Storytelling as a Healing Art






Courses, Workshops & Talks


"The workshop I attended with Nancy Mellon offered me a window into my soul and the creative powers that reside there. What was remarkable was that the workshop did the same for each participant, and the result was an outpouring of creativity that made the room come alive with pleasure, excitement, awe, mystery, magic and deep healing. Her storytelling work is profoundly important, especially now when our world desperately needs the power of our collective imaginations to create transformations."
-- Zoe Weil, Institute for Humane Education, Surrey, Maine.
