Therapeutic Groups
Exploring the therapeutic possibilities of singing and creative expression.
Singing, creativity
and therapeutic process.
As both community song leaders and practising psychotherapists, we’re bringing these two strands of our work together through group psychotherapy.
Our therapeutic groups weave together singing, vocal exploration, creative expression and reflection, offering space for personal exploration, connection and discovery.
These offerings are distinct from our regular community song circles, with an intentional focus on therapeutic process. No previous singing or artistic experience is necessary.
Upcoming groups
With Jordan Topp and Kate Keenan
Creative Resonance
Singing in the Oral Tradition
Saturday, November 28, 2026
A therapeutic group exploring shared resonance through vocal and creative engagement.
Over a day together we will experience how song and art-making can resource us, reach parts of us that may not be easy to access, and create a shared field of healing.
Grief and Praise
A Day of Song and Creation
Saturday, February 27, 2027
Join us for a day of holding our grief and gratitude in song and creation.
This psychotherapy group offers space to explore personal, collective, and ecological grief through singing, creative expression, quiet reflection and presence. No one will be asked to share personal experiences.
