Subtitle: Help Yourself Through Expressive/Therapeutic Writing
Book Description
The author of this book reveals dark secrets and let’s you into her heart and soul as she candidly shares her therapeutic writing journey. Writing that gradually reveals details of cumulative traumatic events that began when Janie was a small, unwanted child. You will see how her poetry, written by left and right brain communication, gave voice to a silenced child and tells a story like prose could never do.
The author shares her story and therapeutic writing journey in hopes that trauma victims will be helped to heal an injured mind through a therapeutic writing path. The book is a result of eight years of hard work and research on trauma and recovery.
Inside you will find writing samples, charts as well as therapeutic poetry that can be used to stimulate expressive/therapeutic writing in yourself or in others. Readers will benefit from the real depth of understanding an injured mind and yet enjoy the simplicity of the uncluttered information in Janie’s book.

GAVE VOICE TO A SILENCED CHILD
By Janie Lancaster

Instructor: Janie Lancaster, survivor of cumulative childhood traumas, poet, teacher and published children's author.
Theme: Mrs. Lancaster would use her true life experience, charts, samples of her prescriptive poetry and creative writing to demonstrate how to help traumatized victims develop areas on the right side of the brain that have been long dormant. This workshop will renew interest for those who choose to use creative writing as a tool to help trauma victims in their healing process. From her own extensive research on traumatized children and her personal experience she believes: "A Mind Once Stretched By A New Idea Never Returns To Its Original Position."
Victims of trauma need to:
· Express their loss
· Read about other survivors of similar circumstances (traumas)
· Have the creative side of the brain stimulated
STUDENTS WILL TAKE HOME a variety of handouts and will learn…
