Workshops
Life in a queer, neurodivergent, chronically ill or chronically pained body can feel deeply isolating.
You might be craving:
-
Community with people who get it
-
A space where you can show up as your whole self
-
Support that isn’t clinical, rushed, or overwhelming
-
A way to express emotions beyond talking
-
Validation without needing to explain everything
-
Creative outlets that feel gentle instead of performative
-
A break from masking or feeling “too much”
-
​
It’s completely normal to want connection, but also feel nervous about joining a group.
You’re not alone in that.
Many people in your community have spent years navigating spaces that weren’t built with them in mind.
So wanting a safe, slow, and affirming group environment makes total sense.
These workshops are designed to be the opposite of high-pressure, high-energy group spaces.
They’re soft, accessible, creative, and welcoming — a place to land, not perform.
