“When TSM first started in the early 90s, we called our personal growth workshops “Surviving Spirits” to honor the courage and determination of the women and men who participated in order to heal from sexual abuse. TSM has traveled the world into 30 countries, and the model has evolved to facilitate the healing of both collective and individual wounds, while expanding its effectiveness with all types of trauma. We now re-introduce this TSM workshop with an emphasis on building the spontaneity and creativity needed to face trauma without the veil of addictions, including eating disorders. At times, words are not enough, so this workshop utilizes action methods and expressive arts as an avenue for healing. Through proven TSM group work, we pay special attention to safety and confidentiality, increasing participants’ sense of resilience and community to share their loss and grieve the past. This is an introductory workshop for those on a journey of healing, who are ready to work in a like-minded community using action methods and expressive arts.”
