Healing Through Writing: A Young Adult Writing Workshop

CancerCare and Elephants and Tea are hosting a free virtual writing workshop for the Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) cancer community!

Elephants and Tea facilitators will lead a 90-minute workshop for young adults navigating a cancer diagnosis, which will highlight the benefits of using narrative therapy as a tool for self-expression during their cancer journey. In a relaxed, safe environment, participants will learn to use journaling as a tool to manage emotions and feelings that are present during a diagnosis and throughout treatment. The facilitators will guide attendees through writing prompts and facilitate open discussions, providing opportunities to connect with peers and share experiences of navigating a cancer diagnosis as a young adult. By utilizing narrative therapy, participants will be empowered to share their stories by writing, speaking and processing their experiences with peers throughout this workshop and beyond.
