Thank you very much for sessions that are well organized and interesting.
They provide me with a time to be centered and focussed on what's really important.
I appreciate it!

I love being a part of this. You have created a wonderful service for people to learn how to connect to themselves, their emotions, and their inner thoughts.
It has helped me a great deal and I am always encouraging others to join us!

Curiosity Journaling
With special guest, Deborah Ross

What makes you curious? How do you become curious? What are you curious about? How does curiosity impact your brain - and your life? Deborah Ross, co-author of Your Brain On Ink, takes us on an exploration of curiosity and its effects on our lives and our journaling.
Deborah Ross, M.A., LPC, CJT
Deborah retired from her private counseling practice at the end of 2015 to focus on teaching journaling. She is a core faculty member at the Therapeutic Writing Institute.
Ross offers in-person workshops, writing groups, and private instruction in Virginia/ Washington DC metro area.
Informed by her studies with Dr. Dan Siegel, founder of the Mindsight Institute, she creates workshops for cancer patients and those who've had a traumatic brain injury. Deborah also creates workshops for the communities she serves and is the founder of the Your Brain on Ink journaling method to engage the brain in self-directed neuroplasticity.
As co-author with Kathleen Adams of Your Brain on Ink: Neuroplasticity and the Journal Ladder (2016), Deborah likes to invite people to explore the power of writing with the brain in mind. Students consistently report that this knowledge makes their writing more powerful, healing and fun.
