More on Drama Therapy

Drama therapy is the intentional use of theatrical and dramatic techniques to reach therapeutic goals.

It can take many forms depending on individual and group needs, skill and ability levels, interests, and therapeutic goals. It may include improvisation, drama games, storytelling, metaphor, enactment or role play, movement and gesture, performance, or ritual.

Drama therapists may also incorporate elements of visual art, music, poetry, or dance. Drama therapy is influenced by drama, theatre, psychology, anthropology, play, and other creative processes. Drama therapy is not psychotherapy.

Full spectrum doula @ Your Journey with J

Whether a first birth or last, I truly believe that birth is a journey and something that should be supported along the way with a doula. My goal is to shift the way we think about birth and replace fear with education and empowerment – while centering BIPOC, single, and LGBTQIA+ people. It is my training from Re+Birth Equity, Birthing Advocacy, and DONA International, as well as years of working with families in various capacities and personal lived experience that allows me to provide comprehensive and culturally inclusive support. Birthwork is my social justice work. I provide in person and virtual doula offerings that include prenatal education, planning, birth & postpartum support, and more. My model of support differs from many doulas, in that I join you on the journey to and through birth and foster a longer term relationship – typically 4-6 months.

In addition to my independent doula work, I am a programming and community engagement volunteer with Mama Sana Vibrant Woman, Prenatal PIP squeaks facilitator with Partners in Parenting, and member of Suenos Sin Fronteras Birth Network and National Black Doula Association. I’m currently further developing my skill set and knowledge by choosing to go beyond training and pursuing full spectrum doula certification, child birth educator certification, and 200 YTT. Winter of 2020 full spectrum support will be availible to include fertility, abortion, and berevement doula support. I support all reproductive choices and believe every person has the right to bodily autonomy.

Ruby C Powell is a Holistic Health Practitioner/Energy Healer who is thrilled to guide and introduce clients to a powerful technique for removing unconscious beliefs that keep us stuck in unwanted and/or negative life patterns.

Whether it’s addiction, depression, anxiety, PTSD, lack of confidence, troubled relationships, coming to terms with your own sexual identity/LGBTQ, career concerns or debilitating fears. Resonance Repatterning is an evolutionary process that is transforming people and helping them to live life to the fullest. It is truly magical.

Ruby was introduced to the healing process that is Resonance Repatterning by a close friend. She confided about an issue in her life that kept resurfacing saying, “It’s like this pattern that keeps coming back.” Prior to that, after discussing recurrent neck and shoulder issues with her chiropractor, it was recommended that she visit a healing center that utilizes spiritual philosophies to improve mind, body and spirit, a process very similar to Resonance Repatterning. She knew after only a few sessions that she would become a practitioner and utilize this process to change other people’s lives the way it did hers.
