Six hands-on ways to make.
Expressive-arts programming for creativity, reflection, stress reduction, and practical tools you can carry home.
Printmaking
Block, screen, and monoprint — repetition as a nervous-system reset.
Photography
Learn to see again. Frame your life through a compassionate lens.
Painting
Color, gesture, and quiet — permission to make something only for you.
Beginner Pyrography
Wood-burning as slow, focused craft — line by careful line.
Textiles
Stitch, weave, and mend — rhythm and repair in the hands.
Poetry & Journaling
Shadow-work writing to name what has been unnameable.
Find the medium that meets you where you are.
Restoration you can feel.
Grounding, nonclinical modalities brought together through THI programming.
Yoga
Trauma-informed movement for every body and every level.
Sound bathing
Immersive tones that quiet the mind and settle the body.
Meditation
Breath, presence, and stillness held in a safe container.
Breathwork & grounding
Simple, nonclinical self-regulation practices you can take home.
Future collaborations.
We're thoughtfully expanding our programming through community partnerships. New offerings will be announced once confirmed.
Everything THI offers is nonclinical creative wellness programming — classes, workshops, and sessions. Any therapy, medical, or clinical services are provided by independent practices through partnerships and collaborations, not by THI.
Clinical services, when available, are provided independently by licensed practitioners through their own practices. All clinical intake, consent forms, health forms, records, billing, and privacy notices are handled directly by the practitioner through the practitioner's secure systems. The Healing Initiatives Inc. does not receive, maintain, or control clinical records.
Something small to take the practice home with you.
This is what relief looks like.
Breathwork, sound bowls, meditation, yoga, journaling, and hands-on studio arts — practiced together, at every age.
Trauma-informed movement for every body and every level.
Crystal bowls, nervous-system rest.
A circle, a breath, a reset.
Put it on the page, let it settle.
Printmaking, painting, and making with your hands.
Simple breathing and grounding for all ages.
A welcoming space for anyone rebuilding total health.
People come to The Healing Initiatives for creativity, reflection, stress reduction, family support, personal growth, community, and practical tools that help them sustain healthier lives. Wherever you are on that path, there is a seat at the table for you.
Explore our classesBuilt on five principles of gentle, grounded care.
Founded by Shantelle L. Fuller, a trauma-informed educator with a Master of Education with a specialization in Trauma-Informed Care Educational Practices and 10+ years in special education. Every THI program is guided by five principles that keep our rooms safe, welcoming, and effective — with trauma-informed care as part of, not the whole of, how we hold space.
