through a combination of discussion to explore where to focus, short-timed exploratory writing, sharing and further discussion. I find a two hour session really does justice to this process of creative and therapeutic writing. I am heartened by the real contact it’s possible to make through the screen. It is quite amazing really. So it would work wherever you are in the world, depending on your time-zone. It’s a bit like a mini-workshop. My fee remains the same whatever the length of the session, if you feel you want a shorter session. Enquiries and getting in touch please use the Contact Form.

FOR WRITERS & PRACTITIONERS

There is enormous flexibility in how a writing session might work for you

If you are clear about your needs then that is where we’d start our discussion and from there go forward

Or

It might be that . . .  you only know that you’d like support for your writing, but are unclear how that might work

***

Here’s what I offer

*    space to focus on your writing and your process of writing

*    imaginative ways of exploring and extending your writing practice

*    discussion about the emotional underpinning of your writing

*    time to connect with yourself  

As feels fitting, we give space to both the creative and the therapeutic potential of your writing. For more understanding of my interpretation of the genre please to go to the page on creative and therapeutic writing.  

 
 

For practitioners in one of the healing professions:

* supervision of your work with others and their writing

* support for your own reflective practice

* discussion around tricky issues when working with others

* reflection on running workshops with groups

***

I work with a wide variety of people: academics and writers, teachers and practitioners of different modalities, students and those who love to write and want to expand their practice. My approach is exploratory and therapeutic. If you are looking for a critique of your project, then I am not the right person. But I often explore how written projects might be approached more fully and that works really well. I suggest you look at the testimonials to see how.
