Martha, Writing Circle Participant

In the circles I have repeatedly watched Jocelyn's calm, warm tone and thoughtfully designed sequence of activities lead people to a place of trust and openness that invites deep healing. The resulting energy of connection and willing vulnerability in the room moves me every time. She manages to pace the workshops so that people have time to share if they wish without crowding too many people into the last few minutes. Thus, right up to the closing Jocelyn honors the spaciousness that allows people to stay connected to their own rhythms. This experience of abundant caring attention and respectful sharing is a powerful antidote to trauma. Jocelyn has a gift of compassionate leadership that will benefit any group she leads.”
