Rita Paskowitz - Creative Healing Coordinator and Artist
As leader of the storytelling workshop, I have been challenged to stretch my imagination and my skill set to come up with fresh ideas, activities and stories to embrace and empower anyone dealing with issues of grief –either personally or professionally. Being a part of Creative Healing has made me a better artist, educator and person. It has been an honor to spend time in the presence of those suffering from loss, working with bereavement specialists and others who devote their lives to bringing comfort and understanding to those most in need. I always learn more than I teach.
Ann Hood - 2009 Keynote Speaker
I have to admit, when I attended Creative Healing last spring I didn't know what to expect. I didn't expect to play the drums, or to have that drum playing bring emotions to the surface. I didn't expect to dance my life story, and through dancing it see my life differently. I didn't expect such warmth and genuine caring to generate from everyone there--participants, organizers, workshop leaders. I didn't expect to want to go back. But I do. I will. Because who knows what healing surprises I will find next time?
Maureen O’Donnell - Owner at Arbor Family Counseling
I am a fan of Creative Healing! I have taken their classes many times and have come to believe in the healing power of the arts. The tough part of life happens to us all. This group not only provides you with an avenue for healing the hurts that you have no words for, they also provide experiences that leave you knowing your “inner artist”. This is soul work that you won’t find in a medicine bottle!
Lois Weber - Exploring Healing Pathways
Attending Creative Healing allowed light to enter some dark pockets of grief that I didn’t realize were still there. It was an experiential day, to be sure, and healing happened. To go inward in the course of a day and bring something out to express was pure gift. Everyone seemed to be met right where they were with heartfelt caring! To spend a day among such compassionate and accepting leaders was touching. I came home with new resources that I have since drawn on! Thanks to Rita Paskowitz and all who presented! You do make a difference!
Marta Nieves - Professional Training & Coaching
For me, Creative Healing was transformational. It opened my mind to looking at grief in new ways and taught me that storytelling, music and dance can all be roads to healing. It also helped me recognize that one can experience grief before an event actually takes place. I recommend this program highly.
