Sunflower Soul Project
Sunflower Soul Project meets the growing need for trauma-informed, creative, and community-centered healing spaces. It helps individuals and organizations move from awareness to action by providing tools for self-regulation, connection, and resilience through art and shared experience.
The Sunflower Soul Project is a trauma-informed care initiative that uses art as a means of promoting healing, self-expression and well-being. Its mission is to provide a safe and supportive space where individuals can explore their inner selves through creative expression. By combining art, storytelling, and community building, the Sunflower Soul Project strives to enhance mental, emotional, and spiritual healing, while also aiding individuals in cultivating a deeper sense of self-awareness. It is a resource for individuals to connect with one another, explore creativity, share stories, and engage in a therapeutic process that honors unique experiences while supporting one another on their healing journey. We aim to create a positive impact on the lives of those who connect with their art, uplift and empower individuals to overcome adversity while building resilience.
Interests
My interests in neuroarts are rooted in understanding how art, creativity, music, movement, and storytelling support emotional healing, resilience, nervous system regulation, and collective well-being. I am especially interested in how creative practices can be integrated into community health, leadership development, trauma-informed programming, and intergenerational healing.
I hope to contribute lived experience, community-centered perspectives, creative collaboration, and culturally grounded approaches to healing arts. I also hope to learn from researchers, artists, practitioners, and organizations exploring the science and impact of neuroarts so I can deepen and expand the reach of this work in communities nationally.
