• Age of Intuition: Poetic Reasoning

    ByGordon Smith

    This eight-week series beginning January 19, 2025 elevates and centers the creative and imaginational dimensions of your gifted consciousness. Forget every rhyme scheme and iambic pentameter thumping your English teacher forced upon you. None of that is central to poetry’s curative properties now known and practiced in psychology  and clinical medical practice. Poetic Reasoning invites you to develop skills of surrender and to open doors of self-discovery.

    Participants will engage and practice Poetic Reasoning in a safe, supportive, and critique-free community. We will practice and open to the use of poetry as a tool of exploration. You will transcend your resistances and perfectionistic habits. Wider perspective, intuition, creativity, and freedom from the neuromajority’s constraints on thinking comprise just a few of the benefits. Meaning, awe, wonder, and delight are others. 

  • Creative Approaches for Gifted and Otherwise Neurodivergent Adults

    ByGordon Smith

    I’ve learned that there are alternative, unconventional approaches that can move people from pathology paradigms to expansive, growth orientations. These creative approaches, long given side-eye by traditionalists, are now being proven. I intend to bring more of these expansive processes into the world of ‘mental health’. New offerings in 2025 reflect these evolutions. You’re invited.
