"There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed."

— Ernest Hemingway

Inspire. Connect. Create.

Writing is a redemptive act. We grift the minutia of daily life for blood and gold, mining the corners of our consciousness for ghosts we can exchange for diamonds. To be a writer is to live in the layers beneath ordinary life. This group is a place for those who see the world from that lens to connect, create, and inspire one another. 

We offer a cozy environment for writing time and connection, providing tea, coffee, and light snacks with time to write together, share our work, and socialize.

9-9:30pm: Share time
9:30-10:30pm: Community Social

College admissions have become more competitive with each passing year. By helping your child craft a unique narrative that captures who they are and what sets them apart, you give them the edge they need to stand out from the crowd.

A well-told story can transform an application from a trite list of accomplishments into a compelling portrait of a student with passion, drive, and a distinctive voice. Helping your your child tell their story in a way that resonates and leaves a lasting impression can make the difference in gaining admissions to elite universities and receiving tuition scholarships.

About Brooke Sprowl

As a psychotherapist, poet, and cross-genre writer, I consider myself a lifelong student of the unconscious, continuously exploring the depths of the human mind and soul. With over twenty years of experience as a writer, consultant, and facilitator, I have honed a unique skillset that allows me to bridge the worlds of psychology and creativity, delving into the nuances of emotional and mental landscapes with both sensitivity and insight. 

My work is rooted in the belief that the stories we tell ourselves shape our reality, and through my diverse roles, I guide others in uncovering and transforming these narratives. I possess the rare ability to weave together the threads of therapy, literature, and artistic expression, helping clients and writers alike to access their deepest truths and express them in ways that are both healing and transformative.

My approach is both intuitive and evidence-based, informed by years of experience in the trenches of creative and psychological exploration. Whether through the written word, therapeutic dialogue, or creative facilitation, my aim is to illuminate the often-hidden corners of the psyche, fostering a space where true self-expression and growth can flourish.
