The Bounce Project is a series of resources and trainings designed to teach the skills that build resilience so that when adversity happens, children, families, and their communities have the internal and external resources to not just bounce back, but to bounce forwad!

Healing Expressions, LLC

Let’s face it, life is just plain hard sometimes! Everyone will experience adversity at some point. Emotional capacity is the key to navigating adversity well. The more emotional capacity you have, the more hardship you can handle before you get overwhelmed and either melt down, shut down or blow up. The good news is that it is never too late to build more emotional capacity.

Healing Expressions is committed to resourcing families and communities who want to become more resilient and trauma-informed because we believe that resilient communities and families grow resilient kids!

“After two decades of working in the fields of trauma healing and crisis response, I have learned both the lifelong impact of adverse childhood experiences and the power of emotionally healthy and attuned adults in a child’s life to mitigate the impact of adversity.
