Creative and Reflective Writing Workshop for Health Practitioners
April 30 - June 4, 2026This four-session series is designed for health practitioners seeking to improve their creative and reflective writing skills. Each session will include discussion of a particular literary genre — such as memoir, fiction, and poetry — and feature group discussion of published work. Conversation around themes and questions in creative and reflective writing in the health humanities will also be a focus.
A workshop component will offer participants space to write, read, and try out new methods and approaches for prose and poetry, share feedback, and hone writing work with peers in a safe and encouraging environment.
As well as enhancing literacy skills, this series will provide an opportunity for health practitioners to explore their experiences through writing, and will enhance their understanding of the narrative potential of patient encounters. In a creative and collegial atmosphere, participants are invited to become part of a supportive community in narrative-based medicine.
