What inspires you? How can Nature, Art, Music, and Beauty help us connect to our authentic voices? How do we stay inspired and uplifted amid turbulent times? How might creative expression strengthen our shared humanity when it’s needed most?

This 3-hour workshop on Sunday November 16th is intended for those who wish:

🌍 to make time for writing but struggle to find the space
🌎 to share their creative voice in a nourishing, supportive setting
🌏 to build confidence in writing and self-expression
🌍 to receive guidance and encouragement in their writing practice
🌎 to grow and deepen their creative community

Together, we will explore Nature, Art, and Music as sources of inspiration in creating original written pieces. Immersed in imagery and sound, we will explore that which we find to be beautiful, how it makes us feel, and how we translate that feeling into our own authentic artistic expression.

This time together will foster an open and receptive environment, a willingness to explore within, and a spirit of vulnerability, generosity, and authenticity in which one can safely access one’s own creativity while supporting others in accessing their own.

Registration & more info by reaching out to Eleanor at contactcreativewritingworkshop@gmail.com.

Our Origin Story

All of us had good things going. Elizabeth Wilder Young worked in Buckhead and Dana Goldman was doing therapy in the Old Fourth Ward; Maggie Akstin was counseling in Inman Park and Emily Gosterisli was expecting a new baby. Tara Lozano had gotten used to the long commute to Alpharetta. Combined we had decades of experience doing therapy but we weren’t really looking to start a new counseling center.

And then Elizabeth stumbled into the upstairs suite at 2033 Hosea Williams Drive in the fabulous neighborhood of Kirkwood—the neighborhood that is home to three of us and close to home for the others. She fell hard and fast. The natural light! The wooden floors! The privacy and quiet! And the location, so much closer to home than Buckhead!

Soon, Elizabeth brought Dana to see the space. Dana took one look at what had been a conference room and envisioned a light-filled office close to home. Dana was sold.

Together, Elizabeth and Dana began wooing Maggie and then Emily. A year later, Tara—an old colleague of Ginny and Dana—gave up her commute to join us.
