I love movies! I grew up always drawn to authentic storytelling and it is in those stories that I recognized I began to learn about cultures, perspectives, struggles and triumphs, that I had not experienced myself. And yet, I felt compelled to somehow insert myself into the narrative. This process can be validating, even if the validation reveals a painful truth. You may be visiting my website on your own time or you may be a client of mine that's been given some homework. Either way, please take some intentional time to explore these movies.
--Please be aware that some of these movies explore difficult, raw and sometimes downright tragic subjects. If you feel nervous about what may come up please chat with me first as I'd love to support this process for you. If you don't currently work with me, please feel free to reach out through my connection page HERE.
