healing, writing, and grief care

for creative & liberated life

Welcome! I’m mai.

I help people who care about healing and want to create loving and life-affirming ways of being — with themselves and in the world.


I work with people who are yearning to live and create in ways that heal themselves, their communities, and the earth.

Yet, they feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, ​and alone, often because they are carrying a lifetime of personal and collective loss, and generations of unprocessed pain.
