This group is for you if you're seeking a safe and nurturing space to express your experiences of religious trauma and faith deconstruction through the healing power of expressive writing. But most importantly, this group is for everyone—especially those who don’t consider themselves a writer.

This is a place to connect with like-minded individuals on a journey of rediscovering themselves— allowing doubts, questions, and grief to all belong in community with others.

Writing experience isn’t needed—only a willingness to show up and explore your lived experiences through writing and discussion with other group members who have shared experiences. Sharing your writing is optional and will often be done in pairs. The writing portion of this class is first and foremost for your own processing and excavation.
