I am Not a Bastard: Crafting my Way to Wholeness

Come and join me on my personal art therapy journey back to wholeness. As an individual who has experienced abandonment trauma, it is my hope that through these words and artwork you may find hope.

Through my autoethnographic research process using crafting and reflective poetry, I will traverse a metaphorical seaside to make sense of my personal lived experience.

With humility and gratitude I thank you for being here and for trusting me to walk in a good way with this research.

Healing is possible and you are not alone. We are not broken, we are whole. Miigwech and Dziękuję.
