Healing Circle Facilitator Trainings
This Healing Circle consists of three areas of focus:

  • Periphery Circle Training – an interactive training that provides an overview of how to host a general healing circle. It is designed for participants to increase their awareness as the facilitator, guide, and build their skill as circle host and to deepen understanding of Circle process, a dialogue exchange within the physical shape of a circle. Circle is a safe place for participants to connect over shared experiences, process and explore ways to alleviate the effects of trauma induced suffering. We use the Circle process to resolve conflict, practice respectful communication strategies to discuss various topics and with differing perspectives.
  • Leveraging Vulnerability – We will delve into the power of vulnerability. Vulnerability fosters empathy and compassion, both towards oneself and others who have experienced similar challenges. It creates opportunities for genuine connection and solidarity, enabling individuals to build stronger support networks and communities.Ultimately, we will view vulnerability as a strength reframes the narrative around trauma, emphasizing resilience, courage, and the capacity for growth. It invites individuals to embrace their humanity fully and to recognize that their struggles do not define them but rather contribute to their strength and resilience.
  • Transmuting Trauma through Art – a comprehensive program designed to help individuals with the knowledge, skills, and support necessary to harness the power of artistic expression for processing, healing, and transforming traumatic experiences. This training offers a unique approach to trauma recovery by integrating art therapy principles with trauma-informed care practices. Participants in this training will gain a deeper understanding of trauma and its effects on the mind, body, and spirit. Participants will walk away with accessible art techniques and mediums to offset the effects of trauma.
