Hello and welcome,

My name is Elena Solano and I am a clinical social worker, visual artist, embodiment practitioner and creative consultant.

I use she/her pronouns.

I believe that dreams offer pathways toward liberation and re-generation.

I am supported and strengthened by community and movement partners.

I am guided by principles of liberation psychologies and world-building philosophies in my community/group practice.

I conduct all meetings virtually.

Martha Crawford

Martha Crawford describes the focus of her work as having “evolved towards explorations of the psychologies of liberation, of archetype and depth psychology, dream work, active imagination, and frank discussions of existential concerns and mortality.”

I enthusiastically recommend any and all of her offerings, including her workshops, individual consultations, and all of her writing. Recordings of her periodic evening talks are available and are a nice introduction in case you are not familiar with her work.

robin herold’s patreon

robin herold (she/her) is a neuroqueer writer, bard, philologist, fool, & spiritual nurturer. She makes art dispelling white denial, coerced gender performance, & scaling modes of oppression—from the nuclear family, to the school, the corporation, & the state.

Her writing is a tool for unlearning internalized patriarchy, ableism, racism, capitalism, & hierarchy; it's a leap toward dis-investment from institutions upheld by these dominating systems of relation, & a leap toward a radical ethics guided by love.

robin and I have partnered to host Monstrosity in the Making: A Virtual, Creative Studio Space

Janine de Novais

Janine de Novais is “a writer, sociologist and teacher interested in how our liberation is a cultural project, a matter of (un)learning.”

She has just released a powerful new book, Brave Community: Teaching for a Post-Racist Imagination, which “shares a method for educators or anyone who wants to create empathetic and resilient conditions for learning about racism in order to intervene on it.”

Her periodic writing is also available via her substack, Kingdom of Culture.
