Hi! I’m Parrish Wilson – Writer, Workshop Leader & Writing Therapist

I’ve been in love with writing since childhood—not to be read, but to be real.

Writing was how I made sense of the world, how I found myself, and how I learned to BE myself.

In 2013, as a mom of a toddler and a baby, I needed a new job. My career up to that point was in youth mental health and my depleted patience levels didn’t have the capacity for that type of work with two high demand sweeties at home. I turned to writing, that trusty love of mine, but quickly discovered I didn’t like writing for other people nor did I enjoy tying the value of writing to a publisher’s judgement.

So I started helping other people write.

Back in my years working with kids, I knew we needed more effective, embodied treatments for emotional and cognitive distress. Now I get to bring research-backed therapeutic writing workshops to people around the world.

Dream come true.

Creative practices move us toward happier, more fulfilled lives by offering a sense of meaning and opportunity for self-expression.
