Book me for a salon or workshop!
I regularly lead in-person and online workshops on self-healing, mindfulness & embodiment, writing, visioning, holistic leadership, and self-care for social impact leaders.
I’ve led workshops for community groups, for-profit companies, and non-profit organizations including Riverside Community Care, Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, Livable Streets Alliance, Association of Professional Schools of International Affairs (APSIA), Harvard Kennedy School, the Local Environmental Action Conference, and elsewhere.
Check out my one-pager on workplace workshops to learn more about how I can support your team with stress-management, self-care, and mental/physical wellness.
I am also available to facilitate healing & recovery spaces at your conference.

“I loved Noelle’s super thoughtful, connected and personal approach!! She took time to address individual questions and make one-on-one connections. Also, I loved that we received all the information on a Google Doc to keep!”
Virtual Gateless Writing Salons
**Gateless is currently being offered as a six-month program focused on producing writing with the intent of publishing. Please email me to join the next cohort.**
An opportunity to gather with other writers from around the country to write new pieces, read, and receive feedback. The Gateless Writing method combines principles from Zen Buddhism and modern neuroscience to support writers in tapping into their deepest wells of creativity and write from their most authentic voices. Writers of all genres are welcome. Whether you have an existing project, want to get back in the writing groove, or want to get into writing for the first time, you will be in good hands. The group is typically 6 - 12 ppl and tends to be a mix of queer, disabled, and social justicey folx.

I will continue to attend salons and loving being involved in a writing approach that encourages and strengthens writing directly from the heart.”
