Words to Live by

This section of the website will be dedicated to writing & other media by myself, as well as other counselors, educators, healers, activists & artists engaged in anti-oppression & anti-racism work. 

 

For now, I will be compiling a short book list of things I highly recommend & have found to be incredibly beneficial in my work, understanding & healing. This area will soon be updated to include articles, organizations, documentaries/movies, shows & interviews.

- Loving What Is by Byron Katie (self-awareness)

- Noviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg (self-awareness, interpersonal communication)
