Let This Poem Be A Hand Upon Your Shoulder – Poetry Therapy Workshop

“In a dark time, the eye begins to see …” Theodore Roethke

In times of crisis and uncertainty, poetry can bring comfort and healing.

Let this poem be a hand upon your shoulder, consists of workshops that can help you explore feelings, and build your resilience as you connect with others in these challenging times.

The theme for the workshops was inspired by a poem written by Deborah Cooper.

The workshops will take place online, in a closed group on Zoom.

We will use carefully selected poems as a springboard for writing, reflection and conversations.

The workshops are for anyone who wants additional resources, in these unsettling times. It is for those who enjoy creativity, journalling, writing for personal or professional development.

No prior knowledge of poetry or expressive writing is required; you simply need to be willing to share, reflect and experiment with words in a supportive environment.

Charmaine Pollard has written an inspirational work book Writing for Resilience. You can find the book here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0942FWMN8
