Welcome and thank you for visiting the Transformational Writing Center. The use of journal writing, poetry, and creative expression in a safe, supportive, and relaxed learning environment is known to aid in personal growth, expression of emotions such as grief and loss, and provides an outlet for giving voice to what is important in one's life. It is my sincere hope that you will enjoy and experience personal growth and insight when you participate in the writing groups and classes we offer here at the Transformational Writing Center. Within these web pages, in addition to our group and workshop offerings, we provide links to the world of writing and healing research, training opportunities, and information about other writing organizations and activities around the country. Feel free to browse around and let us know if you have any questions. We hope you will come by again soon.
